Omega Seamaster Cosmic Automatic Day Date Blue Dial Ref. 166.036 – A Timeless Vintage Classic
A true icon of late ‘60s watchmaking, the Omega Seamaster Cosmic 166.036 embodies the perfect blend of elegance and functionality. With its sleek proportions, deep blue dial, and highly sought-after automatic day-date complication, this timepiece stands as a testament to Omega’s legendary craftsmanship.
A Dial That Captivates
The original tuning blue dial remains in good condition, retaining its vibrant hue with only a small mark on the left center—an honest sign of its well-preserved vintage character. The refined hour markers and hands ensure excellent legibility, while the classic Omega logo proudly sits below the 12 o’clock position.
A Case Designed for Timeless Appeal
Encased in a 35.5mm stainless steel case, this Seamaster Cosmic showcases the distinctive monocoque case construction, ensuring both durability and a sleek profile. The original Omega plexiglass and signed Omega crownfurther emphasize the watch’s authenticity, with every part remaining true to its origins.
Rare and Sought-After Bracelet
Completing this timepiece is the original Omega stainless steel bracelet—a rare find—featuring End Links 526 and Bracelet 1098. This very long bracelet (circa 19cm) ensures a comfortable fit, while the vintage-style buckle with the bold Omega logo adds a touch of heritage charm.
A Movement That Stands the Test of Time
At its heart beats the Omega Calibre 752 automatic movement, renowned for its precision and reliability. This day-date mechanism, which allows for both quick-set functionality and smooth operation, has been recently serviced by our expert watchmaker, ensuring it runs as flawlessly as it did in 1969, when this piece first left the Omega factory.
