Check this out! Omega seamaster limited edition 1948 Automatic, 38mm case, METAS cal. 8800 family, perfectly balanced subsecond subdial (glad they ditched their modified subsecond 1120 movement), AND FINALLY SHORT CENTRAL SECOND HAND! Best gift ever for m...  

But as people says... Picture tells stories... 😉

That indeed is a beauty

No message body

Though not longer but I wish it was a bit thicker... Or used alpha hands 😂 ...  

And it's not just that they're short relative to the overall case size and dial, but that they appear disproportionate (length of hour hand relative to length of minute hand).

Seems that the hour hand got the same size as the subsecond hand on other version, lol! 😂 But idk, I prefer this one cz it's easy to differentiate between the minute and hour hand now as sometimes I got confused with mine while reading the time in a glanc... 

. . . if it had a black waffle dial.

Next year probably they going to produce one with gilt black waffle dial, and platinum case... And it's out of my reach 😂

...  

Please post more about this piece.... Pretty please... 😌 Verrryy nice one, man! Best, Jev

Mine is a 1950 chronometre cal. 343rg, need I say bumper...

+1 for the goosebumps! Same feeling when they're releasing the trilogy trio!

Mine is not a Master Chrono though... ...  

Atleast it's chronomètre 😂 Love it, man! Thanks for sharing!

['49 Ω ref 2576 cal 343] . . . but the original owner wanted it back in the worst possible way, so it was traded back for a ref 2364. Art ...  

Hope that the owner cherished it more now....

. . . but it looks as though he's paring down his collection, and this one may be on the chopping block.

I was sorry to hear about your loss

things can be replaced

personally i like the subsecond subdial version. IMHO the hour hand seems too short on the other version - or is it only me ?! Best, mahesh.,

But so does the minute hand, but I wonder if this is just an optical illusion due to the minute markers being so close to the center of the dial instead of back where we are used to them. Obviously just a design choice, but the dial seems sort of “off”. ... 

....my only complaint would be the engravings on the case back crystal. Does anyone know the process for purchasing these watches? Pre-order? Boutique only? Thanks.

I prefer to have a solid back rather than laser etched sapphire back that obstruct the view of the movement

Which is nice imho 😍

...  

Love everything about it!

Was hoping to see the one like in the video and shared press picture then look what it is live in basel (credits from IG) They still can't stand to not ruin it! The only thing that need to be elongated is the hour hand not the second hand... Oh why....? H...  

hi everyone.... I am very excited about these... But I was also excited about the Alaska Project along with Chuck Maddox ...and once we saw it we both did not buy...( had them on order). ok back to the new Seamasters... The original was issued in 34 mm st... 

. . . when it comes to the hour and seconds hand. At first, I thought the larger case size might've been the cause for the mismatch, but on reflection, probably not. My guess is Omega didn't have properly sized hands available in time for Basel and went w...

. . . will be changed by the time production rolls around. Thanks for sharing these pics, Jev. Art

This is the Omega version of the Rolex hour hand debacle when they released the Explorer I in 39 mm diameter for the first time. That hour hand was way too small as well.

. . . couldn't get a matter this obviously wrong sorted out. Perhaps these are mock-ups awaiting correction in the production process. Art

says hallo to the new 48 🤗 ...  

. . . nice! Just saw one earlier today at a pawn shop. Always wanted a jumbo ;-) . . .

a 2639. Have you made a picture?

. . . when I re-visit the pawn shop . . .
