Since its release in 1948, the Omega Seamaster has remained one of the most iconic and important watches in the world of horology, and here is a great vintage Omega Seamaster dating from 1966.
Made in stainless steel and measuring 34mm across plus the Omega crown, the dial is so elegant and refined with lovely straight index markers and the centre sweep seconds, and will look so good being worn with a suit for work, or that special dinner occasion.
Fitted on an elegant black leather band, inside it is powered by the 24 jewelled manual wind Omega calibre 552 that has just been serviced and comes with our twelve month warranty.
This is a great example of a vintage Omega Seamaster that will always look so fashionable and stylish on the wrist.

A brief history of the Omega Seamaster:
First released in 1948 which was also Omega's 100th Anniversary, the Omega Seamaster was designed to be a robust watch while still being very elegant making it one of the world's first watches that could be worn with a suit and tie as well as a wet suit in an age where blue collar watches and white collar watches never overlapped.
The Omega Seamaster was in fact born as a result of World War II where the British were after a watch with superior reliability and water resistance with very high precision.
After the war the Omega Seamaster became known as the watch to have on your wrist and one that would never let you down. This is a testament to the classic vintage Omega Seamaster watches that we have on offer.
Where can I service my Omega watch?
When we expanded and renovated our store in late 2022, we put in not only a full watchmaking and polishing workshop, but a watchmaker. He used to used to work for Tag Heuer, LVMH and then Rolex, before coming to Kalmar Antiques. We also now have full access to Omega watch parts. This allows us to be able to service your Omega watch, as well as other watches such as Longines, Breitling, Cartier and Patek Philippe to name a few.
