Vintage Seamaster Input needed (pics!)
Hi guys,
I've been after a vintage Seamaster for a while now. Any thoughts on this one? Seller says it's from 1966 ad it has the 552 calibre. He's asking 1,200 USD, but I think I can get him down to $1,000. Thanks! |

Thank you. |

I recommend that you keep looking. The case is in nice condition, but the dial has been refinished, and it wasn't done very well. Also, the hands and markers are corroded more than I would like on a watch that I would want to use.
Caliber 552 is an excellent engine, BTW. |
