    Up for sale is my newly serviced Seamaster 166.010-67. The case shows some honest wear, but I’ve had a few of these and this one is the cleanest.

    The two imperfections I can intermittently see without a loupe are a little rashy area on the bezel above/slightly left of the 12 index and a shallow ding on the side above the crown. In photos three or four specks are visible on the dial. The crystal sports the Omega logo in the center; despite my inability to get a good shot, it’s nevertheless partially visible in a couple of photos. The crystal looks good in the center with some stressed and blotchy areas towards the edges. The vintage 1502 beads of rice bracelet is in nice shape, fits loosely on my 6.5-inch wrists, and has three more notches to let out for brawnier wrists or an even more dangly look.

    This body style and bracelet combination provides a lot of watch for the money. It’s classic looking without seeming like you’re wearing a museum piece and looks dressy with a suit and sporty when you’re drinking with your ex-con buddies. I ended up accumulating a surplus while pursuing these BoR bracelets. This watch had issues with the crown and stem when I bought it earlier this year, which have been corrected in a full service in early October 2022 (this month, as of writing).

    I am seeking US$1170 for the serviced watch and bracelet, plus shipping from Japan. EMS shipping to many parts of the world are going pretty quickly at a bargain c. US$30 or so. Shipments to Canada and Australia are currently glacial but there are workarounds to be had.

    Please check the photos carefully as they are part of the description. No returns unless grossly misrepresented. Thank you Omega Forums as always for the space and opportunity.

    Everyone should have one of these. It's insanely beautiful, well made and very versatile, as mentioned.

    Anyone who's been looking would be hard pressed to find one as nice, with bracelet that has also just been serviced. Speaking from experience as someone who could have saved a lot of time and money compared to this. GLWTS.

    This one appears to have the original crystal. Mine was replaced at service because of damage, and it stands up from the case a tiny bit.

    SOLD in a spectacular twofer deal with a Japan-only 168.0061—same-same but different, as we say in this part of the world. Thank you Omega Forums for the space and congratulations to the handsome gentleman collector in Singapore.
