1958 Omega Seamaster Honeycomb Crosshairs - Ref. 2846-1

Offered here is a beautiful 1958 Omega Seamaster reference 2846-1, distinguished by its stunning original silvered honeycomb crosshair dial. Among mid-century Seamaster references, the honeycomb dial remains one of the most desirable configurations, adding depth, texture, and character to an already elegant design.

Housed in its original stainless steel waterproof snap-back case, this example retains strong, sharp lines with crisp faceted lug edges, giving the watch a wonderful sense of integrity and preserving the handsome proportions intended by Omega. The case presents exceptionally well on the wrist, offering that quintessential late-1950s Seamaster balance of refinement and everyday wearability.

The dial is particularly attractive, featuring applied gilt indices and beautifully faceted Arabic numerals at three and nine. These catch the light wonderfully and provide a striking contrast against the textured silvered honeycomb backdrop. The finely executed crosshair further enhances the symmetry and sophistication of the design, making this a watch that reveals more detail the longer it is admired.

Powering the watch is Omega’s highly regarded automatic calibre 500-series movement, freshly overhauled by our watchmaker and running as it should. For complete peace of mind, the watch is supplied with a 12-month mechanical guarantee.

A wonderfully honest and highly attractive Seamaster from one of Omega’s golden eras, combining sharp case geometry, an exceptional honeycomb dial, and the reliable calibre 500 automatic movement. An increasingly difficult configuration to source in such appealing condition.
