Hey folks, just thought I would say a quick hello first and then ask a question.
I collect pocket watches and I also do clock and pocket watch repair so wristwatches are out of my area of expertise right now. I have always had a good watch on hand all of my life but since I have started working on the big ones the smaller ones are much more interesting now.
I am a property manager at a gated community and one of the residents gave me a handful of old watches that belonged to her late husband. 3 were Timex which have already been consigned to the grandson, one was a Hamilton Thin-O-Matic which I sold quickly as it a gold watch and not my style. The one I have kept and is now my daily wearer, retiring my Tag Heuer for the moment is the Omega Seamaster she gave me.
I have been doing research on this watch and it is confusing me at the moment as I can't find this combination of face,case,movement and hands anywhere and yes, I have been through the entire 474 or so Seamaster listings on the Omega vintage watch search. The closest I can find has stick hands whith numerals at the 1/4s and pointers in between.
It is a CK2938 case with a 284 movement but the gold hands and numbers lose me. Not one Seamaster I have been able to find in this case with this movement has the gold Arabic numbers with the gold Dauphine hands.
I am including a link to the photos of this watch and any help would be greatly valued. In case anyone is worried that I am just out to make a quick buck off this watch I am not. It is already a greatly treasured part of my collection and I just want to know all about it.
Thanks in advance.
Ian
