Are there Omega Seamaster "pre-bond" replicas?

Someone is trying to sell me a gen but it seems to be a good deal - $660 - whereas the pre-Bond models on eBay are going for over a grand. I have never seen a pre-Bond Seamaster replica.

Does this seem legit?

Edit: I'm blind - the watch is quartz which probably explains it.

I think Omega made an OMEGA SEAMASTER PROFESSIONAL 200M quartz divers watch back in the 80s, as I had one when I first started college that came from BC Clark. If I remember correctly mine was two-tone, which looked just like this one, but there was some gold on the bezel and the center link was gold. But, it was so long ago that I would do some research before buying.

Looks like the real deal to me.
600 is fair if it's in very good nick, you can get a tatty one for 400 or so.
They are a nice watch BTW, I had one in for service a month or so ago, the whole MVT can be pulled own, cleaned, oiled and re-assembled just like an auto.

That one's a screw back but be aware they also come with a snap back. Also, make sure the date set is working, it's a flush pusher above the crown.
