OMEGA 60's Seamaster / Cal.552

Introducing the Omega Seamaster from the 1960s .

Waterproofing and dustproofing have long been a major issue for wristwatches, and with the outbreak of World War II, demand for waterproof functionality in wristwatches increased rapidly.

At the time, Omega supplied the British military with large quantities of watches with round, waterproof screw-back cases.
After the war, when Omega considered what movement would be suitable for this waterproof case, they came up with the idea of ​​using an automatic movement in order to avoid having to pull out the crown, which poses the risk of water and dust getting in.

Thus, by combining a screw-back waterproof case with an automatic movement, the Seamaster was born in 1948 as the world's first waterproof automatic wristwatch.

The Seamaster is Omega's signature sports dress model.
This is a long-selling model that has existed in various designs over the years, from 1948 to the present day.

The Seamaster we are introducing this time is a classic, dignified non-date model produced in the early 1960s .

The dial has aged to a pale cream color, and features sharp wedge-shaped indexes and dolphin hands.
