Originally a sub-collection of the Seamaster range, it diverged into a standalone line by 1967, offering refined pieces versus the brand’s increasingly sport-oriented catalog. Over time, it also became the platform for many Omega firsts, such as their first co-axial escapement and first anti-magnetic central tourbillon. Here we have a specimen from the transition to more experimental shapes and using a new generation of movements with modern features. The “tonneau TV shape” was just becoming a thing, leading to wild popularity throughout the 70s across many brands. The movement was also transitional, being from the brand’s first high-beat, ultra-thin automatics with bi-directional quickset date and hacking seconds. This is one of very few we’ve seen with a De Ville dial text delete, and a uniquely patinated seconds hand that has warmed to a golden hue. Thin, experimental, avant-garde for the time, seldom seen and in great condition! Serviced and warrantied as well.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCONDITION:\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e9\/10, without much signs of use, just some fine hairlines\/scuffs\/micro-nicks with broad chamfers and sharp lines and finishing transitions.
