This Omega Seamaster 120m Ref. 2511.31 from 1998 is a stainless steel quartz watch in good condition, with light scratches on the case and bracelet. Featuring a silver wave dial and date window at 3 o’clock, it is a versatile choice for everyday wear, the office, or smart weekend occasions. Sold with no accessories.

Q: What are the main specifications of this Omega Seamaster 120m? A: This reference 2511.31 is a Swiss-made stainless steel Seamaster with a 36.25 mm case, silver wave dial, date window at 3 o’clock, sapphire crystal, stainless steel bracelet and Omega quartz calibre 1538. It was originally rated to 120 metres and is now a discontinued model.
Q: Is 36 mm a good size for everyday wear? A: Yes. A 36 mm case gives this watch a classic, versatile look that tends to suit smaller to medium wrists especially well. This particular bracelet is currently sized to fit a wrist of up to 18 cm, so that is the best guide for fit.
Q: Is this watch suitable for swimming? A: The model was originally designed with 120 m water resistance, but with any pre-owned watch from 1998 it is wise to be cautious unless it has recently passed a pressure test. If you plan to swim with it, we recommend having the seals and water resistance checked first.
Q: How long does the battery usually last? A: Omega’s calibre 1538 is generally quoted at around 42 months of battery life. Actual battery life can vary depending on age, storage, and service history.
Q: What does it mean if the seconds hand starts jumping several seconds at a time? A: That is usually the end-of-battery-life indicator used on Omega’s quartz calibre 1538. The watch may still keep time briefly, but it means the battery should be replaced soon by a professional so the case can be resealed and checked.
Q: Does a quartz Omega still need servicing? A: Yes. Quartz watches are lower-maintenance than mechanical ones, but they still benefit from periodic servicing, gasket replacement and water-resistance checks. Omega recommends regular water-resistance checks and a full service roughly every 5 to 8 years.
Q: Can the bracelet be resized or changed to a strap? A: The steel bracelet can be resized by removing links, but this listed example currently fits an 18 cm wrist or smaller. Owners also wear this model on straps, though it is best to confirm fit with a watchmaker if you plan to change it from the bracelet.
Q: What is included with this watch? A: This listing is sold with no original box, papers or extra items. Please refer to the product information on this page for the full included details.
Q: Is this model still available from Omega? A: No. This reference is no longer in Omega’s current catalogue, which is part of its appeal for buyers looking for a discontinued vintage Seamaster.
Q: How do you authenticate this watch? A: Every watch sold by A Retro Tale is checked by in-house experts. This example is also identified in the product information by its Omega reference number, serial number and Swiss origin details.
