Vintage Omega Seamaster 120m Quartz Ref. 196.0185

This is a vintage Omega Seamaster 120m Quartz wristwatch, typically dating from the early 1980s. The watch features a stainless steel tonneau-shaped case measuring approximately 37mm to 38mm in diameter. It is equipped with a black bidirectional rotating diver's bezel which shows significant cosmetic wear, including heavy scratching and paint loss, indicating an authentic 'patina' from regular use. The matte black dial displays the 'Omega' logo and name at the 12 o'clock position, with 'Seamaster 120m' and 'QUARTZ' at the 6 o'clock position. Luminous baton hour markers and a date window at the 3 o'clock position are visible. The sword-style hands show aged tritium luminescence with a distinct yellowish-cream tone. The crystal appears to be mineral glass or sapphire, showing some minor surface scuffs. The watch is presented on an integrated 'flat link' style stainless steel bracelet which appears to be the original ref. 1382/381. There is noticeable scratching on the lugs and bracelet consistent with a tool watch of this age. The movement is a high-grade Omega quartz caliber, known for its reliability and thin profile during the late 20th century.
