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.

I don't at the moment I have asked for some more pictures I am not 100% sure it's still available but it had nice visual appeal

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...

It's a manual movement, which I can't recall on seeing in Seamasters.

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

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