This is a very sharp Seamaster Deluxe model dating back to 1956/7 and featuring a rare solid 14k gold case featuring hooded lugs. This watch was purchased from a fellow OF-er in 2018.

The solid 14k gold case, manufactured by Jonell in Canada, is what makes this watch stand out. It features unique and dramatic hooded lugs. The case is very well preserved and is quite heavy - the case and movement weigh approximately 39 grams.

Two tone dial is original and unrefinished and features gold arrowhead markers and dauphine hands. The dial has some age spots.

Inside is an automatic cal. 500 movement. The watch was serviced in 2018 by the previous owner at United Watch Service in San Francisco.

Reference: GX6565

Serial number: 15,xxx,xxx

The watch measures approximately 34mm without the crown but wears larger due to the hooded lugs.

Omega signed crown.

Pictured strap and aftermarket gold plated Omega buckle included.

Price: $1200 USD (net) obo + shipping

Lots of feedback as buyer and seller that can be provided upon request.
