Presented for auction by Second Vintage

This Omega Seamaster Cosmic reference 166.036 is an outstanding representation of Omega’s hallmark design and precision. Presented in dazzling, near-mint vintage condition, it captures the essence of 1970s Omega with a striking gold-tone case and an immaculately preserved sunburst golden dial. Powered by the highly regarded Omega Caliber 752 automatic movement, this timepiece is a rare and desirable addition to any serious collection, combining classic aesthetics with enduring quality.

Brand: Omega
Model: Seamaster Cosmic
Reference Number: 166.036
Serial Number: 30793099
Movement: Omega Caliber 752 automatic (day-date)
Dial: Sunburst gold with applied indices, original hands, and black minute track
Case Size: 36 mm (excluding the crown)
Case Material: Gold-tone stainless steel
Production Year: 1970
Condition: Stunning near-mint vintage condition with only minimal wear. Timegrapher result: -23 to -27 seconds per day, which indicates a healthy movement running within vintage tolerances.

Dial and Hands
The golden sunburst dial is beautifully preserved and glows with sophistication. All applied indices remain crisp and sharply defined, while the original hands are luminous and free of corrosion. The day-date display at 3 o’clock is clear, and the black minute track further enhances the dial’s legibility. Every detail—from the Omega emblem to the Seamaster script—reflects this watch’s well-preserved, authentic character. The lume on both indices and hands has developed a gentle, harmonious patina, subtly emphasizing its vintage allure.

Case and Crystal
The case retains its original contours and sharp lines, presenting a lustrous gold-tone finish with only the lightest signs of careful wear that are barely visible to the naked eye. The monocoque (one-piece) design exemplifies the Seamaster Cosmic's pursuit of elegance and durability. The domed acrylic crystal is clear and remarkably free of marks, ensuring excellent visibility of the dial beneath.

Movement
Driven by the robust Omega Caliber 752 automatic movement, this watch operates with reliable vintage performance. Recent timegrapher results show a rate of -23 to -27 seconds per day, confirming a healthy movement for its age and original configuration.

Strap
A supple, high-quality black leather strap is fitted, virtually unworn, and perfectly complements the gold tones of the watch. The strap offers a comfortable fit and enhances the overall impression of refinement.

Condition
This Omega Seamaster Cosmic is presented in outstanding, near-mint condition with only the slightest evidence of gentle wear. The dial, case, and crystal are exceptionally well preserved. The watch is running reliably within vintage tolerances as confirmed by recent timegrapher results.

Dimensions
Case Size: 36 mm (excluding crown)

Remarks
A rare opportunity to acquire a Seamaster Cosmic in such extraordinary original condition. Its captivating golden dial, sharp case, and superb movement make it a compelling choice for collectors seeking vintage Omega at its finest.

History
The Omega Seamaster Cosmic debuted in the late 1960s as a showcase of modern monocoque construction, enhancing both water resistance and case elegance. Distinguished by its blend of robust engineering and refined styling, the Seamaster Cosmic quickly became one of Omega’s standout models of the era. Outstanding, original examples like this are increasingly prized for their timeless style and remarkable wearability—hallmarks of a truly classic Omega.
