Besides being hand-wound, a less common trait for a Seamaster, the Seamaster 600 also features a slightly thinner case than automatic Seamasters.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt measures just under 35mm in diameter without the crown, in between the sizes of a Rolex Date and a Rolex Datejust.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt has all of its original parts and has just finished a true expertly done restoration. It presents as a 9.7 out of 10.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIts case presents as mint and retains strong lines. Its dial has been meticulously restored - the printing could pass as Omega factory done to the naked eye.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIts caliber 601 handwound movement, originally adjusted to two positions for greater accuracy, is very clean.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAs part of the restoration, it has been overhauled by a Master Watchmaker. Its fine handwound movement is running very strong and true, keeping time on par with a new Omega in our testing recording position.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFor the finishing touch, we have equipped it with a brand new calfskin leather strap and aftermarket Omega style buckle making it ready for immediate enjoyment. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIncluded with the purchase is a one-year warranty on the movement and its function, a custom printed Connoisseur of Time Certificate of Authenticity, and a new timing certificate attesting to the watch's performance.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYour watch is important to us, and we will take care of it for its lifetime. We provide the best after sale care in the business with an extremely experienced team of four Master Watchmakers all of whom each have over thirty-five years of experience and a large number of parts. One used to be the watchmaker for an authorized Rolex dealership and was given training by Rolex at their Beverly Hills Service Center.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003eThe Seamaster:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOmega watches can be found on the wrists of many prominent figures including Pierce Brosnan, Michael Schumacher, Michael Phelps, Ernie Els, Prince William, and one graced the wrist of President John F.
