At first glance, it may appear to be a classic early Seamaster. But look closer: this is no ordinary reference. The Omega Seamaster Chronometer Ref. 2577, dating to 1950, is a highly uncommon version equipped with a chronometer-grade movement—something seen in very few Seamasters of the era.
Often referred to among collectors as a “SeaConstellation” for its shared DNA with Omega’s earliest Constellation models, this watch features the revered Calibre 354—an automatic chronometer movement with fine regulation on the balance. A small detail on the dial reveals its elevated status, but the real upgrade lies within: smooth winding, precise timekeeping, and the technical quality only found in Omega’s top-tier movements of the time.

A Rare Chronometer from Omega’s Early Years
Seamaster chronometers from the 1950s are exceptionally hard to come by—especially in this Ref. 2577 configuration. The Cal. 354 inside is the same high-grade movement found in the earliest Constellations, yet without the fanfare—making this a true hidden gem for the vintage Omega collector. Elegant, understated, and technically superior, this piece is a rare opportunity to own early chronometer excellence from one of horology’s most respected names.
