Launched in 1948, the Seamaster line was OMEGA’s first family of watches. A blend of battle-proven technology and beautiful design, they would go on to conquer the watchmaking world. Released to commemorate the 70th Anniversary of the Seamaster, these 1948 Limited Editions pay tribute to OMEGA’s original post-war classic
Between 1940 and 1945, OMEGA delivered more than 110,000 timepieces to the British Ministry of Defence (MoD), all highly valued by British airmen and sailors for their water-resistance and reliability in combat. A demand for a peacetime application of this robust technology led to the creation of the Seamaster.
The dial of the Seamaster 1948 Small Seconds includes a small seconds indication at 6 o’clock, as well as leaf-style hour and domed minute hand. The watch is presented on a brown leather strap with a polished-brushed stainless steel buckle.
As a further tribute to the many aviators and mariners who have placed their trust in OMEGA, the flat sapphire crystal caseback of each watch is laser engraved and lacquered by hand with a 70th Anniversary logo, a Chris-Craft boat and Gloster Meteor aircraft – the first jet plane used by the Royal Air Force.
A stainless steel case, polished bezel, opaline silvery domed dial and polished crown, embossed with vintage OMEGA logo are common to both models. The watches are presented in their own special collector’s box made of soft brown leather and kept upright but easily moveable thanks to a magnetic floor. A spare NATO strap, leather strap and strap changing tool are also included. Each model is limited to 1,948 pieces.
