    I’ve bought 5 gilt dial Seamasters recently so I’m going to be listing a few over the next few weeks as I narrow down to a couple of examples.

    First up is one of the best and I’ve really struggled to make the call to list it. It appears fully original down to the dial, hands, crown, crystal and bracelet with an extremely sharp case and is in excellent condition overall. I’ll be genuinely sorry to see this one go as the condition is so good, but I need to free up some watch funds.

    Terms:
    Price: £1495 reduced to £1250 net to me.
    UK shipping included. RoW at cost.
    Watch is in the UK.
    No returns.

    Dial:
    Factory original black gilt dial in very good condition, not redialed or refinished. Tritium inlaid hour indices and matching hands. A couple of very light and minor marks that I cannot capture in a picture but overall a great example of a factory glossy dial.
    Please note, the marks in the pictures are almost entirely down to the crazing in the crystal.

    Case:
    Original stainless steel case ref 166.003. I’ve owned around six or seven 166.003’s and this is by far the best case I’ve seen. It’s in Excellent condition, appears completely unpolished with sharp edges and facets and original factory brushing and polishing.
    Original old logo, low profile crown.
    Original old logo Omega crystal. Crystal has some minor crazing. I’ve been happy to leave it as it’s original and only visible at certain angles but the new owner may wish to install a new crystal.

    Movement:
    Omega caliber 565. In very good condition, no corrosion, damage or mis-matched colours. All functions work as they should. Service history is unknown.

    Bracelet:
    Omega Beads of Rice bracelet with No.11 Endlinks. Suitable for wrists up to around 7.25”.

    I’ve had some questions around the dial and the movement so I’ve uploaded better photos.
    Also dropped the price to £1350 Ono.

    Dial - the dial is very good. The vast majority of the marks in the pictures are on the crystal. The only marks I can see on the dial are minor ones around the centre point when someone has marked it removing the hands (shown in picture). Other than that the dial is excellent.

    Movement - pictures added. In very good overall condition. All functions work as they should.
