Other: We are thrilled to be able to offer this absolutely exceptional example of the iconic no-date Omega Seamaster 300 Diver. Justin discovered this watch locally back in 2021. It was honest, dirty, and completely unpolished from the estate of the original owner just how collectors prefer to find these important tool watches. Upon close inspection of the movement by our Omega-certified watchmaker, he noted pristine, untouched screw heads with no evidence of any prior service history. He proceeded to overhaul the in-house Omega calibre 550 self-winding movement to factory specifications, which included installing a new factory Omega mainspring/barrel and winding stem. The case was completely disassembled and ultrasonically cleaned with absolutely NO case polishing. The original signed acrylic crystal was inspected and re-installed without polishing in order to retain its sharp edge! The matching 1039/516 bracelet is super tight. These bracelets sell for approximately $3,000 alone in this condition and can be used on similar-era Speedmaster references. You just never see watches like this anymore, and discoveries like this are few and far between these days... Don't miss your chance to own a top-quality Omega SM300 for essentially the same price as a comparable, but much more common Rolex 5513 Submariner.
