Vintage Omega 39.5mm Seamaster Cosmic 2000, Black Dial, Stainless steel Bracelet, Ref. 166.160
The Omega Seamaster was first introduced in 1948, as part of the brand’s centenary celebrations. Initially designed as a rugged and reliable watch for professionals and military personnel, it quickly gained popularity among divers and became a symbol of the brand’s commitment to precision and performance. Over the years, the Seamaster has undergone numerous iterations and improvements, including the addition of new features such as automatic movements, chronographs, and water resistance up to 600 meters. Today, the Seamaster is one of Omega’s most iconic and recognizable timepieces, worn by everyone from James Bond to Olympic athletes.
Introduced in the early 1970’s, the Cosmic 2000 series added a system of large gaskets in an unusual modular case design that kept the movement safe from grit and moisture, even at depth. The Cosmic 2000 has a gently curved 39.5mm steel case that sits comfortably on the wrist. Omega added to this unique case a caliber 1022 Day-Date automatic movement with quickset functions, with a generous 40-hour power reserve. What sets apart the watch presented here is that in June, 2023, it received a full service from Omega, and is accompanied with an Omega service box and papers. Its distinctive 12-hour bi-directional rotating bezel surrounds a black dial with a raised, applied metallic Omega logo, an attractive feature of vintage Omega watches, such as the vintage Speedmaster. With features such as a day of the week and date, this Seamaster Cosmic offers practicality and vintage style. With a recent service, this is an unusual and relatively inexpensive vintage Omega that is guaranteed to offer years of carefree wear.

Omega is one of the world’s most recognizable luxury watch brands. Although founded in 1848, the company did not become known as Omega until 1894, when the company took the name of its highly successful new watch movement. The revolutionary movement used a single crown for both winding and time setting. Success followed success when in 1905, due to its commitment to accuracy, Omega became the official timekeeper for Swiss sporting events. Later in 1932, Omega became the official timekeeper of the Olympic Games. To mark Omega’s 100th year anniversary, Omega introduced the watch that would become one of the world’s most popular watches, the Seamaster. While these are remarkable achievements, the watch that made Omega a legend among watchmakers was the Speedmaster, the only watch to survive the brutal NASA testing requirements and the only watch certified by NASA for use in Space. It is no surprise that Omega watches are recognized today as spectacularly rugged tool watches hiding in a luxury watch.
