No. 860 / Omega Seamaster - 1968

Omega Seamaster Automatic / 1968 Intro This 1968 Omega Seamaster features a beautiful sunburst dial that catches the light with subtle elegance. It is powered by the Caliber 565 automatic movement, known for its reliability and convenient quickset date function, which allows the date to be adjusted by moving the hour hand back and forth past midnight. A beautifully balanced piece, it appeals to watch enthusiasts for both its refined design and its place within Omega's long-standing tradition of precision watchmaking. Story Since its introduction in 1948, the Omega Seamaster has remained a cornerstone of the brand’s collection, celebrated for its versatility and enduring design. Its strength lies in its adaptability—offered in both rugged dive watch variants, famously worn by professional divers and James Bond, as well as refined dress models, like those seen on Mad Men's Don Draper. In many ways, the Seamaster serves as Omega’s counterpart to the Rolex Datejust. Both offer waterproof cases, slim profiles, and are available in steel or gold. However, the Seamaster is often noted for its comparatively accessible pricing, offering strong value without compromising quality. Whether sporty in stainless steel or elegant in gold, there’s a Seamaster to suit every style, every budget, and every wrist.
