Phillips is proud to offer this exceptional, fresh-to-market, Seamaster 300, reference CK2913-3 from 1959. A remarkable watch in so many ways, it is one of the best-preserved examples of an early Seamster 300 to ever surface. Furthermore, sharp-eyed connoisseurs will immediately notice a highly coveted and rarely seen detail on the dial at 12 o’clock – a prominent retailer signature of the Zurich-based boutique, Meister.
The present Seamaster 300 stands out not only for the presence of its original, iconic “Broad Arrow” hands, but also to its stunning, nearly “new-old-stock” overall condition. The Meister-signed dial is pristine, with original luminous material that has aged to a strong mocha hue. The presence of two original bracelets, including a rarely seen Omega "bamboo" bracelet, - both produced in 1959 as stamped on their clasps – further enhances the desirability and originality of this example. Acquired by the consignor over 25 years ago directly from the original owner, who kept it unworn in a drawer since its original purchase with these two bracelets. Fully correct, it features a flawless revolving bezel still retaining its original luminous dot, and outstandingly crisp engravings to the case back.
Considering the challenge of finding well-preserved vintage, professional timepieces, it is very possible that a watch of this remarkable originality, quality, and condition will take decades to reappear on the market, making this a rare opportunity for the most discerning and demanding collector.
Omega's rich history begins with its founder, Louis Brandt, who established the firm in 1848 in La Chaux de Fonds. In 1903, the company changed its name to Omega, becoming the only watch brand in history to have been named after one its own movements. A full-fledged manufacturer of highly accurate, affordable and reliable watches, its sterling reputation enabled them to be chosen as the first watch company to time the Olympic Games beginning in 1932. Its continued focus on precision and reliability ultimately led their Speedmaster chronograph wristwatch to be chosen by NASA in 1965 — the first watch worn on the moon.
Key models sought-after by collectors include their first, oversized water-resistant chronograph — the reference 2077, early Speedmaster models such as the CK 2915 and 2998, military-issued versions of the Seamaster and oversized chronometer models such as those fitted with their prestigious caliber 30T2Rg.
