Vintage Omega Seamaster bumper automatic

Vintage Omega Seamaster in classic beefy lugs steel case. These older steel cases have taken on iconic status with watch collectors as they sit somewhere between sports watch and a classic dress watch.
This vintage Omega Seamaster features an all original white dial which has aged to a wonderful cream colour with a few light patina spots. The dial also boasts steel applied Breguet numerals at the 12, 3 and 9 o’ clock positions. A large sub-seconds register sits in the lower portion of the dial occupies the spot where the 6 o’clock numeral marker would typically sit. The remaining hour markers are polished steel applied arrowhead indices. Overall it is one of the more attractive patterns Omega has produced.
