Strictly Vetted Dealers

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.

Secure Transit

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.

The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

Introduced in 1948, the Omega Seamaster was originally inspired by water-resistant watches made for the British military during the Second World War. Over the decades, it evolved from a refined dress watch with water-resistant features into one of the most iconic series of sports and luxury timepieces in Swiss watchmaking.

Vintage 1960s Seamaster models are predominantly constructed with stainless steel or gold-plated cases, acrylic crystals, and self-winding automatic mechanical movements. Branded bracelets, such as the classic beads-of-rice style, were often crafted from matching stainless steel.

Authentic vintage models feature clear markings on the dial, including the Omega logo and Swiss Made designation at six oclock, alongside engraved reference numbers inside the case back. The movement should display a correct serial number and brand calibre stamping matching the production period.

A classic 35mm stainless steel dress watch provides a subtle and versatile accent that complements tailored suits, smart casual attire, or everyday modern wardrobes. Its understated proportions and neutral silver tone suit both formal occasions and casual wear.

Preserve a vintage automatic watch by keeping it away from moisture, strong magnetic fields, and extreme temperature fluctuations. Regular mechanical servicing every three to five years ensures proper lubrication of internal components and maintains operational accuracy.
