Description

This is an automatically translated text.
Omega Seamaster Cosmic first edition 1960s with very rare grey dial. All original including plexiglass with Omega logo pressure print. I sell together with 3 after market straps that are not original but match perfectly: beads of rice gold color, gray leather and nato fabric. We are talking about a unique vintage watch with unique unobtainable dial and mechanism that works perfectly so the price is not negotiable.

History:
In the 1960s, space was something unattainable and words like moon, spaceflight or astronaut were on everyone's lips. So much was the ambition to reach space first and the moon later that this craze influenced not only the world powers of the time but also watch brands. This went so far as to influence brands in their choice of watch names. Thus famous houses such as Omega adopted names inspired by the cosmos. Proof of this is this famous "Cosmic" that accompanied the Seamaster line, produced from 1966 to 1980. Hence the famous "Seamaster Cosmic." Omega as we know literally went to the moon later with the Speedmaster, which although it was produced from 1957 became famous and iconic only later for its use and collaboration with nasa. However, the Seamaster Cosmic produced three years before the moon landing and called by this unique name, represents the path and proof of Omega's ambitions to push itself up there, up where no one had ever gone before.
And a key milestone in fueling this dream later realized was also him, the Seamaster Cosmic.
Few watches have made history, contributed to it or led to it, and the Cosmic for me is among them. Unique because while in the Speedmasters it is the case back that reminds us of its history in space "The first watch worn on the moon" in the Cosmic it is the dial that bears the Cosmic name. While the back of the Speedmaster indicates the achievement of a goal, the dial of the Seamaster Cosmic recalls a dream, a goal when it was yet to be achieved.

Details:
Gray dial with white details, wonderful with a sporty feel. Gray strap matches the dial beautifully. Gold plated case, original plexiglass crystal with Omega mark in center visible with magnifying glass. Present a few scratches as pictured on both plexiglass and case cone understandable for a vintage watch. Watch purchased in the past already used but fully functional and recently serviced. Signs in the normal range for a watch over 50 years old. No returns will be made.
