A robust "TV Case" Omega Seamaster Chronograph with beautiful blue accents with inside the renowned Calibre 1040 movement. Produced from 1972 until 1976. Water resistant to 60 meters. A typical 70's watch which has falsely been named the Seamaster Jedi.


Omega Calibre 1040

The calibre 1040 was the first self-winding chronograph movement used by Omega and calibre 1041 was chosen for and only used in a commemorative edition celebrating the company's 125th anniversary. Exclusively produced for Omega by Lemania. It's the most distinguishable movement of the Omega chronographs because of their subdails @ 9 and @ 6 o'clock and the central-minute chronograph hand (besides the sweep seconds hand).
