I need some help identifying my vintage Seamaster...

Based on some online research, it appears my dial is that of a Cal. 351, however the movement says 354. Has anyone come across a 354 movement with this dial?
Some backstory, I bought it from a local pawnshop for what I believe to be a good deal. I would just like to know exactly what I have so I can begin some sort of restoration/servicing. Thanks!

I wouldn’t worry too much about the dial / movement combo. There were so many dial variations in the 50s that it’ll be difficult to know 100% that it’s original to the watch, but the Seamaster font looks fine for the era. I’d say the fact that you got it from a pawn shop and not a watch dealer is a good sign too.

Nice watch! Get it serviced before regular use.

Looks legit (and attractive IMO) at first glance. The watch reference number will be inside the case-back.

Get the case number, you may find an omegra crystal for it (or at least its exact size/reference on CousinsUK or Boley website for example)

Thank you. Sorry for the newbie questions, I'm new to the watch game haha. Cheers.
