Other: The dial on this 1956 Omega Seamaster Automatic Calendar is the star of the show - Just look at the amazing patina that has developed over the past 60+ years! The beveled arrow hour markers and applied Omega logo glisten when they catch the light (especially out in the sun). The solid stainless steel case with "chubby" lugs wears larger than 34mm, but is slim enough to slide under the cuff of a dress shirt. We also recommend wearing it casually with your favorite wool sweater and jeans. The patinated dial really pops and is the perfect compliment to your fall wardrobe.
