The Omega Seamaster is Omega’s longest-running line, first introduced in 1948 in response to the Royal Navy’s need for reliable and robust timepieces during World War II. Originally designed for submariners, the Seamaster's construction was optimized to withstand extreme temperatures and pressures underwater. In 1955, diver Gordon McLean set a record-breaking depth of 62.5 meters (205 feet) wearing the Seamaster in Australia, solidifying its reputation for resilience and precision.
Among the diverse series of Seamaster watches, the Seamaster Cosmic stands out with its half-dress, half-casual vibe, thanks to its dial variations and distinctive case shape. The dial of the Omega Seamaster Cosmic often features a more modern design, with some models fitted with bi-color chapter rings and prominent dial indexes. Omega initially crafted the Seamaster Cosmic with "unishell" cases, which have fixed backs to enhance the watch's water resistance. This design meant the watch could only be serviced from the front and had a maximum water resistance of 30 meters. The unishell case also gives it a stronger wrist presence, featuring more edges and less curvature, lending it a more modern look. With a versatile waterproof case made by EPSA and a dial rich in detail, the Seamaster Cosmic is a collection that brings joy to any Vintage Omega enthusiast.
The watch we are offering today is an Omega Seamaster Cosmic fitted with a silver sunburst dial in perfect condition. The dial is in nice condition. The unishell case of the watch has not been polished and still retains its sharp edges, highlighting its excellent preservation. The overall condition of this vintage Omega is amazing, pairing up with our classic Grand Series Straps gives it a dressy look perfect for any of your dress up condition or also dress down with a smart casual look.
