although i m far from expert on Omegas.

Looks good to me, but I would ask for a few more pics, before agreeing to buy.

Does it have the papers and cards, and do the serials on the card match the one on the case?

If a picture the size of a postage stamp is the only thing dealer is willing to give you, I'd pass no matter how good the deal seems. Even if it's a gen, chances are there's something they don't want you to see.

yeah it comes with the box and cards. is it possible to ask for pic of serial number of a card from a dealer?

If not the full number, I would expect them to at least show a partially obscured picture.
I would also ask for several better quality pics, and ensure they are who they say they are - do they have any reviews and/or a legitimate website?

Same as anything when buying off the internet, do your homework on the seller. See if there are any contact numbers and call them directly. If there are no contact details, or only via a form, I would be suspicious.

If you can pay by credit card, do that as it may offer some protection if it turns out to be a scam.

yeah,thanks for the advice.. now i am waiting for another picture from the dealer. after checking around, the dealer actually have a small watch shop at the other city.. so i actually believe it to be gen also,just the fact buying them online really make me cautious
