Just found out from another member who knows a lot more than me about watches, that this example features a factory blue wavy dial in Excellent condition, This model also known as the first original model that features in the film The GoldenEye James Bond with Pierce Brosnan. not sure how you can tell but ive just checked and yes that is correct !!
I thought James Bond wore a Seiko but you live and learn !

You fail to mention that when the light catches that wavy face, it just comes alive like the light catching the top of breaking waves.... mine is slightly older, but the wavy face is a signature of the Seamaster series. Just beautiful with the light on it.

Yes it really does, unlike any other watch, it truly comes alive, this is a really lovely very very good condition watch apart from the seriously minor desk mark on the clasp I fail to find a single mark on it, and remember the strap is under a year old and comes with the Nato type strap for those that prefer, looking around I think this is cheap, I thought the Automatic ones were worth more but looking at the likes of Ebay that does not seem to be the case maybe because of the long battery life or the inexpensive replacement cost ? or that they just keep better time than the Automatic ones ?

Automatic is very traditional and makes sense on a watch you wear nearly every day - and diver's watches are good for that because of the rugged and waterproof build. But if you wear it less regularly you may find it inconvenient to set the time so often. Quartz is capable of being very accurate and won't stop until the battery dies. (Automatic can also be incredibly accurate).

 

[Big-G]

These are nice watches but can you please confirm the model number.

" Automatics can be incredibly inaccurate as well!"

My Auto Seamaster is within 1/2 a minute a week , and thats after service. I've quite a few automatic watches from high end makers, and the only one thats spot on for accuracy is my old Rolex DateJust. Serviced 2 years ago and within, I recon, 2-3 seconds a month, but it wasn't always like that!
Quartz Seamaster does appeal to me for accuracy and also not having to stick it in the winder if I don't want to wear it! They are also a lot cheaper to service with Omega automatic seamasters north of £500 for a service.
GLWS. I would be quite happy to own this if I was after a Seamaster.
