Hi,
Here we have a beautiful 1969 Omega Seamaster 120 Ref. 166.073 Deep Blue, on its original bracelet. It is sized to a 7 3/4 wrist and has minimal stretch. This Piece is powered by a Cal.565 24 jewel chronometer grade movement; the same movement found in constellations. It is running strong and keeping great time. The crystal is genuine signed Omega, as well as the screw down crown. The bezel does show signs of wear. But as this is a tool watch I feel it tells the story of a long and full life doing what it was meant to do, be used. It is not chipped just the paint has eroded away under the Bakelite. I honestly love the way it looks and opted to keep it original so as to not disturb the authenticity of the piece. The 28xxxxxx serial number dates this piece to 1969. Which would make this piece a first run, as the Deep Blue was introduced in 1970
These were also known to be issued to the Israeli air force in the 1970's and I wouldn't be surprised if this watch had seen some action!

I tried to take as detailed pictures as possible but if you have any questions please ask.
This is my first time over here on the omega forums. I have extensive feedback on WUS under the same name. With a 100% positive reputation!

Will sell out right for $2200

I am looking to trade for a Speedmaster pro 861 in similar condition. or if you have something else interesting I would be happy to see.

CONUS only please!
