Omega
For sale is a Swiss Made Omega Seamaster Automatic Chronometer men's watch with reference number 168.1501, dating back to 1998. The watch features a 36mm stainless steel case with solid gold bezel, and the Seamaster's typical twisted lugs. The dial on this particular example is finished in a glossy blue tone, with gold tone accents all around. Luminous hands indicate the time on luminous indices, and a calendar window can be seen at the 3 o'clock position. Surrounding the dial is a fixed bezel crafted from solid 18k yellow gold. The screw-down crown is original, and decorated with the Omega symbol. Fitted to the watch comes the original Seamaster bracelet with signed clasp. Inside the watch sits a high quality Omega 1109 movement, which is Chronometer certified and working perfectly.
The example sold here has been worn throughout its life, but is still in good overall condition considering its age. You will find signs of wear on the case, but no overly coarse damage. Most notable are some scuffs on the gold bezel. The case is unpolished and therefore in original shape, with sharp edges and curves. The dial and hands have stood the test of time very well, with only minor signs of age. The sapphire crystal shows a few faint scratches here and there. The clasp was worn, and has been replaced for a complete and original Omega clasp. Functionally, the watch has received a full service prior to sale and is working perfectly. The movement was entirely disassembled, cleaned, lubricated and regulated.
Please study the pictures in this listing well: they show the watch in the condition that it is in, with no digital enhancements to make it look better than it is. We are sure that you like honesty, and so do we. The watch is sold as a full set: accompanying it are the original red box (of which the PU lining has deteriorated), as well as the red card holder with both the Warranty Card, Service Centers Booklet and Operating Instructions Booklet. A great set for any vintage watch enthusiast.
All bracelet links are present, which allows the watch to fit wrists with a circumference of approximately 20cm at maximum. In order to extend the bracelet size past 20cm, spare links will have to be sourced online or at a dealership, which we can do for you upon request. The bracelet is removable: any leather strap or bracelet with an 18mm lug width will fit. A blue Hirsch Kansas leather strap with quick release spring bars is included, allowing the owner to easily change things up from time to time.
Your newly acquired timepiece will be packaged with great care, and will be shipped out as fast as possible. We usually ship the same day your payment comes in, and provide full insurance as well as a tracking code for all of our packages. If you have any questions regarding the item or our services, please do not hesitate to reach out. We'll gladly assist as soon as we get the chance!
