Omega - Seamaster Bumper - 1950s

SOLD


Authentic

Serviced

1-year Warranty

Today I'm featuring an Omega Seamaster Bumper from the 1950s.
 
Do you know the automatic Bumper movement?
Unlike a conventional automatic movement, the oscillating weight that drives the mechanism doesn't make a full revolution, but half-turns. These half-turns are made possible by a system of springs on each side, allowing the oscillating weight to bounce back and forth.

This movement system, which has not lasted very long, is much appreciated by collectors.
Indeed, modern automatic movements inspired by the Bumper patents soon followed. Why did I choose this watch?

NB: Most of our vintages were made decades ago, so it's worth remembering that our watches are still objects that need to be cared for to keep them working properly. Water, shocks and vibrations must be avoided.
What's more, the majority of older cases are not anti-magnetic. As a result, strong magnetic fields, even from high body magnetism, can disrupt certain movements by creating a lead or lag.
In the event of negligence, we will remain available to help you, but the warranty will not apply.
