First seamaster

[Bromega305]

Hello

I just picked up my first vintage seamaster. A 1956 2937-1 with cal 267. 36mm so it wears great. I did not see this dial variation on the reference often so I appreciate it. The sub seconds are so cool. It’s keeping great time now but I will need to replace the non original crown at some point.

Priced under $600, compared to what I saw I think the price was good. Its alittle rough but I love it. How did I do?

Congrats on your fist vintage and welcome. TBH, given the condition of the dial, I would not bother investing more in a crown. Just enjoy it, and if the crown bothers you, you can always upgrade to a better example at some point. That's the typical collector trajectory.

Thanks for the welcome! Not in rush to change anything on it.

Welcome to the forum. Congratulations on the first buy! Enjoy it and use this to refine your taste for your second one. That’s usually the trajectory!

Nice looking case style.
