Hello omega forum. Im currently looking for vintage version of current seamaster 1948. Does anyone know its reference ? Preferably with newer manual wind movement I found this on ebay cal 410 ref 2759. But not sure how good it is. Movement looks dirty. Anyone can point me buying vintage seamaster guides? Thanks for your help!
Your closest will be a 2576 bumper (late 40s to early 50s) or a 2848 full rotor (from mid to late 50s). The case design on the cal 410 is very similar as well, just a manual wind rather than automatic.
I'm very interested on this piece on ebay as pictured, but im not so sure if its a good watch, price is also seems a bit high, would appreciate member's thought on the link below. https://ebay.us/UBoUfM Thanks in advance.
We need better pictures to tell much, a head-on dial shot and inside caseback. I can't say it's bad but I sure can't say it's good. Can the seller provide more photos?
Are those homage Seamasters the same size as the originals? I never saw one way or another. Thanks Tom
Ok, look at the markers on the seconds subdial of the black watch.. Does the marker at 12 go well up the step while the marker at 6 is back from the step? Don't all the subdial markers look off-center? This clearly would indicate a repaint and relegate the watch to (maybe) an attractive wearer, but not collectible.
you have a good eye. anyways props to the OP as he is getting into vintage seamasters and no doubt will zero in on a nice one soon enough.
You are most welcome! A Squirrel was a great help to me and is still a big part of this hobby. Happy to pay homage to his contributions and to warmly welcome the next furry friends!
So do you, Janice! Fred looks nice and we are glad to have you with us! What (watch) are you wearing? (wruw)
