A very distinctive and rare Omega Seamaster in Excellent condition.

This is the elusive model reference 166.092 that is mentioned at the bottom of Steve Waddington's excellent summary of Omega Pilot Line watches on www.old-omegas.com.

The unique dial is a silver/grey with yellow internal minute track. The dial shows some aging spots but is in good overall condition and absolutely original and unrestored as are the black and yellow stick hands. The other unusual feature is the large slightly oval shaped case which is 42mm across (excluding the crown). Total length of the watch lug to lug is 44mm and the watch is 13mm thick.

The watch shares the same renound calibre 1002 automatic movement as the famous SM dive watches (including the PloProf). The signed 17J automatic calibre has a quick set date feature and hacking seconds and a 33 million serial number dating it to circa 1971. The case has recently been professionally and sensitively polished and retains the distinctive sharp edges along with the Seahorse logo in heavy raised relief on the original screwed case back. The case has an internal dust cover and is signed on the inside with reference 166.092. The watch has the correct signed Omega crown and thick flat crystal and comes with an aftermarket ridged rubber strap with deployment clasp and fliplock. Overall I would rate this extremely rare and unusual watch at TZ 90%.
