Vintage 1950 Omega Seamaster Calendar Serviced Bumper Watch Ref 2827-1
An elegant and increasingly collectible early Seamaster, this 1950 Omega Seamaster Calendar Ref. 2827-1 represents the golden era of post-war Swiss watchmaking.
Powered by Omega’s charming bumper automatic movement, this piece offers the distinctive feel of the early self-winding system, where the rotor “bumps” gently against its springs rather than rotating freely. It is a wonderful reminder of mid century mechanical innovation and craftsmanship.
This watch has just undergone a service by us to ensure reliability and longevity, and has been fitted with a new quality leather strap, ready for comfortable everyday wear.
The stainless steel case remains in good condition, retaining strong lines and honest vintage character. The dial is particularly attractive, displaying a beautiful, even patina that only decades can create. Applied hour markers and the applied Omega logo give the dial depth and refinement, while the date window positioned at 6 o’clock adds symmetry and practicality, a desirable feature in early Seamaster Calendar models.
The Ref. 2827-1 is a classic 1950s dress-sport crossover: refined enough for formal wear, yet robust enough for daily use, exactly as the Seamaster name intended.
A timeless and mechanically engaging vintage Omega, serviced and ready for its next custodian.
A Note on Vintage Watch Ownership
Vintage mechanical watches, while robust and reliable, are not as precise as modern quartz timepieces and may require periodic servicing. Some gentle wear and natural patina should be expected with an original watch of this age. Treated with care, it will continue to be enjoyed for many years to come.
At TEMPO PRIMA, we believe vintage watches should not be worn in water, regardless of their original specifications. We do not pressure-test vintage watches and therefore cannot guarantee water resistance. To preserve the longevity and integrity of these timepieces, we strongly recommend keeping them dry and avoiding any exposure to moisture.
