Could you please give your opinion on this vintage Seamster.

The sellers says that it is all original and manufactured in 1962.

It looks very attractive to me but I can't tell whether is a solid buy.

Many thanks

Crown looks to be a replacement and are there pictures of the movement? I'd say it's an attractive looking watch. What's the price?

It looks like an honest seamaster pre deville.
I believe the crown is incorrect, it should have a scalloped style crown.
Also, I’m not quite sure of the tritium dial without any indication on the Swiss made area.
You should tell us the price if you want to know if this is a good buy or not 😉

Hook "S " and drop "R" plus bracelet are a bonus


all but the crown appears ok to me

Here is a photo of the movement.

I am looking into a swap for a Heuer valued at around US$ 1,400.

Thank you for the opinions so far.

Movement dates to ‘62, so no T markings shouldn’t be a concern for this dial FYI

Hi there. Fancy that, it's my listing 😀 feel free to ask away and I can provide further pictures etc beyond the ones eBay allows. I did wonder about the crown. I almost certainly have a correct one in my stash. IMO the dial is entirely legit. I almost didn't put this up for sale as I really like it, but with two constellations landed in a week, some bits have to go out of the door to keep the cash flowing.

Just to double check, I've not had any communications about a trade, from anyone. So if you have spoken to the 'seller' about trading for this watch, someone is pulling a fast one and has lifted my pics.
