    I bought this little stainless waterproof Seamaster (3 piece case) at a local country flea market this morning. It runs like a little top and is keeping great time. It looks to be in reasonably original condition but with the patina of its age. It has an Omega USA stainless bracelet. I know it's not rare or all that cool but I like to find them in the wild. Please excuse my iPhone pix.

    From the mid 1950s. It has a nice original two-tone dial. You need to find the correct washer to fit inside the back.

    A nice find, indeed - especially if the price was right!

    Nice find! Make sure to have the self winding system checked and lubricated. There were some premature wear problems with the caliber 500's automatic system.
