Reference 2869-1 is a mid-1950s automatic Seamaster, typically fitted with the caliber 501 (or caliber 500 for U.S. versions), and part of Omega’s early self-winding center-seconds architecture.
This example is housed in a 34 mm stainless steel case and features a cream dial with a beveled outer zone.
The model represents the Seamaster line in its elegant daily-wear phase, prior to the more angular designs and quick-set date calibers introduced in the 1960s.
