Omega Seamaster 600 Date w/ Rare Dial circa 1966 Mar 20, 2009 - 03:57 PM
This is a very nice example (very good over-all condition) of the much sought-after Omega 600 in all stainless steel with a screw-down steel case-back.

The watch features a very unusual dial. Instead of the usual applied white metal Omega logo, the black dial on this watch features the Omega logo in red and red cross-hairs quartering the dial.

There is a date aperture at 3 o'clock and I believe the dial and the white metal hands are original to the watch.



The movement is Omega Calibre 611 is manual-wind and 17 jewels, adjusted to 2 positions. The serial number 24048xxx dates the watch to approximately 1966 or 1967.

Inside the case-back it reads 136.001. The back of the case features the Omega hippocampus Seamonster and the original owner's name, H. Hillemeir, MD, inscribed in a most rudimentary fashion.



Signed three times (case, dial and crown), this is a very pretty watch.

Fitted with a period-correct steel expansion bracelet, it is keeping excellent time and is ready to wear.

$449 plus actual carriage.
