Original Omega Seamaster Bumper Automatic Calendar c1951
This is the very first Omega Seamaster with date made in 1951 with rare cal 353 fully automatic movement.
An Omega "bumper" is a vintage Omega that has a "bumper" automatic movement rather than a full rotation rotor automatic. The oscillating weight makes a partial rotation before "bumping" into a cushioning spring.
The dial is original, unrestored and perfect. It has the original bowler hat crown all we have changed is the glass, the back seal and the mainspring.
The early Omega beads of rice bracelet is full length at 8 inches with all of the links still present.
Its slightly oversize at 35.5mm, this mark 1 model with the square date window was only made for 6 months before the dial was changed to one with the trapezoidal date window so its a very rare early Seamaster.A new glass has been fitted and the case and bracelet has been professionally cleaned so it is in superb condition.
As you would expect the watch is fully marked on the dial, movement and case.
