1966 Omega Seamaster 600 Vintage Mens Handwound Watch - Stainless Steel

Omega

Item No. 7478

Today's offering showcases this cool and classic vintage Seamaster 600 mens watch with strong black dial. The 600 series was named because of the movement that powers the watch. Besides being hand-wound, a less common trait for a Seamaster, the Seamaster 600 also features a slightly thinner case than automatic Seamasters.

It measures just under 35mm in diameter without the crown, in between the sizes of a Rolex Date and a Rolex Datejust.

It is fully Omega down to the dial, hands, and winding crown.

It has just been meticulously restored as part of a true expert restoration and presents on the wrist as mint condition. The dial has been expertly refinished - the printing could pass as Omega factory done to the naked eye.

As part of the restoration it has been freshly fully serviced by a Master Watchmaker (a $395 value). We have timed it in five chronometer positions, and it is keeping the highest level or near the highest level chronometer grade time in all of the positions.

For the finishing touch we have installed a new leather strap making it ready for immediate enjoyment.

Included with the purchase is a one-year warranty on the movement and its function, a custom printed Connoisseur of Time Certificate of Authenticity, and a new timing certificate attesting to the watch's performance.

A more than half-century old Omega that presents like new!

The Seamaster:
Worn on the wrists of celebrities Michael Schumacher, Pierce Brosnan, Michael Phelps, and Ernie Els, Omega timepieces rank with Rolex and other of the world's best Swiss firms.

Omega is perhaps best known for their Seamaster line of dive watches. Introduced in 1948, they have been embraced by water sports enthusiasts and often marry a striking look with a high performance movement.
