Today's offering showcases this classic c. 1962 Omega Seamaster with rare and very cool dial. Powering the watch is Omega's top-tier caliber 552 movement with twenty-four jewels (instead of the more common seventeen jewel versions).

It measures approximately 34mm in diameter without the crown, the same size as a Rolex Date watch.

It is 100% original Omega down to dial, hands, crown and even the signed original crystal! The back of the gold-capped case has a pleasing and large embossed Hypocampus logo on the back. The case, with it's thick cap of gold, has the look of a solid gold Seamaster for a fraction of the price.

Its centerpiece is its crosshair dial with rare highly stylized numbers at the primary hours. The dial in untouched and mint.

Our watchmaker has freshly cleaned and oiled the movement. For the finishing touch we have equipped it with a brand new crocodile strap making it ready for immediate enjoyment.

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