·More than likely a 2848 is my guess.

·Going by your fearsome looking wrist, it is whatever ref # you tell us it is, Sir.

··Oooo subtitles!It could be from one of 2 families, show the caseback to narrow it down. I am leaning towards 2577, but as noted above it could be a later 2846 (not 2848, that is the sub second full rotor fat lug)

·Hi Ralix, welcome to OF 😀
Your Omega is a ref 2577 (unless your wrist are really big and it is the 36.5mm jumbo variety 2494) from the early fifties/late forties.

··Oooo subtitles!Too slow 😜😜😜
To be fair there still are another couple of refs it could be but a caseback shot and a good idea of the diameter will narrow it down.

What other refs could it be? 😀

Bearing in mind the screw on back and reported ~34mm size, it's most likely a 2577 though. I think strictly speaking the 2577 is usually described as 35mm exc crown.

·Well I was thinking 2767 was a possibility if it had a push on back, and I think there were some smaller case fat lugs too. Just when I think I've got my head round 1950s Seamasters, another variation pops up!

I believe that there are some case shapes that changed refs. during the production run - I believe that the 2494 had a identical predecessor with a different reference number for instance.
I don't know if there is a 2577 predecessor, but most of the 'not-a-ref-2577-34/35mm-Seamasters' are post 2577 and have the newer Omega logo - the logo on this one is the earlier type that was discontinued around 1953. The earlier type of logo means it can't be a full rotor movement, so no 2846/2848 either.
