··LemaniacFrom my private collection here is a special Omega Seamaster “bumper” with the sought after chronometer grade “micro regulator” Caliber 352 RG from about 1951.
The watch is in a very nice condition for its age. The watch is however NOT original as it was delivered by Omega. Hence the low price.
The dial has been restored/refinished. The pictures shows the condition which I would describe as well executed. It sits in is a ref 2576-11 case. Originally the movement was cased in a solid gold OT2520 reference case (confirmed by extracts from the Omega archives that will follow the watch). I can only speculate, but guess the case have at some time been melted for gold.
The 2576 case is period correct, and in my opinion is looking very good.
The watch is running well and keeping good time. It was fully serviced last year. The full story is here: http://watchguy.co.uk/service-omega-seamaster-calibre-352-2/
This is a rare chance to own a fine caliber 352RG watch for less than silly money.
The movement itself in this condition may be worth the price I am willing to accept for this little gem.
Case: Great condition, with only very minor marks. It measures 34m in diameter without crown. 18mm lug width.
Caseback: Screw-down type marked ref 2576-11.
Movement: Lovely and fully serviced caliber 352RG. Running spot on. It is still under warranty from its service last year (until March 2014).
Dial: Restored/Repainted dial. Professionally executed and looking like “new”.
Hands: Dauphine style. Good condition.
Crystal: New replacement (unsigned).
Crown: Correct and signed. It is a new replacement crown and is a bit tight to wind. It looks and works perfectly.
Strap: Good condition ostrich leather strap with unsigned stainless steel buckle.
Price: EUR780. + shipment at cost. OBRO
Shipment: The watch and I are located in Norway. I will be helpful to assist in keeping import taxes at reasonable levels. Shipments may also be arranged from within the European Union (will normally be possible about once every 14-days). Only tracked shipments accepted from my side.
