Crafted with such precision and attention to detail, Omega timepieces only get better with age. With an attractive patina and interesting details, this vintage Omega Seamaster Big Yellow makes a treasured addition to any collection.
Why we love it
The soothing patina, non-fussy modest designs, and the heritage – vintage watches are wreathed in a mystical aura that translates beautifully on the wrist of individuals with an esoteric personality. The Seamaster collection has retained the pride of place in Omega’s storied repertoire ever since its release in 1948, and this vintage Seamaster is a treasured beauty from circa 1970.
Recognised as the Big Yellow, this Seamaster 166.066 features a luxurious vision and a subtle marriage of soft and loud details. It stands out from the rest with its chapter ring. The bright yellow chapter ring contouring the muted silver dial ignites curiosity at the first instance; the overall appearance certainly breaks away from the otherwise pared-down dials of the 1970’s Seamasters.

The case is 42mm in diameter, quite sizable for that era, and is designed with elegant curves and short lugs. The dial on this Ref. 166.066 exudes a good-old-days vibe with applied indexes for hours, slender hands, a date window at 3 o’clock position, and the hallmark scripts. The solid case back continues the same character with a neat look elevated just by the signature seahorse motif. This vintage Seamaster is outfitted with an automatic calibre 565 that ensures a quick date set function and reliable time-reading.
We think if you want to add a vintage timepiece to your collection, let it be this visually-compelling Seamaster Big Yellow – a fine testimony to Omega’s celebrated legacy of watchmaking excellence.

Provenance
At Second Movement, the pre-owned division of Ethos Watches, we adhere to a rigorous verification process where expert watchmakers carefully inspect every watch to certify its authenticity, ensuring it is not counterfeit. We also go to the maximum extent possible to ensure that the timepiece is not a stolen property and that all duties are paid. However, in the absence of any central database, a 100% verification is unlikely for any pre-owned entity in India. Nevertheless, we can still provide a provenance guarantee for watches purchased from Ethos.
Please note all our transactions with sellers are conducted via registered banking channels, accompanied by a signed affidavit, banking proof, and PAN card.
A specific affidavit stating the watch is not a stolen property and that all applicable duties have been paid is also obtained from the seller and is available for buyers in case of legal requirements.
We strive to build trust through transparency and diligence, outlining our verification process and the inherent limitations. Our commitment to integrity shapes every transaction, prioritising your confidence while acknowledging the realities of the pre-owned watch market.
