The Watch
The Speedmaster might be the watch that made Omega a household name (and took it to the moon), but the Seamaster has been around quite a bit longer and has its own incredible legacy worth talking about.
First released in 1948 in celebration of Omega’s centennial anniversary, the Seamaster became a worldwide success and was the brand’s top seller for a long time. Today, it’s the longest-running name in the Omega catalog and still holds a special place in plenty of collectors’ hearts.
This ref. 2846-2848 1SC definitely deserves that special place. Powered by the workhorse in-house Omega cal. 490 automatic winding movement and featuring a broad-lugged stainless steel case with silver crosshair dial, this watch offers excellent wrist presence and exudes style and history like very few watches can.

The Condition
This is one of a kind!
Look at the condition of this pristine Omega Automatic Seamaster. We have not seen many vintage watches in this condition. The case is a "beefy lugs"-case and is amazing with well preserved chamfers. The case have some minor scratches from use, but just small as you can see.
The crown is original and in good condition even if it’s a bit worn.
The dial is the most spectacular detail of this watch - a rare 100% original dial and beautiful aged "pumpkin"-lume. There is some signs of ageing but as you can see, it’s a true stunner!
