Today's offering showcases this uncommon 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. 1010 movement with quick-setting date carried on the mechanical tradition of the Seamaster.

It has a distinctively styled original eight-sided case.

It is in gorgeous fully restored condition, and the automatic Omega movement has just been overahauled. It is keeping time nearly on par with a new Omega.

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.

Photos of the inside available upon request.
