Omega Seamaster Automatic Gold White Dial 1961 (Ref. 14700) – newly serviced

Omega Seamaster Automatic Gold White Dial (1961) – freshly serviced with mint case

The Omega Seamaster of the early 1960s represents the beginning of one of the brand's longest-running watch lines. This 1961 model, with its gold-plated case and clear white dial, exemplifies this understated yet elegant style – freshly serviced in September 2026, making it technically and aesthetically in excellent condition.

Mint case with original crystal

The case and bezel of this Seamaster are in mint condition – a remarkable achievement for a watch over 60 years old. The original acrylic crystal is still installed and has been freshly polished, showing it in very good condition. Before the sale, the case was highly polished and the bezel brought to a high shine; the dial and case back show good, age-appropriate condition. The well-maintained appearance is complemented by a new leather strap and a strap in like-new condition. A piece that, despite its age, leaves a remarkably fresh overall impression.

Freshly serviced – a movement in top form

In September 2026, the watch was fully overhauled by our watchmaker: the movement was cleaned, oiled, and regulated to an excellent value of +1 second per day, and the entire watch was professionally checked. Inside works the Omega Caliber 552 – a reliable automatic movement. The measurements after the service are impressive:

  • Power reserve (manufacturer specification): 50 hours
  • Rate deviation: +1 second/day
  • Amplitude: 245°
  • Beat Error: 0.3 ms

A rate deviation of only +1 second per day shows: This movement runs exceptionally precisely after the careful service – a result that would be considered very good even for modern movements.
