Hello,
I recently purchased this late 1960s Seamaster 168.034 with a 751 caliber. It has a sparkle dial. The bracelet is a 1162 and everything is in pristine condition for its age. It was serviced pretty recently and keeps time accurately. I don’t plan on getting it wet so I don’t know how much pressure it can withstand now. I don’t know a ton about the omega history, or where this seamaster falls in all the variations. Any bits of information would be appreciated, or what you think this watch would go for. I hope I got a good deal.

In case you are looking, the correct bracelet would be 1170 with #604 end-links. The cushion cases probably aren't as popular as the more conventional style, but even so I'd expect that watch and bracelet to bring at least $600 USD.

I don’t think the bracelets correct (or certainly the endlink). Head only I’d say around £500. Extra £100+ for bracelet.

Edit: @Dan S beat me to it re the bracelet.

Thanks for the information. Looks like what I paid was on par with what you all thought.

Hello from mine. These are great watches, and your looks very nice. Mine was a cheap mess and I sent it to Omega who really did a great job on making it respectable again. One of the features I like on these watches is the rubber buffer between the inner and outer case as a way of protecting the movement against bumps. Enjoy
