Seamaster black dial. Is it genuine?

@river9 - Omega used various fonts through the fifties and sixties and I suspect that not every owner would be too worried about the exact font when a dial company redid a dial. I put a few here, but there are others:

Your watch looks to have a sixties font which wouldn't be correct for a bumper cal 355. Are the hour markers exactly mid way between the ticks? If they are, then a service dial seems a possibility.

Good luck, Chris

For what it’s worth, I do not believe this to be a service dial. There are too many small issues. The one that hasn’t been discussed yet but that jumped out to me straight away are the elongated hash marks are 3/6/9/12. Omega typically thickened the hash marks here, not elongated them.

Sorry I dont understand. Did you mean my Seamaseter or it was about the black dialed Seamaster already sold on Vietnamese watch forum, the one I talked about at the begining of this entry?

they paint everything with same brush over there. I think.
