We have a new watch, folks!

Black gilt 2849 seamaster. Arrowhead / shark tooth indices. I’m in love

Beautiful. I always love the lugs on these. The case might be smaller than they'd make today, but the lugs give it great presence.

Thank you guys! It’s a lovely thing to behold on the wrist. Those arrow heads catch the light and glitter in ways photos can’t really do justice.

She’s a beauty! Black connies/ Seamasters aren’t everyone’s cup of tea. But the markers pop so much more when the lighting is right. Any collector should have one in their drawer, for me.

I have a rare silver 166.009 that have similar markers. Love them.

Arabics and daggers are always welcome. My first love was a 2849 with daggers

I am just thinking - was this watch ever made with rose gold or white gold markers? I only ever find these black dial 2849s with YG indices. I’d love to see one, if any of the seasoned veteran collectors out there have encountered any on their travels.
