Uh oh...thread drift!

 

I'm hoping to obtain something suitable for framing. I see nothing out there. When I search "Seamaster", I only find "Speedmaster" posters

 

Ok, I thought you meant just the poster as a electronic picture. Then you would probably need to search from Omega AD’s, as I think these where printed and distributed for them in the past. Please can you get me one also if you find one.

 

1972 Seamaster..........my precious.

Hey Jim, what the ??? are you on about?
Fill us in, my brother.

 

It's a British (and Aussie) thing Jimbo.

Google "Peep Show", a BBC comedy series that I got hooked on.

And to @mark corrigan, there is only one true "Seamaster" IMO.

 

Beautiful!

 

JanV - you mentioned above that Cosmic 2000s arent from 1972, but i found one for sale on the internet that claims to be from 1972 (picture attached). Thoughts? Thanks again!

 

1972 is possible as these were introduced in that year. This one has the original bezel; these did not survive well and most have service bezels. Impossible to say whether the crown is original as these also did not survive well, but service crowns are almost identical to the original so not such a big deal. Apart from that caveat, everything is correct but the lume looks unevenly degraded, though this may be due to the photography. On Chrono24 so likely to be expensive....

ETA: looked at the ad and he only says it's "approx" 1972 so could be any time up to late 70s. For an unserviced one I think that's about half the price again.

 

Thanks so much! What do you think is a fair price for this piece?

 

Half the price...

 

Thanks - any ideas where I might search for something similar at a fair price?

 

All wonderful watches
