Omega Seamaster Chronometer Ref. 166.028 – 1960s
Highly attractive Omega Seamaster Chronometer reference 166.028 from the 1960s, featuring a beautiful original silver textured dial, stainless steel case, date display, and the renowned Omega Cal. 564 automatic movement. With its larger 36.5mm case size, this elegant Seamaster offers excellent wrist presence while retaining the timeless styling that has made vintage Omega watches so desirable among collectors.
Key Features
• Brand: Omega
• Model: Seamaster Chronometer
• Reference: 166.028
• Period: 1960s
• Case: Stainless steel case
• Case Size: Approximately 36.5mm
• Dial: Original silver textured dial with applied baton hour markers
• Movement: Omega Cal. 564 automatic movement
• Crown: Original Omega signed crown
• Crystal: Original Omega signed crystal
• Strap: Ostrich leather strap
• Date: Date display at 3 o’clock
• Condition: Good vintage condition with signs of wear consistent with age
The watch features a beautiful original silver dial with a subtle textured finish that creates a lovely play of light across the surface. Combined with the applied baton hour markers, matching hands and framed date aperture at 3 o’clock, the result is a refined and highly balanced design typical of Omega’s finest watches from the period.
The stainless steel case remains in good vintage condition overall. Signs of wear and use are present, as expected for a watch of this age, and can be seen clearly in the photographs. The watch presents very well on the wrist and benefits from its larger 36.5mm case size, making it especially wearable by modern standards.
Inside beats the highly regarded Omega Cal. 564 automatic movement, one of Omega’s most respected calibres of the era. The movement runs as expected for a vintage timepiece.
The watch is fitted with a beautiful ostrich leather strap and retains both its original Omega signed crown and original Omega signed crystal, desirable details that further enhance its originality and collector appeal.
