Omega Seamaster Quartz Royal Oak Style Ref 196.0134

Description:

A very unique and different looking Omega Seamaster Quartz compared to the rest. This Omega has a very Royal Oak inspired bracelet with sharp polished angles, brushed surfaces and two center links, so if you are wearing this watch, and someone stood 20 meters away and squinted, they may think you were wearing and AP. The watch is in overall fair condition. with scratches and dings to the bracelet, but this can be expected. Unlike a lot of these quartz Omegas, it is still working and has been keeping good time with a new battery. To set the time, these were rather strange. By pulling out the crown, you could scroll through the hours without the minute hand moving. To change the minutes, you push in the button in the crown and hold for 5 seconds, release and push in again and hold and you’ll see the minutes creeping along. The dial has also been scorched from the African sun, developing aged spots predominantly on the left. If you’re on a tight budget, like a really tight budget and want to have something that resembles and AP, then this is for you.

Dial:

The dial is smokey grey blue in color with a vertical bush finish. The dial has aged to have a gold brass spots around the edge. The hour markers are silver applied inserts. The Hour, Minute and Seconds hands are silver in color with the Hour and Minute hand having tritium. There is a minute track around the circumference of the dial.
