Omega Seamaster Ref. 2577-1 SC | Rare Black Dial | Cal. 351 Automatic Bumper | c.1952 Highlights • Omega Seamaster Ref. 2577-1 SC • Rare black dial configuration • Omega Calibre 351 automatic bumper movement • Movement serial number 12,867,678 dating production to circa 1952 • Stainless steel screw-back Seamaster case • Applied hour markers and dauphine hands • One of Omega's earliest automatic Seamaster references Description Offered here is a highly attractive Omega Seamaster Ref. 2577-1 SC dating to circa 1952 and powered by the renowned Omega Calibre 351 automatic bumper movement. Introduced during the early years of the Seamaster line, the Ref. 2577 represents Omega at its post-war best — combining robust waterproof construction with one of the manufacture's pioneering automatic movements. The Calibre 351 remains one of the most important bumper automatics produced by Omega and is prized by collectors for both its engineering significance and distinctive winding action. What makes this example particularly appealing is its rare black dial. While most surviving examples are found with silver dials, black-dial variants are encountered far less frequently and offer a noticeably sportier appearance. The combination of the glossy black dial, applied hour markers and elegant dauphine hands gives the watch exceptional presence while retaining the understated proportions that define Omega's finest watches of the era. Measuring approximately 34mm, the watch wears beautifully on the wrist and remains as versatile today as it was over seventy years ago.
