Seeking opinions on vintage Seamasters (scan)

I'm interested in purchasing an older Seamaster and was hoping to hear from a few owners. In particular, I like the late fifties or early sixties chronographs--the ones with the cleaner case design before the 70s clunkers. The attached scan is a 1958 Seamaster Chrono (I believe). Any experiences with this watch (or any Seamaster Chrono from late 50s, early 60s)? What should I look for? What should I avoid? Derek Ziglar has identified some of the quirks with the latest generation Seamaster Professionals, I was hoping to get the same kind of info on this vintage model. Also, what value would you place on a similar vintage Seamaster? Thanks in advance for any responses.

Best regards, Mike
