1958 Omega Seamaster Automatic (Ref. 2975-4 SC) Cal. 501
The world of vintage Omega Seamasters is vast and filled with interesting and unique references and this ref. 2975-4 SC Omega Seamaster has so many charming elements to it, that is hard to favor just one! The ref. 2975-4 SC is powered by the in-house Omega cal. 501 automatic winding movement, which is a workhorse, like many Omega movements out of this era. The case back is adored by collectors as it features a large hippocampus medallion. The broad lug case gives this watch an excellent wrist presence. But perhaps the most interesting aspect of this Seamaster is its original beads-of-rice bracelet, which features a rare micro-adjust mechanism within its clasp.
