2 part question *PIC*

Part 1:
While working in a Middle Eastern country in the mid-eighties, I purchased, from an authorized Omega dealer, the watch in my photo. On the back it says Omega Titane Quartz 120M. The watch is titanium with inlaid 18K gold and each link is 3 gms of 18K gold. It has a screw down crown. Due to the high polish and rounded edges, this is the most comfortable watch I have ever owned. So light, I forget it is on. I have never seen another like it. What is it and was it limited in its production?

Part 2:
I am about to spring for a Seamaster mid-size # 2055.80. I need to know a good internet source for purchase and I need to know if this automatic is well suited for diving - yes it says so, but I plan to dive in it as I did the one in the photo. Not habitually, but at least annually. I love Omega watches and I think this board is great! Thanks for any help you can provide.
