Our remarks
We are more than proud to offer you this very good vintage OMEGA SEAMASTER 600 PROTOTYPE, ref.ST166.077, in stainless steel with black rubber strap and steel pin buckle.
Coming with
- lots of letters and lists from COMEX divers.
- COMEX watch maker Mr. Bianchi letter.
- COMEX booklet about the CENTRE HPYERBARE, 1980.
- hand painted cartoons from COMEX divers.
Powered by the OMEGA calibre 1002.
This is an early COMEX PROTOTYPE diver's OMEGA with case number 4-524 plus PROTOYPE engraving.
This watch here came directly from the son of COMEX diver MARTIN, who was one of the first six divers working for the company.
The movement number is in the correct range of 29.000.
The engraving on the case inside is upside down.
Coming also with lots of original COMEX paperwork, even confidential writings.
COMEX watchmaker Mr. Bianchi stated, that knows the watch as the one MARTIN was using in those early years.
The hands and the dial are from later OMEGA production. They were most propably exchanged due to discoloration.
In those years, the OMEGA SEAMASTER PLOPROF was the choice of the legendeary diver JACQUES COUSTEAU and therefore also for many other professional divers as well.
The CEO of COMEX, Henry Delauze was also a fan of this model. However he decided in the late 1960/early 1970´s after testing the ROLEX SUBMARINER and the PLOPROF watches, to go for the more practical and cheaper SUBMARINER 5513/14.
Many different ROLEX SEA-DWELLER and SUBMARINER references with COMEX logo then became the signiture pieces of the company.
This is the reason why in comparison hardly any OMEGA PROTOTYPES are found in the collector's market.
Our COMEX/PLOPROF is a close to impossible to find OMEGA collector's item, worth any serious collection and sure investment piece.
Comes with a one year warranty through our watch lab.
