OMEGA Seamaster Automatic (1973) ST 176.005

The Rogue Jedi

"TV Case" Omega Seamaster Chronograph with blue accents - housing the Calibre 1040 movement. Produced from 1972 until 1976. Water resistant to 60 meters. A watch which has falsely been named the Seamaster Jedi. This is due to the Antiquorum auction catalogue misallocating the name in 2007.

Normally issued on bracelet. The 005 can be found in steel or gold-plated. The original brushed finish had sharp, straight edges that are obvious on well-preserved, unpolished examples. The steel cases should have blue or silver dials; the gold-plated case should have brown or gold dials. Estimates are that there were around 8,500 176.005 STs in steel made, and 5,500 gold-plated 176.005 MDs.
