I want to share another watch in my collection ref.14777 62 SC, serial no. 18,312,2xx cal. 561.
Diameter was measured as jumbo (36.5 mm excluding crown), beautiful uncommon dial.

Ref.14777 was produced for mainly the Japanese market. The case back stamps will show 14777 61 SC and 14777 62 SC. (Data from @mondodec).

In real life, this dial style has some kind of reflection and difficult to take a photo.

It was yellow gold-cap version with “uncommon” style of dial.
I don’t know exactly name but may be “certain dial”.

In my opinion, it got original dial and hands, correct decagonal (thin) crown.
Furthermore, i believe that the crystal with cyclops was original too. It shows the omega symbol at the middle (as I shown)
Case was little polished (but in good shape).


From my research, Among ref.14777 the “gold-cap version” is harder to find when compare to “stainless steel version” (found only 5 gold-cap in records of @Banner Roar).

From “Extract from the archives by Omega” ( @Banner Roar), this one gots serial number different from my watch only less than 100 (mine was earlier).
So, I believe that my watch was produced in February 1962 too.


My watch:



I only found the same style of dial in ref. 14777 from @Banner Roar but with different style of crown.

from Desmond’s blog.

Also, useful information from @Banner Roar and beautiful examples (of 14777) from him.


Finally, my wrist shot:


Thanks for watching and thank you for many expert that I asked via pm in this forums.

Rather "Curtain" than "Certain" I think 😉

Great looking watch, congrats!

And my Seamaster 14761. I’ve seen these dials described with several different appellations: curtain, tapestry and cote de geneve being the most common. Whatever you call them, they are uncommon and uniquely beautiful.
