Well, I've never really been into vintage watches, but then I was given this as a gift recently, and I'm blown away!
It's a 1971 Omega Seamaster Auto, and I've since purchased a genuine NOS black leather strap and also a genuine Omega bracelet although unfortunately not the original 1170/604 combination which is quite rare and now discontinued.
Anybody know what sort of watch box this would originally have shipped in?

Ideal number of watches in your collection = current number of watches + 1...

Very classy and sexy at the same time. Enjoy!
I guess you could post in the omega forum at TZ. Maybe contact Omega?

Re: My 'New' Vintage Omega...
That's nice I really like vintage watches and have about 12 now, mostly various versions of the Tissot Seastar, which was kinda like a sister watch to the Seamaster (tissot & Omega merged in 1930) and was the 'more affordable' choice back then, so I believe?!!
This could be dangerous for you now, as I started off with just one vintage Omega Geneve.............and have now 'gone off on one' and have around 8 Tissots, one Titoni, a Rado and one or two random vintage watches!! They're all great tho
Enjoy the watch.....great gift
