·Hello, all omegaforum’s members.
I want to share another one in my collection.
It is seamaster with uncommon larger size than usual (36.5mm excluding crown) with chronometer officially certified in the triple case reference (2657, 2494, 2521-10SC).
In my opinion:
- Gold cap case is OK (with some polished)
- Chronometer-rated, bumper automatic movement with caliber 354 (17 jewels) is original , dating around 1955 (serial number 14,919,xxx). This movement is correct and clean.
- Dial with applied omega logo plus crosshair is original and uncommon
- Elongated rhombus hour-markers are quite attractive (double rhombus at 3/6/9/12 o’clock)
- Naiad crown is original, which I believe, it is correct time-period with this watch.
- Dome crystal with omega-signed is original too.
In the beginning, I searched in old topic which I created in the past and many omegaforum’s members posted nice examples, I found many of seamaster with chronometer officially certified over there.
(https://omegaforums.net/threads/my-...tre-officially-certified.112122/#post-1482023)
While I focused only seamaster with ‘applied omega logo’ (with same font’s style of “seamaster” word), I found only this example.
For the first time, I concerned about my watch because this example used “slant leg of M” in AUTO"M”ATIC instead of “straight leg” like mine.
Nonetheless, when I search in a model without seamaster word, I found this two examples using the same font with me (straight leg). I compare three of them, mine was the leftmost one.
Finally, when I compared with my old seamaster, I found that it was the same hour-markers and same font’s style (straight leg of M). The difference between both of these is "applied omega logo" and "crosshair" added in my new watch (pics attached below). So I believe that my old seamaster was legit too.
My wrist shot:
Thanks for your kindness comment about my watch.
I really want to thank you for your help from omegaforum’s members that I talked and he gave his useful opinion via pm.
