1968 Omega Seamaster Tropical Dial Ref166.003 Men's Automatic Watch Cal565 In good working order
SKU: 202501104972
We would like to introduce you to watches from OMEGA, a Swiss watch manufacturer founded in 1848.
This is the popular waterproof model "Seamaster" from Omega made in 1968.
This is called a "tropical dial" and has changed color from black to brown over the course of several decades, giving it a vintage look.
The movement is the automatic Cal565, the final model of the Caliber 500 series, making it a highly practical and reliable machine.
The overhaul history is unknown, but the accuracy is good and the automatic winding mechanism is problem-free.
We hope this once-in-a-lifetime encounter will be a special one for you!
