My Opinion

This is the Omega Seamaster ref 166.064, believed to date back to the mid-1970s. This timeless piece houses the Omega automatic calibre 752, boasting a quick-set date function and impeccable timekeeping. The crown and winding action operate flawlessly, ensuring optimal performance. With a case diameter of 38mm x 41mm lug to lug, it's deemed 'jumbo' sized for its era, offering a wear experience akin to modern watches. Remarkably rare, this variant is seldom seen in forums, distinguishing it from typical Seamaster/Constellation vintage pieces. Displaying both the date and day in a format of 1, 2, 3, 4 and Sun, Mon, Tues, respectively, its functionality is matched by its style. Accompanied by a period-correct Omega bracelet, acquired directly from Omega in 2022 with receipts and spare links included, as well as a tastefully paired genuine brown leather strap. Despite its age, the condition is remarkable; the original radial brushing remains visible, with only one hairline scratch on the case. The acrylic crystal exhibits no visible scratches, while the pristine white dial features vertical brushing, imparting a delightful texture. This vintage Omega Seamaster is a true testament to enduring craftsmanship and timeless elegance.
