    I have recently serviced ($180 in Caracas,Vzla) and replaced with new original acrylic, my late dad´s Omega Seamaster CK 2577 first genenration with the bumper caliber 354 (which is not a rotor, and adds caracter to the piece, you can feel heavy bumping inside). Mine its all correct and original, screwback with the seamaster engraved. With the three types of lumes, all fadded different, the hands are still light green. just added a leather or metalic mesh strap and it looks gorgeous. I will appreciate now a little more the "Beefy" lugs. Its is a small watch, but has presence. I love the sectored waffle dial, already aging well in a beige tone. Thank you very much for your knowledege.

    Thank you for another excellent video on the vintage Omegas. The Classic style of the 50s, 60s, and 70s models are very intriguing to me. Only I’ve never had the opportunity to buy one yet. Hopefully I will come across one in my travels. Thank you again for the excellent content.

    Iam spending lot of time learning about those early seamaster with bumper caliber since Iam desperately looking after one, but I have been facing two issues ...the first, on the fact that so many aren't genuine at 100% weather it's the dial, crown or hands...I've seen more non original pieces than genuine ones ....
    And the second is related to the prices which has absolutely skyrocketed since a year or two
    Soo now I am learning more and more the get the right one I can afford (mainly thanks to your work actually)
    Thank you very much for your work, I watch all the videos and especially those ones

      You're welcome. Glad you enjoyed my videos. Unfortunately, the prices of vintage watches will only continue to go up. Believe it or not, there are many private Omega collectors who have a high degree of knowledge about vintage pieces and will pay a lot for an all-genuine piece that is in great shape. I know a handful of these collectors and they are very quiet and under the radar. You won't find these guys in forums criticizing other collectors' watches. Guys who know their stuff are usually very quiet and mind their own business.
      If you are able and manage to find an all original piece in great shape for a low price, then a big congrats to you! Good luck! :-D

      @@TimelessHistoryChannel well it's not what I really ment maybe I didn't explained it well....iam not looking for a serviced NOS piece at 400$ , of course I know that it's impossible to have an all gemiune for a lower price...what I'm waiting for is more a piece which has a non re painted dial althaugh it's aged, with corresponding crown, matching case, caliber and caseback, an unpolished case even if it's has marks, even with no information about the last service if the price is OK....a one according to my budget which is actually not low ;)
      And if this is impossible well no problem I will continue enjoying my other watches with bumper caliber: Mido, UG, Movado, Cortebert or the next piece I will find during the journey...this why I like the vintage watches
      As for the modern ones if people are going crazy for some them, juste turn you eyes for the thousands other options 🙂

      Whatever it is, just make sure that the movement is in good working order. Nowadays, bumper automatic parts are hard to locate and these movements may come with some troublesome issues. Hope you will find a nice piece. :-)

    Great video, lucky to have one of those, cal 351, the slimmer lug version. I have it in a two tone dial with the Seamaster actually written below the Omega automatic, on the top of the dial.
    Have you had/seen any of those?

    • @TimelessHistoryChannel

    love your videos. even if I am just enjoying your collection or learning about omega timepieces. I recently purchased a 50's ish seamaster with an odd case. I believe it is termed hidden lugs? but lugs are not fully hidden just short. was wondering if this is original or a Frankenstein? guess I could open it and see what's on the case back...

    • @TimelessHistoryChannel
      @TimelessHistoryChannel  2 роки тому

      Not sure to be honest. Find out the case model number and Google it up. I’m sure you’ll find other examples if it’s genuine

    Excellent presentation.Any chance of doing something similar for vintage Omega Geneva .?

    • @TimelessHistoryChannel
      @TimelessHistoryChannel  Рік тому

      Thank you for the comment. The short answer is, the quality of a Geneve is just as great as a Seamaster (if you are comparing two pieces of the same year). The long answer is, Geneve is very broad. If you watch my past videos, you will learn that several Seamaster references after 1967 will no longer be called a Seamaster and instead become a Geneve model instead. But whatever the case may be, you can always apply most of the knowledge from this video toward examining a Constellation or Geneve reference as well.

    love these. i like the waffle dial (prefer black on solid gold case) with a date at 6 or 3. don't know how to specifically identify them though ... ! 2627 only ... ?

    • @TimelessHistoryChannel
      @TimelessHistoryChannel  2 роки тому

      I’ve made a video on 2627, not the same case design. 2757 is a beefy lug with calendar at 6. Calendar at three would no longer be a bumper automatic. I’ve also made a video on that. Here’s the link: ua-cam.com/video/URDCOdEeo4o/v-deo.html

    Great video. I have a 2767. It runs a caliber 354 and has a push down back with seamaster stamped on it. It also has a 10sided crown a little like you see on constellation. Is all of this correct for this model?
    Thank you

      2767 originally sold with a clover type crown. But a watchmaker can replace the old crown with a 10sided crown as it has the same dimension.

      Yes, some dial variations do not carry any luminous paste, so their hands will be solid without the center strip.

      @TimelessHistoryChannel  2 місяці тому

      That’s correct. 2577 has two different case designs. Earlier version like the one in the video has smaller chubby lugs. It looks polished. The later version with fatter lugs is easily to tell whether it has been polished or not. The later version has a removable bezel as well.
