·I have a watch with an 11.5M serial number that was identified as being from 1950 by Omega Museum.
This watch is slightly later than that, probably still 1950. Maybe early 1951. Can’t go by movement dating here, as it’s the cases that make them Seamaster, not the movements.
I think some case references had the engraving at this time and some did not. It’s very hard to identify early Seamsters as they don’t have any branding at the beginning (1948-9).

I have this 11.6M, no branding on dial or caseback:
