    This was my Dad's wstch. Bought in Lebanon. It's a Seamaster Calendar from around 1952 or so. First watch with a calendar made by Omega i think.

    If you don't count the original Cosmic triple-dates, then yeah, it's the first Omega calendar.

    Let's go with Omega's first automatic calendar watch.

    Love the black waffle dial on yours! :thumbsup:

    Do you have any photos without filters? It looks nice don't get me wrong but I'd like to see the true colors of the dial, nice to see how a dial aged over time

    I love the shape and placement of those date windows. Classic!
