For collectors who appreciate vintage innovation and timeless design, the Omega Seamaster Cosmic Ref. 165.026 offers a perfect balance of historical significance and refined style. Produced in the late 1960s, this model was part of Omega’s forward-thinking Cosmic series, distinguished by its monocoque (one-piece) stainless steel case—an advanced design at the time that improved water resistance and durability.

This particular example is in very good condition and has been fully serviced by our in-house Omega Certified watchmaker, ensuring reliability for years to come. The silver dial remains in remarkably well-preserved condition, with sharp applied indices, clean minute tracks, and original luminous hands that retain their vintage charm. Completing the piece is the original Omega crown, a detail often lost in lesser examples.

The watch is paired with the iconic Omega beads of rice bracelet (ref. 1068) with correct 523 end links, also in very good condition and suitable for wrists up to 17.5 cm. This vintage bracelet enhances both the comfort and aesthetics of the watch, echoing the seamless, integrated feel that defined the Cosmic line.

Housed in a 35mm case, the watch is powered by the robust Omega Caliber 552 automatic movement—a workhorse of the era with 24 jewels and a 38-hour power reserve. It comes with its original Omega presentation box, adding further value for collectors seeking authenticity and completeness.

With its distinctive 1960s design, excellent servicing history, and rare original accessories, this Omega Seamaster Cosmic is more than just a watch—it’s a refined piece of horological history ready to be worn or displayed with pride.
