History Introduceret i 1948 for at fejre Omegas 100-års jubilæum, tegnede Seamaster-linjen oprindeligt inspiration fra de vandtætte ure, der blev leveret til den britiske militær under Anden Verdenskrig. Gennem årtierne udviklede Seamaster sig til en mangfoldig familie af urmageri, spænder fra robuste professionelle dykkerure til elegante, hverdagsklædte modeller som denne. I 1960'erne så Seamasteren forfine sit æstetiske udtryk og cementerede sit omdømme som et pålideligt og stilfuldt valg for den moderne gentleman, en arv som denne velbevarede model stolt fortsætter. / Second Vintage SKU: OME-OSX-0054
