A superb and highly desirable Omega Seamaster Calendar reference 2849-3 SC dating to 1958, powered by the respected Omega calibre 503 automatic movement and presented on its original large-size Omega beads of rice bracelet.
This is a particularly attractive example, featuring the sought-after silver waffle-textured dial with gilt arrowhead markers, applied gilt Arabic numerals at 12, 9 and 6, and elegant gilt dauphine hands. The combination of textures, warm gilt details and classic Seamaster styling makes for an exceptionally handsome vintage Omega.
The watch retains its original signed Omega crown and is currently keeping excellent time. The dial displays gentle, even ageing consistent with its age, adding character without detracting from its appearance.
Inside beats the Omega calibre 503 automatic movement, one of Omega's most reliable early full-rotor automatics. The movement serial dates the watch to 1958, perfectly aligning with the reference period.
