History The Omega Seamaster line is known for its robust construction and elegant design language. By the late 1960s and early 1970s, Omega began experimenting with tonneau and C-shape cases, offering a more substantial footprint on the wrist while maintaining the refined aesthetics expected from the brand. The Caliber 565 is regarded by collectors as a reliable automatic movement of the era, known for its practical quickset date mechanism. Examples from this period that retain their original bracelets and clean dials continue to be appreciated within the collecting community. / Second Vintage SKU: OME-OSX-0055
