South of the border... down Mexico way...

Reference OJ2849 Cal 503 full rotor movement, non-stepped Pie-Pan dial with arrowhead markers, due to arrive south of the equator (which is actually south of Mexico, so technically its coming from North of the border, and across the pacific.

Will do some group shots eventually, but in the mean time, these are the seller's photos, and yes, it does have short hands which means Hoi can sleep at night. Even though EVERY date at six example in private hands has had long hands...

Its due for delivery on the 7th so mid-next week

Oh and here's the discussion thread of the watch originally: http://omegaforums.net/threads/seamaster-fans-got-gold.2130/

 

Ash,
This one is a nicer case than your other one. The inscriptions of the words seamaster and waterproof in the caseback are very light and the fact they are preserved here speaks to the nice case condition.

 

You think so? The other one looks pretty clean, the edges are sharper than they look in pictures, though the polishing is of a mirror like finish, even the bevel around the bezel is sharp on the 2627. Was the screwback caseback on the 2627 meant to have any markings?

 

When you get this one compare both cases side by side - I know they are not the same case but you'll probably be able to tell which one is closer to a mint factory example. I suspect you'll find this one is nicer. No, the 2627 didn't have any engravings in the back AFAIK.

 

Hmm ok, the cool thing about it being a 2627 is one day if need be I can buy another 14K 2627 and swap the mid-case given there are no markings serials or identification on it.

 

Entirely possible, if it were here in Australia it'd probably have been miss-spelled

 

This one is the same model as the one on this site:

There's more in the pipeline... currently another 2 18K dress Omegas, not Seamasters but De Luxe dials and other things

 

They're site is broken a bit, it previously had a description. Its a factory original dial though.

 

He has some sweet stuff...

 

Mmm he's like a 10 years older version of you Kyle

 

Been trying to buy that pair of pink gold cal.352 connies without success since 2009.

 

Yes, he bought 2 of Kstars 18k De Luxe Connies at one time

He even has one exactly like this, except his is not NOS
