SPECIFICATIONS

Vintage Omega 145.016 Seamaster chronograph in stainless steel on an olive green leather strap. Manual wind caliber 861 movement, functioning as it should and keeping excellent time. Chronograph has been tested over 12 hours and performs as it should.

Black dial with contrasting white tachymeter scale, radial sub-dials, tritium dotted hour markers, matching luminous/white hour and minute hands and white chronograph hand, running seconds at nine, thirty-minute chronograph counter at three and twelve-hour chronograph counter at six. Generic Hesalite crystal. Screw down case back. This watch has the same 861 movement as the legendary Omega Moon watch.

Please note that there were quite a number of variations to this model, some with orange second hands.

Case diameter 39mm Thickness 14.3mm. Case has been lightly polished. In excellent overall condition.

Exact service history date unknown but it would have been in the last 5 years.

These sporting chronograph models have increased in value significantly over the last 10 years. An equivalent Omega Speedmaster 861 in similar condition would sell at twice the price. Great value compared to Rolex or many other luxury brands.

WATCH ONLY. NO BOX & PAPERS

Serious enquiries only please and no ‘low-ball’/”I saw it cheaper on e-Bay” appraisals will be responded to, as the appeal of the watch should be the primary reason to buy it and not the price. If you are a vintage watch lover we can talk, and reasonable offers will be considered if you PM me with an offer.
