Essay
The Seamaster is the longest running product line still produced by OMEGA today. It was introduced in 1948, and was loosely based upon designs made for the British Royal Navy towards the end of World War II. In 1967, Omega launched the Ref. 166.026.
This model showcases a shell case crafted from a single piece of stainless steel, offering a durable design that minimizes the risk of dirt and moisture penetrating the watch.
