Up for sale is this original 1951 Omega Seamaster Cal. 351 2577. Asking $425 shipped in the U.S. for Omegaforum members. 馃榾 Everything looks original except for the crystal, which I replaced with a genuine Omega replacement. White guilloche/waffle dial has aged to a more ivory colored state, and could possibly be cleaned if desired. Case shows some wear, normal for a 60 year old watch. Watch runs fine and movement is clean, although I cannot guarantee accuracy since I do not know service history. Sold on this USA stretchy mesh bracelet. Watch looks better in real life IMO.

Would have been me if I'd been visiting the forum like I should have

Ya snooze, ya lose! 馃榿 (J/K Giles)

I can't believe you all passed on Mike's 351 with the tear drop lugs. I let it ride almost a week before I thought enough time had passed for one of you newer collectors to snag it. Tear drop lugs are like crack to a JLC guy.

I did like it but I didn't love it...and there's the small issue of the incoming that's due tomorrow ... I would have found the funds if I loved it but...
I know I should have snapped it up from a collectors point of view but I have to love them all.
