    Hi all,
    Since I'm trying to buy another watch, I decided to part with my vintage diver Omega Seamaster 60 from, according to serial, 1970-71. Reference is 166.062.
    I bought this watch at the beginning of 2022 in France, as just serviced by previous owner, and since then sparingly worn, especially during summer.
    Watch is completely original and comes on its nice original bracelet 1069/524, which fits like a glove.
    If you sometimes think about an everyday watch, this is it: perfectly sized, cool, light on the wrist.

    Case: Stainless steel case 37mm excluded crown is in good conditions. It has seen a polishing in the past, but it still retains its shape and edges. Screw down caseback in good conditions, correct reference engraved on the inside. Original, signed and iconic screw down "big" crown works flawlessly. Original blue insert in very good conditions and turning in both directions without clicks, as it should. Original signed glass in good conditions, with cyclops.
    Lug width is 19mm.

    Dial: original blue dial has a missing tritium dot at six, otherwise is really mint, no scratches, no stains or spots, nothing. If you see something, that's just light reflections. Original hands set, just a slight oxidation on the sweep hand.

    Movement: automatic inhouse 565 was serviced in 2021, I have no receipt to provide but it works really strong. Serial 3146xxxx dates the watch back to 1970-71.

    As said before, watch comes on its original signed bracelet 1069/524, one of the two that could be mounted on this reference at the time. Bracelet is in good conditions and fits wrists till, I guess, 19cm.

    Please ask me via pm for any doubt about the watch. I will reply as fast as possible.

    Watch and me are located in Rome, Italy. I'm asking 2790 euros shipped with tracking code and ensured with Secursus everywhere within EU. Overseas transactions are welcome with shipping costs and modality to be decided with buyer.
    Payment via bank wire strongly preferred, a face to face in Rome is possible.

    I have some good feedbacks so far on OF at the following links both as buyer and seller, but plenty of references from other international fora and ebay can be provided if needed:

    Before posting some pics, thanks a lot OF for the opportunity and thanks you all for looking.
