Vintage Omega Seamaster Compressor Watch Case No. 166.042 RARE RACING DIAL
Posted on June 26, 2019 | By admin
FROM MY PERSONAL COLLECTION – YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED! I have for sale a very rare Omega Seamaster “Compressor” Watch, case no. 166.042 which has the incredibly desirable original not repainted! If you know anything about these watches you will know that the case is unique in that in uses little sprung loaded “teeth” to keep it together and in doing so also keep out water. You will also know that the calibre 565 movement used is one of the finest movements that Omega ever produced. This late 60’s model is in stunning condition with no marks on the case and just one small blemish on the dial (which has never bothered me) which is not unusual with these models with most examples you will find having deteriorated to the extent that people get them repainted. When I bought it I have it serviced my watchmaker and it is still keeping excellent time. I have fitted a new quality blue/black leather strap for the new owner which goes well with the dial.
