Actually, I think you have the dial for the Ref. 2520:
However, the Ref. 2520 and 2577 had interchangeable case backs. The Ref. 2520 was only made in solid gold (14K or 18K), while the Ref. 2577 case was made in steel, gold-cap and several colors of solid gold.
Some of the gold cases had both references:
I am assuming your watch is gold capped rather than gold. Therefore, I'm not sure whether this would have been the correct Omega dial for this watch. But it certainly fits the case perfectly.
As we like to say in my profession..."close enough for government work",.

Very much appreciated, gator πŸ˜€
Yes, it is in SS with probably a gold-capped bezel. My concern was mainly with the Seamaster "S" & "r" being related to a later reference and not having matched the type font of the 2577s' but I suppose that given this is a later -11 reference, it may be plausible(?) I can for sure kid myself into believing that it is ..."close enough for government work"... I really like that statement! 😜
In any case, it seems I now have a not-so-distant relative to this 14k rose gold 2520 beauty which just landed on my watch guys work bench!

Comparing the dials, I so much more prefer that intricate minutes track now on the 2577, than the one on this 2520. Not complaining though! πŸ˜—
Thanks again! πŸ‘
