    Indeed, this is a beauty that does not appear, often. You know what you are doing, obviously.

    Thank-you.

    The printing was not always present on these watches.

    Looks excellent to me.

    Very beautiful! :)

    I especially like the minute track of pearls... Reminds me of the ones on my constellation, and the different sizing of text. I have to say I haven't seen many on a Seamaster!

    Or it's hidden under the crystal in the picture. Nice watch and uncommon dial!

    That's one fine looking watch with a style of dial I've never seen before. Is it yours or are you considering it? If it's the latter I would snap it up sharpish!

    Sometimes the tension ring on generic crystals covers slightly more of the dial than the Omega original, and the "Swiss Made" gets hidden.

    The "SWISS MADE" is very much there just under the six hour marker. Just difficult to see. See photo below.

    Yes you are correct but in this case the "SWISS MADE" is visible.

    Well, I am no expert but even to my eye this is a very special piece. It seems to be a Seamaster chronometer which has had a great deal of attention lavished on it - an 18k solid gold case, a very late cal 352 chronometer with the RG regulator and even a guilloche chapter ring (!), now that we can see it close up. It makes you wonder if this was not a special order of some sort . . . and is that a lead seal in the caseback where we would expect an o-ring? And once again we can see that the chronometer Seamasters did have a different 'S', with a flat top to the coathanger style.
