It presents in gorgeous restored condition. Our photos couldn't do justice to its condition.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Seamaster Cosmic is one of our favorite non-exotic Seamasters from the era because of its large size, classic design, and well-made case with unique \"bathysphere\" style design that has an inner movement holder that houses the movement.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAt a time when the quartz revolution was beginning to take place this watch with automatic Cal. 1012 movement, which has seven more jewels than its sister movement the 1010, carried on both the style and mechanical functionality of a traditional Seamaster.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis Cosmic 2000 is large for the era, measuring 38mm in diameter by a full 48mm long.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt has all of its original parts and has just finished a true expertly done restoration.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIts case presents as mint with light signs of polishing. The engraved Hypocampus logo on the back is still very strong.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIts original Omega dial has been meticulously custom refinished in a deep lavender hue - the printing could pass as Omega factory done to the naked eye. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAs part of the restoration, it has just been fully overhauled by a Master Watchmaker. It is running extremely strong and true, keeping time on par with a brand new Omegas in our testing recording position.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFor the finishing touch, it has been equipped with a brand new aftermarket calfskin leather strap in a complementary color and an aftermarket Omega style buckle making it ready for immediate enjoyment.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIncluded 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.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYour watch is important to us, and we will take care of it for its lifetime.
