1975 Omega Vintage Seamaster Mens Watch, Automatic, Date - 18K Gold Plated & Stainless Steel

Omega

Item No. 5400

Today's offering showcases this gorgeously restored Omega Seamaster from c. 1975.

It is a later model vintage Seamaster. Built at a time when the quartz revolution was taking hold and Omega was cutting costs, this watch with automatic Cal. 1012 movement with quick-setting date carried on the mechanical tradition of the Seamaster.

It is fully Omega down to the original hands, signed winding crown, and Omega waterproofing seal and presents in true expertly restored condition. The original dial has been flawlessly refinished. The printing is perfect - it could pass as Omega factory done to the naked eye.

Our watchmaker has just freshly serviced the movement. It continues to run very true. (The photo of the movement were taken before servicing).

Included with the purchase is a one-year C.O.T. warranty on the movement and its function, a custom printed Connoisseur of Time Certificate of Authenticity, and a new timing certificate.

A four decade old Omega that presents almost like new!
