1950's Era SS Omega Seamaster Cal.
Been a long time since my last post. I have come across another watch in the collection I am having a hard time identifying.I believe its an early Omega, from the late 1950's I believe. Numbers from the inside of the watch:503 - On movement under small Omega Logo2849 6 SC - inside caseback16218049 - On movement outer edge315184 - inside caseback inside a triangle logo20 Jewel MovementI am having a hard time identifying the watch as the resources for early models are hard to come by, anyone have any suggestions?
