Vintage Seamaster help

Wizzar · Sun. 5:19am

I'm looking to buy vintage Seamaster and recently I looked at something like this but I dont have any other informations I just like how it looks. Can anyone more experienced tell me whats the year, if possible reference and I was wondering if it is bumper or some earlier versions of 50x movements? Thanks in advance, I was trying to do the research first but unfortunately Im still not sure, there was many different similar referencies of 50s Seamaster I belive, is it 2846?

I find it difficult to say with any certainty on the information and photos that you provide but, looking at the case and dial I’d guess that the movement is either a 351 or 354 and the case is a 2577 or a 2767.

Best way to find out is the unscrew the case back.

This watch looks good to me. It just sold for $1k in a Yahoo Japan auction. I was a bidder, but I didn't think it was worth that price, even with the buckle, even without added tariffs. YJ auctions are no bargain at the moment.

Anyway, the auction is over for more than a day, so I don't know why you are posting it now. If someone is offering it to you, they are using the auction photos, so be careful.

I found it somewhere in the internet, I didnt even know it was sold one day ago. I was just wondering what reference is and what movement is inside, because I like this style and design and it's in my mind for some time already. If I know reference I can search for one for me to buy.

Thx for warning anyway, I suppose there are situations of using fake photos to sell something

In your place, I wouldn't worry so much for searching about a specific reference since you know the design you're looking for. There are a number of references that have this general look. What's harder is to find any one of them in good condition at a fair price, so it's best to keep your options open. As @Spruce noted, there are some bumpers that look like this, also some full-rotor movements with the same general design, like a 2846 or 165.009. I think there are one or two 5-digit references that are similar also.

I do not believe this is any of the references mentioned above.

What size is the case (excluding the crown)? If 36mm, it’s probably a full rotor 2854 ref. If the case is 34.5mm, I’m not sure what ref it is.

Here is the listing, Phil. Very little info. No-date, no-lume - definitely in your wheelhouse. 😀
