Description
The Omega Seamaster 1948 Co-Axial Master Chronometer Small Seconds 38mm watch pays homage to the aviators and mariners who relied on Omega timepieces during World War II.
This limited edition timepiece stays true to the original post-war design of the first Seamaster models in 1948 while incorporating modern 21st-century technology. With only 1,948 pieces available, this watch offers exclusivity and a nod to Omega's rich heritage.
The Omega Seamaster 1948 is a stylish, sophisticated timepiece on a brown leather strap. It is powered by the Omega Master Chronometer Calibre 8804, a highly accurate and reliable movement certified to the industry's highest standard by the Swiss Federal Institute of Metrology (METAS). This certification ensures exceptional timekeeping precision and performance.
One notable feature of the watch is its anti-magnetic properties, safeguarding the movement against the negative effects of magnetic fields that can disrupt accuracy. This is particularly useful for individuals who are frequently exposed to magnetic environments in their daily lives.
The small seconds sub-dial adds a touch of elegance to the dial while maintaining a classic and balanced design.
The transparent case-back allows for a glimpse into the intricacies of the movement, providing a visual treat for watch enthusiasts.
Measuring 38mm in diameter, the stainless steel case offers a versatile and wearable size suitable for a range of wrist sizes. The water resistance of 6 bar (60 meters / 200 feet) ensures that the watch can handle everyday activities and withstand some water exposure, making it suitable for daily wear.
With a total weight of approximately 69 grams and a lug-to-lug measurement of 45.8mm, the Omega Seamaster 1948 strikes a harmonious balance between comfort and presence on the wrist. The 19mm lug width allows easy strap interchangeability, providing further customisation options for the discerning wearer.
