Fireman_Fred Posted August 7, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 7, 2008 Thanks guys !! I don't normally go for vintage watches as I prefer the larger, chunkier modern designs but when I saw this one on Ebay, I just HAD to have it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrgod Posted August 7, 2008 Report Share Posted August 7, 2008 Beautiful piece... Vintage Seamasters like this are my favorite watches. Actually the first "expensive" watch I remember is that my father wore a Seamaster like this for many many years. He wore it through the dark "quartz-infected 80ties and into the new millenium. My mother bought it to him when they were engaged ( they married in 1962). My fathers Seamaster is unfortunately lost at the moment. Hopefully it will turn up one day! It was a manual wind model, without date. I bought my father a replacement last year, a 1963 Seamaster Automatic Calender. These watches are timeless classics! Buying this watch made me think about the point in buying replicas.. For the price of a good replica you can buy a cool vintage piece like a Seamaster, Heuer or two though vintage Seiko mechanical chronos...
