    Hi guys,

    So, I've stumbled on this Seamaster, what do you guys thing? Go, no go?

    [​IMG][​IMG][​IMG]


    I really want to get a 50s-60s Seamaster. I ended up getting a nice Connie C-shape and a Genève, but in both cases I was actually looking for a Seamaster. Maybe this is the one?

    Thanks for your thoughts!

    Cheers,

    Paulo

    Avoid - poorly done redial.

    How much do you guys think I'd spend on a non-redialed Seamaster? I've looked everywhere, but most 50s Seamasters I come across have been redialed. I'm going to Italy in a couple of weeks -- perhaps it would be easier to find something there? Could anyone recommend a shop in Rome or Florence?

    Start with the FS forum here - $500 or so should get you a nice example.
