Omega

Hello everyone...... I came across a watch in a watchmakers "junk" draw.... A Seamaster 200 m automatic chronometer all steel with full length steel bracelet with flip loc clasp and divers extension..... This example is the 37 / 38 mm. Mid size example .....

. . . the most favorable iteration of modern entry-level Seamasters. The absence of a helium valve and the appearance of the bracelet are the main factors in forming my opinion.

A rescue that I also would have been happy to participate in. :)
