not as interesting as Le Bims post, but my Seamaster 30 has arrived!
finally and rather embarrasingly my Seamaster 30 has arrived from the US. when it actually arrived i dont know as i only found it on saturday when i went to the shed to get my power washer out and there, just inside the door, was a small pile of mail put ...
Congrats gmhutton!
Hello Graham! Congrats on the vintage Seamaster! I like the details of the textured dial, very cool! -MW
thanks Dr Ming. the texture...
thanks Dr Ming. the texture didnt show up in the internet pics so it was a very nice surprise when it arrived. best Graham
Congrats Graham.....
so your last piece has arrived..!!! You are the 64 king without doubt now....look forward to pics of the set. The dial detail on this is a surprise and a very nice touch. Look forward to seeing some of these pieces in the flesh sometime.. Yours, Andy.
thanks Andy and you can...
thanks Andy and you can see them any time you like. if you want to see everything i own you'll need to come to mine, but if you only want to see the 64's i have car and can travel. i know it sounds like a lonely hearts ad. i've had a lot of practise latel...

Beautiful piece and a great post :-)
Congratulations (again) to a great nice watch. I also like this diamond-textured dial. Wauw. Not something you see every day. Wonder how many have been mde of these..!? I am looking forward to your follow up post with all your 1964's in it Best regards Ha...
thankyou Hans. the dial is...
thankyou Hans. the dial is unusual and a bonus on top of all the other reasons to buy it. i'm sort of working on my 64 post as its for my 5000th which is coming very very soon. best Graham
Very interesting...
Hi G Nice watch , but the dial looks odd to me... Luminous hands and lum style markers and no lum ? Also the "Seamaster 30" font looks slightly off and the weight of the type is also odd. any thoughts? Best regards Bill
Bill, i've not had...
Bill, i've not had much time, but i've had a look at it under a loupe and i agree that the font looks a bit heavy, but it looks to be right apart from that. its possible its a very good redial. the way things are going at the moment i wouldnt be surprised...
Congrats on your new Omega
Hi Graham, Wow, congrats on your Omega Seamaster 30. I love the dial and the movement looks like it's in great condition. Regards, ED-209
thanks ED, although since Bill's question i'll have to do a bit more digging
now i've looked at it yet again under a loupe it is possible that the lume has been removed from behind the markers. its been done very well, but the dial appears very slightly darker in a little blob behind the markers so it could well have had lume orig...
It's a bit puzzling, Graham . . .
. . . I've no doubts about the genuineness of the dial because no one would go to the effort of creating the fine engraved pattern. I can't recall seeing a similar patterned dial from Omega, but the effort in creating this effect mitigates against the pos...
hey Art, kick me while...
hey Art, kick me while i'm down why dont you :))))))) i really dont know about the dial. i'm pretty convinced it is a genuine Omega one. the hour hand doesnt overlap the markers, it runs 'just' above them. there is a slightly darker mark behind each marke...
watch "face"
I would like to think that the minuteshand reaching up all the way to the 1 minute divisions is a typical feature of a vintage Omega ! cheerio, Ben.
having looked at it alongside other vintage Omegas i have to agree with Art & Bill
i've just been manipulating pics for my imminent post of all my 1964 watches and side by side with 3 other pieces from the same era i agree that the hour hand is longer than another dagger hand on a constellation so its possible the hands are replacements...
Agreed on minutes hands, Bernard . . .
. . . my comment was intended for hour hands, which usually travel just out of reach of the markers. From Graham's photos, it appeared there was an overlap with the hour hand, but that's apparently an artifact of the photos . . . most cordially, Art
i like the lovely diamond texture dial...
congrats, Graham, finally can see the wrist shots. very nice indeed! after seeing you SM 30, it makes me want to hunt for one in nearer future! vintage Omega, just can't resist its temptation! stefan This message has been edited by Stefan on 2010-01-26 06...
thanks Stefan. there are plenty out there if you look hard enough
i found a very nice 562 calibre 1964 seamaster last night, but i'm going to give it a miss i think. my car is having electrical problems which need paying for first. best Graham
thanks Ruckdee. i personally wouldnt...
thanks Ruckdee. i personally wouldnt have sent it unregistered, but as i paid by paypal i wasnt worried. if it doesnt arrive paypal refund you. very simple :) its nice to have it even though there is some question about dial/hand originality. best Graham
Congrats!
She's a beauty, Graham! I love the patterned dial. I don't recall seeing a Seamaster dial like this previously. You always have the most interesting finds. Cheers, Daos
Thanks for the second time...
Thanks for the second time today Daos, it is a lovely dial although there are some inconsistencies. it looks like the hands may be replacements. the lume has been removed from behind the markers and the font is heavier than usual so i think it has been fe...
