By Omega
Located in New York, NY
Since its introduction in 1948, the Seamaster has been a pillar of the Omega brand. In the collection's 76-year history, Seamasters have been manufactured in many different iterations, from a versatile, everyday timepiece to a robust diver's tool in the Seamaster 300. Here, we have an earlier 1950s Seamaster with a special gold top case. The hooded and scarab lugs, to the crosshair gilt "no-lume" dial, these elements come together to create a truly differentiated look. The design elements of this watch are rare and make this watch highly collectible.
