Hello. First post so i shall introduce myself. Im from and currently live in Puerto Rico. Been reading and reading and reading for a while. Looking at models. Watching prices. Learning. Been wanting a vintage Seamaster for a couple of years. In the meantime a started collecting. Recently found this Seamaster 600 i thought looked good, for what seemed like a super fair price. However, seller didnt have much info on its history, just that it seemed to run well. Finally got it today! It looks great in my eyes. It seems to be running very well. I guess i cant tell if its all original, if it has been worked on etc. Haven’t opened it yet. By the engraving we can obviously tell its at least 58 years old. Came with a modern black leather strap but i immediately swapped it for a NOS Gruen from same decade that i had bought for a vintage Hamilton that i ended up returning for running erratically. Anyway, here are some pics for all u vintage lovers. Any info, recommendations, insight, please let me know.

So it was opened by professional to see the insides. Looked great. This one is actually from 1965. So turning 60 this year! Now im trying to find an original glass.
