Seamaster calender

[mamas]

Heres a nice near mint piece i won off ebay tonight, a 1950's second generation semaster calender, with its original ss bracelet which is rare and its orginal box.. even rarer!! (sellers pics) i really like the thick lugged semasters of the 1950's and can be still had for a bargain... $450 for this one!!!

Mamas,
The details on that beauty are quite remarkable! Could you take a close up of the face when you get a chance? I really need to take a look at Ebay more often...
CONGRATULATIONS!

Great pick up Mamas like that style of bracelet,did have one once that
was all like the centre links.Think they called them grain of rice bracelets

Ren, once i get the watch delivered i will certainly take plenty of closeups... Padi, you are right, this bracelet is called rice grain bracelet. Most of these seamasters and connies came on leather straps originally.. the rice graijn bracelet was an optional extra. i actually prefer leather straps on these vintages.. as their original bracelets feel a bit flimsy by todays standards, and leather suits these watches better anyway.
