    Description

    This VINTAGE 1964 Omega Automatic Seamaster, movement caliber 552, men's watch is a one owner watch that my father purchased new.  It has not been used regularly for several years, just on occasion to keep it running.  I have been wearing it regularly over the last several months and the timing is within a few seconds per day.  I have been retired for a number of years and just feel the time is right for it to go to someone who will appreciate what was taken care of for these last 57 years.
    There are some hairline scratches on the glass crystal which may be normal but still should be pointed out.  Two local jewelers have provided the price range I have listed this watch at.  A few foreign buyers have offered more but I prefer to sell
    to a domestic buyer as shipping and insurance are much less for both parties.
    The watch is 1964 because of the s/n 21833242 and the fluorescent hands have Tritium rather than Radium, as was used by Omega pre-1964.  To confirm that, below the 6th hour mark it says "Made in Switzerland T" which Omega used to signify the usage of either Radium (which would have shown an R rather than the T for Tritium).  The watch is 24 jewels.  The case no. is 165.002.  I took the watch to our jeweler so he would take the back off and permit me to take pictures of the back inside of both the watch and back cover to be able to include that information here.  I have also attached three photos to show that inside information.
    The watch band style shows No. 12 and 1502.  The stainless steel band style number appears to notate that it is oval link rice beads from what I have found on the internet.
    I have tried to include pictures that will show all elements but do feel free to ask if there are any additional pictures or questions you may have.  I have also just lowered the price a bit in case that will work for one of the interested parties.  I am seeing offers very close to my price and this should help make the difference.  Appreciate your interest.
