    Hi there

    I would appreciate your thoughts on this 1950's sea master, the pictures are not great unfortunately especially of the movement

    Regards

    Rich

    O am a long way from an expert, but dial looks original. It's a manual movement, which I can't recall on seeing in Seamasters. What is the caliber number? Do you have a photo of the inside of the caseback, which will have the model number.

    Looks like an original two tone dial.
    I'm guessing mid 50's Seamaster. Manual wind..perhaps 28x caliber.. I'll let the experts decide!! :)

    Well it's definitely a manual movement but the dial says automatic so something is not kosher there...

    There were plenty of hand wind Seamasters.

    Agree with Kyle movement photo is a different watch.

    True, but this one should be automatic, probably a bumper movement

    Edit: looks like a different watch to me as well

    Ok here's some more pics I would appear the pic I had before of movement was not meant to be for the watch

    Looks ok, and the movement should be a 50X. It looks likes an original watch but dial has a little age.
