Omega has released a 2013 re-issue of the classic Seamaster Bullhead from the 1960s, powered by a modern movement and available in black and white dials, both with a square guilloche style dial finishing, and a silver machine finished style dial, all with an inner rotating bezel. Omega has even managed to maintain the exact sub-dial layout and strap/crown arrangement which is rather impressive for such an unusual watch design.

This is definitely a re-issue that has gone to significant lengths to stay faithful to its original.

Oh, and pricing sounds like 8000 CHF + tax.




The old school Seamaster bullhead has always been much loved among Omega collectors, including many guys on OF, great to see it back again:

 

I wouldn't doubt that, but its one of those edge cases like the Ploprof where if they didn't make it that thick, it would lose some of its coolness

Movement is a Calibre 3113 based on a modified Frederique Piguet calibre, and it looks like its already in Omega's new instruction manual too

 

The white with the roulette wheel GMT bezel is still a great classic design. The old soccer timers with this configuration also look great ' it's good to see its still being used.

 

..... that they're not done yet. I'm almost afraid to buy a vintage watch.
