Why We Love This Watch

It's easy to forget that the Omega Seamaster is Omega's oldest and most varied watch line in their catalog. Started in 1948 as to commemorate the 100th anniversary of Omega, it was based on the Omega Marine, the original dive watch made in 1932. Nowadays, the Seamaster is more known as Omega's diver line and is the direct competitor of the Rolex Submariner.

A simple and elegant three-handed automatic watch, the Omega Seamaster cleverly disguises its durability despite being encased in a gold-toned case. On this particular reference, the patina on the champagne-like gold dial is very even throughout. The gold indices and the slim, baton-like hands subtly complement the rest of the watch. With today's obsession with perfection, watches like this serves as a warm connection and a reminder that not everything has to be perfect for something to be desired.
