1969 Omega Seamaster chronograph ref. 145.016

| | | mm

Sale price€0,00

1969 was a watershed year for Omega, and the 145.016 is a rare, colorful inhabitant of that era. Its tonneau-shaped "C-Case" is a pure expression of late-60s futurism, housing the legendary Calibre 861—the same manual-wind movement found in the Moonwatch of the period. With its vibrant orange chronograph hands and sporty sub-dial accents, it is a high-performance instrument that captures the transition from classic elegance to bold, technical sportiness.

Omega

Founded in 1848 by Louis Brandt in La Chaux-de-Fonds, Switzerland, Omega has grown to become one of the most renowned and respected names in the world of horology. In 1894, Omega revolutionized watchmaking with the introduction of the 19-ligne "Omega" caliber, known for its groundbreaking precision and ease of repair. This innovation marked a turning point for the company, which was soon renamed "Omega" in recognition of the caliber's success.

Omega's reputation for accuracy was further solidified when it became the official timekeeper of the Olympic Games in 1932, a role it still holds today. The brand’s dedication to precision was also demonstrated in 1969, when the Omega Speedmaster became the first watch worn on the Moon during NASA's Apollo 11 mission. Over the decades, Omega has introduced iconic collections such as the Seamaster, Speedmaster, and Constellation, blending cutting-edge technology with elegant design. Omega watches are not only known for their technical excellence but also for their association with explorers, athletes, and adventurers who push the limits of human achievement.
