Vintage Omega Seamaster Automatic Watch, Date Window
Cal. 562, Cream Dial from 1960

This vintage Omega Seamaster Ref. 14701-1SC from 1960 is a beautiful example of classic mid-century watchmaking — a clean, elegant design paired with one of Omega’s most celebrated automatic calibers.

The watch features a perfectly balanced cream dial with applied faceted indices, dauphine hands, and a framed date window at 3 o’clock. The iconic “Seamaster” script adds that extra touch of vintage charm, while the dial remains uncluttered and legible — ideal for everyday wear.

The case measures 33.5mm in diameter (excluding the crown), with a lug-to-lug length of 42.5mm, giving it a nice presence on the wrist without being oversized. Inside ticks the Omega Caliber 562, a reliable, Swiss-made automatic movement with date function. The serial number 17558665 places it firmly in 1960, a golden era for Omega.
