Hello

Just acquired this Vintage Seamaster Jumbo as a more dressy companion to my SeMPC Ti. Found a gold plated Seamaster Jumbo in good condition. It's a ref 2494-1 2657 with a cal 342 movement with a serial number 127xxxxx dating it roughly to 1950-1951. Nice,as my parents are born 1949 and '51. To me everything seems quite original, what do you think?

Cheers,
Vesa

 

Congrats on your first purchase!

Wear it in good health!

 

Congratulations!!!!. Looks great.

 

welcome to OF

nice watch - enjoy!

 

She’s a real beauty! I see no issues whatsoever.

 

Thanks for your comments and compliments.
I did some research before buying, but it's still nice to get verification from more experienced people. The same seller was offering a PiePan Constellation with a wrong movement (552) inside, so...

Thanks again,
V

 

Wow, it is beautiful. What diameter is it ?

 

It's 36 mm, compared to the more common 34,5 mm size.

 

Nice

 

Your first, but most certanly not your last

 

The letter "M" in the automatic has straight legs. It should be wide legs from my experience. But i can be wrong. Its worth looking it up
