Title: 24j Omega Seamaster w/Date Serviced SOLD

Description: EXCELLENT condition.  Made in about 1966 or 67 this good old work horse of a dress watch was really top of the line in precision timekeeping for its day. The in-house Omega Caliber 562 full rotor automatic movement is one of the finest movements ever made, by any mass produced brand. It has 24 jewels, a screwless Glucydur balance with Nivarox hairspring moving at 19,800 beats per hour/bph who's balance staff is protected by an Incabloc shock protector, swan's neck fine regulator and is adjusted to five positions and temperature. It is the same basic movement used in the Constellation and has been fully serviced, oiled and timed by Wayne and carries a one year service warranty. Wayne has also installed a new acrylic crystal and case gaskets. The crown is a signed Omega crown but may be a replacement. The case is one of the later models which had no removable bezel, only a main body and a screw on back. And the main body is a heavy 40 micron gold plate, not gold filled like the older versions. Click <HERE> to read about gold filled versus gold plated. Most use 20 micron, some stuff even 10 like Raymond Weil and other modern brands so 40 micron is pretty thick. Overall the condition is very good to excellent with some faint nicks on the body at most and a cool and unique gray or silver colored refinished dial. The indices are gold plated with gold plated Omega hands centered by onyx strips. Easy to wind and winds fast on the wrist from the motion of your wrist. On a brand new Hadley Roma dark brown strap. Measures 34.5 mm wide (not including the crown) x 39 mm long x 11 mm thick. {$425}  Item #6010
