1968 Omega Seamaster 166.003

The 1968 Omega Seamaster ref. 166.003 is a superb example of Omega's golden age of watchmaking, combining timeless design with exceptional mechanical pedigree.

Its beautifully preserved platinum-coloured dial is paired with a rich dark green alligator leather strap and signed Omega buckle, creating a refined and distinctive look that feels just as elegant today as it did over half a century ago.

Powering this vintage Seamaster is the highly regarded automatic Calibre 565 movement, celebrated for its precision, reliability, and smooth operation. Completing the package is the iconic Seahorse caseback, a hallmark of the Seamaster line and a fitting tribute to Omega's heritage of quality and craftsmanship.

A truly collectible vintage Omega, offering character, authenticity, and enduring style in equal measure.
