Another Early Seamaster Chrongraph Reference

Oct 17, 2008,07:53 AM
 

Hello Mr. Sohne, I appreciate the advice and next time I'll pm you when I have such a question. An owner of another early Seamaster with Cal 321, this one all in stainless, posted this picture of his watch. Do you know the reference for this model? It looks like the constant seconds hand is a replacement, assuming all register hands originally had alpha hands, as in the case of your watch. Or did Omega have different hand configurations? I am also curious whether the original ref 2907 would have had a crown with the Omega symbol on it. My bumper automatic Seamasters with beefy lugs and bezel from the early 50s have the notched crown with the Omega symbol. What makes you opine that the dial on the 2907 is a repaint? The angle of the picture appears to have obscured the "Swiss Made" signage at the bottom of the dial. I find that some some dials no matter how crisp the markings look less than crisp in pictures much larger than the original size. Thanks for indirectly reminding me that patience makes for a happier hunter in the end. Best, Karl


Ref???
