Q: How does the 36mm size wear on the wrist? A: The 36mm case gives this watch a classic, balanced fit that many collectors find comfortable and easy to wear. This specific piece fits a wrist of 18 cm or smaller according to the product information, so it is especially well suited to those who prefer a neater vintage-inspired size rather than an oversized sports watch.
Please note that the majority of our items are vintage and therefore have tales to tell unless stated otherwise. Therefore, please look at pictures, descriptions and measurements provided as they give you the best idea of the story this item has to tell.

Delivery & Returns
Q: What are the key specifications of this Omega Seamaster 120m watch? A: This is an Omega Seamaster 120m Quartz Watch, reference 2511.81, dating to around 1998. It has a 36mm stainless steel case, a blue dial, a date display, and a quartz movement. It is a compact and versatile Seamaster that works well as an everyday luxury watch.
Q: Is this watch quartz or automatic? A: This watch is quartz, meaning it is powered by a battery rather than wrist movement. Quartz watches are appreciated for their convenience, accuracy, and low day-to-day maintenance, making this a practical choice for regular wear.
Q: How long does the battery usually last? A: Omega lists the battery life for this calibre at around 42 months, although real-world life can vary depending on age, usage, and servicing history. If the seconds hand starts moving in larger jumps rather than once per second, that is typically a sign the battery should be replaced soon.
Q: Can I swim with this watch? A: The model is rated to 120 metres water resistance. In general, that makes it suitable for everyday water exposure and swimming, provided the seals and crown are in proper condition. As with any vintage watch, we recommend having the water resistance checked before regular water use, especially if service history is unknown.
Q: How does the 36mm size wear on the wrist? A: The 36mm case gives this watch a classic, balanced fit that many collectors find comfortable and easy to wear. This specific piece fits a wrist of 18 cm or smaller according to the product information, so it is especially well suited to those who prefer a neater vintage-inspired size rather than an oversized sports watch.
Q: What condition is this watch in? A: This watch is listed in Very Good Condition. The external condition shows light traces of use, the internal condition is noted as very good, and the hardware is shiny with light scratches. This is consistent with a carefully used vintage watch from the late 1990s.
Q: What accessories are included with this watch? A: This watch comes with a box, and the box is noted as damaged. Everything included with the watch is shown in the product information; if an item is not listed there, it should not be assumed to be included.
Q: How often should an Omega quartz watch be serviced? A: Omega generally recommends periodic care rather than waiting for a problem to appear. Water resistance should be checked regularly, and a full service is commonly advised every 5 to 8 years depending on use, age, and condition. For a vintage quartz model, prompt battery changes and proper gasket checks are especially important.
