Is it also a new case back?
Thanks for your answers, as I'm on to buy a Seam Master 300, but I don't know the Omega reference system, and I don't want to make mistakes.

Question on Vintage Seamaster 300s
Hello Guys
I thought I knew the SM300s well, I have had many of those and have been reading quite a lot on them. Non-date usually with cal. 552, date usually with cal 565. References 165.024 and 166.024 respectively.
I have recently seen many ref. 165.0024 (an extra zero). I have associated these with recently supplied replacement backs from Omega )post year 2000) but I am told instead that 165.0024 is an original reference from Omega.
Is it really? Were any SM300 actually branded as 165.0024?
Thanks for your knowledge
