·Hello,
I recently came across this early- to mid-2000s Seamaster up for sale on a Japanese website. I would appreciate some help with the reference as I haven't been able to figure it out via an image search (seller has been no help on the reference). The serial number is 80440496 which dates the watch, I believe, to the early- to mid-2000s. I've never seen this dial configuration before and found it quite fetching with the black dial and 12-6-9 layout and the wide bezel. (Apologies as the photos appear to be over-exposed with weird reflections -- they are the seller's, not mine).
It's listed as 38mm in diameter, but I'm guessing that measurement must be including the crown as the proportions suggest that it's likely a 36mm case, especially as it has what appears to be a steel Bond-style bracelet (1501?) with 832 end links.
Thanks in advance for any assistance with identifying the reference for this Seamaster. Cheers.
