Vintage Omega Seamaster 2577 - Beefy Lug
Vintage Omega Seamaster 2577 - Beefy Lug
Omega introduced its Seamaster line in 1948. Today it remains Omegas longest continuous running production model. Originally it was released with the advertising catch phrase: "For town, sea and country." A nod to the intent behind the design. A watch that could go anywhere and do anything. Perfect for every type of occasion. The Omega Seamaster was introduced with the references 2577 and 2576 with center second or sub second configurations respectively. They were powered by bumper automatic movements - sometimes chronometer certified. They featured a variety of dial configurations with some exceedingly more scarce, rare and therefore coveted than others.
Of particular interest regarding this specific example is the case. The allure behind the reference 2577 is the characteristic lugs that earned the moniker "Beefy Lugs" from collectors. This example features an unpolished steel case that allows the buyer to enjoy all the glory that is a beefy lug Seamaster.
