This is the same mechanism that equipped the Speedmaster in 1969 for the lunar expedition, extremely reliable and robust.
Steel tonneau case, 41 MM in diameter. Water-resistant to 120 meters.
Gray dial with three counters, two of which are black and red. Small seconds at 9 o'clock, an hour indicator at 6 o'clock and a counter at 3 o'clock to measure the 45 minutes of a soccer half-time. Luminescent hands and hour markers. Bi-directional inner diving bezel operated by crown at 10 o'clock.

In 1948, the "Seamaster" saga began, a model with good water resistance. From classic watch to diver's watch, it was offered in chronograph form in the 1960s.
In the 1970s, Omega turned its attention to a well-known sport, soccer. Enough of telemeters for the military, tachometers for pilots or pulse scales for doctors. Omega has dedicated an instrument to soccer that measures the 45 minutes of a half-time interval.
The other special feature of this Seamaster "Soccer" is its inner diving bezel, operated by a crown at 10 o'clock. An unusual system.

Vintage collector's watch in very good condition.

Watch guaranteed for 1 year.
