This Omega Seamaster 120M, reference 2511.31, is a 1996 stainless-steel quartz sports watch with the silver wave-pattern dial, date display and Omega calibre 1538.
Why It’s Special
The reference belongs to Omega’s 1990s Seamaster revival, when the wave dial became a defining modern signature for the collection. The 120M offered a more compact, refined expression of that language than the professional dive models, and its 36 mm proportions have made it a particularly wearable neo-vintage option for collectors seeking the period’s distinctive Omega design.
Condition
Original silver wave dial and hands remain clean with crisp print and intact lume. Case and bezel show moderate surface scratches and light scuffing consistent with daily wear, though brushing and edge definition remain visible. The 1501/823 bracelet is full length with minor stretch and typical clasp marks from use. Sapphire crystal is clear and free of chips. Movement is clean and fully operational.
Performance
Quartz movement running correctly.
