    For sale this 1970's Omega Seamaster Yachting ref. 176.010 in really fantastic shape. This is one heavy duty and very seldom seen Omega chronograph from the 1970's, when Omega was producing some really cool and colourful watches.

    The perfect chunky steel case is extremely solid in construction and reassuringly weighty on the wrist, these are not to be compared with the more commonly seen 176.001 etc references. This is in a different league entirely with a beautiful polished bezel and starburst finish case. I sold my other one of these in 2015 and the case of this one is at least as good if not better!

    Running the powerhouse automatic cal 1040 featuring a chronograph, date and a 24hr indicator together with a 44hr power reserve.

    The watch is running very well with all functions working as they should. I bought the watch with service papers from 2000, it looks to have hardly been worn since then and I have had no reason for my WM to look at it. But just to be clear I have no service history for this piece other than that.

    The bracelet is the correct 1162 with matching 172 straight ends.

    Stunning and highly desirable. Just want to point out one minor thing in your text, which in turn I only know about thanks to AndyK's excellent research:

    The steel 176.010 actually appears to be slightly more common than a 176.001. I believe your meant to compare it to the 176.007.

    Very surprised this is still available... This is a stunning example of this reference - I have too many of these or else I'd be all over it. GLWS @cristos71 !:thumbsup:

    To be honest I'm surprised myself, I sold one in 2015 and it flew. IIRC correctly it sold within 48hrs!

    Anyway, one final bump, a picture together with the Swatch service papers and a reduction to €4250 shipped Track and Trace, can't say fairer than that :)
