Is the om system om 1 worth buying used?

Yes, I think the original OM System OM-1 is a good used buy. It was announced in 2022, and the OM-1 Mark II followed in 2024, so the first model is one generation back. As my buying used page says, a body that's one or two generations old is often most of the camera for a fraction of the price.

Before you pay, budget for a new genuine battery, since old ones lose capacity.

Once you have the body, the lens matters more. Good picks from the Micro Four Thirds range:

• Olympus M.Zuiko 12-45mm f/4 PRO for an everyday zoom
• OM System M.Zuiko 100-400mm f/5-6.3 IS II for wildlife reach
• Olympus M.Zuiko 25mm f/1.2 PRO for low light
