c. 1982 Omega Seamaster Vintage Mens Automatic, Day Date Watch with Golden Yellow Dial - Stainless Steel

Omega

Item No. 9972

Today's offering showcases this meticulously restored vintage day date Omega TV shaped Seamaster. Its original Omega dial has been strikingly custom refinished in a golden yellow color.

Here are some of its features:

* Pioneering "double quick-set" day and date features - Omega created the caliber 1020 movement with a double quick-set capability for convenient setting of the day and date. Though many connoisseurs associate the idea of the double quick-set watch with Rolex, which first offered the President model with this "new" feature in late 1990, Omega was a pioneer of the technology in large scale production watches, evidenced by this example made about a decade before.

* Full size retro case - Its diameter is approx. 36mm, the same size as a Rolex Datejust

* Faster beat (28,800 bph) balance system for greater accuracy

It has all of its original parts down to even its original Omega waterproofing seal!

It has just finished a true expertly done restoration. It presents as about a 9.7 out of a perfect 10. On the wrist it presents like new. Our photos couldn't do it justice!

Its case presents as gorgeous mint with perfect high polished facets. Its Omega dial has been painstakingly custom refinished - the printing could pass as Omega factory done to the naked eye.

As part of the restoration, the movement has been overhauled by a Master Watchmaker. It is running strong and true, keeping time essentially on par with a new Omega in our testing recording position.

For the finishing touch, we have meticulously detailed it making it ready for immediate enjoyment.

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 attesting to its performance.
