Omega 2572-7 sc

konung39 · Dec 25, 2024

Hello everyone!
I came across this model of women's Omega. Please tell me a couple of questions.
Firstly, I don't really understand how the movement is attached to the case. Around the movement there is a stamped insert with 4 tongues that simply rest against the back cover and press the mobement to the front of the case by the dial. And that's it. Is that how it should be?
On omegawatches.com this model is listed as seamaster, and the movement is listed as "automatic".

Is that correct? Was the mechanism replaced in this watch?

The movement holder ring with flaps is well known from other Omega watches. It is original.

Thank you!
And what can you say about the movement, is it as it should be or should it be automatic?
And I don't understand why on omegawatches this model is listed as seamaster, just because of the screw-down case? There is no seamaster inscription anywhere on them.

Early Seamaster watches did not always have Seamaster written on the dial.

There seems to be a discrepancy in the Omega database regarding that reference. This case would appear to be too small for a cal 352, which is a bumper movement. It appears that there may have been a transcription error where 352 was substituted for 252.

My watch is about 1951 by the serial number of the movement.

Hello
Not too much on the forum I can see about these 1950's ladies watches. I also haven't seen a picture with Seamaster on the dial for the 2572. I bought this recently on ebay for my sister in...

there is a newer watch, about 1954, and with the same movement, a different mount in the case.
I wonder from what year they started to mark them as seamaster.

Yes, I think it’s just a typographical error. Here is a listing for another Omega with cal. 252 that shows it as manual winding:

Here is a picture from the old Ranfft database:

I think the “Seamaster” name began appearing on Omega dials sometime around 1951, but not all models at first. Gradually phased in.

Hope this helps,
