Classic vintage Seamaster circa 1963 with silver sunburst no-lume dial. Good condition overall and very appealing on the wrist. Comes with long 1036 beads of rice bracelet with #11 end-links, a few links have some bite marks on the reverse side, not a functional issue. The dial shows faint superficial spotting to the lacquer upon close inspection, I've included photos of the dial from various angles under harsh lighting where the spots are exaggerated. The 34.5mm case and bracelet show some wear but nothing distracting IMO. No service history known, but cal 562 is running well and date turns over properly.

As always, take a close look at the photos, which show the watch accurately, and let me know if you have questions.

My asking price is $780 USD by PP F&F, Zelle, bank wire, or other fee-free electronic payment. The watch can be sold for less without the bracelet if you prefer. The watch and I are in the US (Colorado). Shipping included within the US.

Just for transparency, unfortunately I had to cancel the sale and refund the payment. In final testing before shipping, I noticed an issue that needs to be addressed. My apologies to the buyer, I had tested it previously and it was working fine. Better that it happened before shipping, of course. Obviously, I have informed the buyer by PM, and he will have the first option to buy after it is repaired.

The issue was addressed by my watchmaker, and the watch is sold (again) to the original buyer. Thanks to him for his patience and to OF as always.
