Very attractive pair...
By the way,could you tell if a dial is switched from another watch by looking at it and check the case# and caliber#?One of mine has the Swiss Made and the other has T Swiss Made T.Both of them originally have the lume on the markers amd hands though they've been re-painted.
Best,Skinnyguy
Incoming!- two beauties I couldn't pass up
a 1964 Omega Seamaster Automatic De Ville with a very clean 550 movement and a 1957 Omega Seamaster Automatic Sub-Second with a caliber 490 from a good buddy in Florida. Expect to have them in my hands within a couple weeks. Dials and hands are original f...
Very nice.
A nice pair. I particularly like the cal 490. Models with the sub-seconds, full rotor cal 490 or 491 seem to be fairly uncommon. I guess the fashion was moving towards sweep seconds models at this time.
very nice!
i especially like the deVille! some wrist shots please once you have them.... J
Both are realy cool, but the small Seamaster with the small seconds
Is a fatal beauty! Congratulations, mrsnak. Aaah, dont shout it too loud that your first Omega is from 64, I know a shark here who will want to eat it! Al the best, Nicolas
LOL, I knew that when I posted the dates
It's also very coincidental that the Seamaster is the same year as Dr. No's, with similar markers
It will not be hard...
to find a correct replacement crown in SS... they are on offer quite often. nice pieces indeed... kind regards Erich
Lumed hands ?
I wonder if the hands of the De Ville should have some lume instead of black paint (to match the markers)? Can you show us the bottom of the dial, is it Swiss Made or Swiss Made T ? Best regards. Hoi
Not sure how I will progress on this
I'm going to wait to see how they look in person. Lume is not a big issue for me on watches of this vintage.

very nice. a pair of great watches by the looks of things
i already have a seamaster deville from 1964 so yours is safe although mine is a 560 not a 550. Graham
Whew! I was worried...
Thanks Graham, I usually don't like to announce incomings as to not jinx the transaction ;-), but these were too nice not share.
Now I know what's . . .
. . . on the menu for the next meeting of the u-t-r gang ;-) . . .
