Omega Seamaster Chronostop

The Chronostop is an unusual model from Omega. The watch is very characteristic of the experimental 70s. In these years Omega brought the craziest watches on the market; some striking due to extreme case shapes, some with the striking use of color and others with exceptional uses.

For the 1968 Olympic Games, a model was presented that proved to be multi-functional: the Chronostop. What is immediately noticeable is that you do not see any additional registers with counters for the minutes or hours. There is also not two but only 1 button on the side of the cabinet. This is the start but also the stop/reset button. The button must be pressed and held again after starting to be able to read the time. If you then release it, it immediately jumps back to the starting position.

The model offered here is the most sought after in the series: the Seamaster Chronostop. It is actually a diving watch with a large case of 40mm which is equipped with the extra functions of the Chronostop. Very cool, very rare and highly sought after! This watch is in good condition, has the original steel strap and has been completely prepared by our specialists.

Furthermore, our watches receive a full service by our highly skilled and qualified watchmakers before hitting the store, so you can wear your special find with confidence. A statement we back up with a 2-year warranty.

With over two decades of experience in vintage watches, we have developed an eye for great quality and great stories. Because we believe every vintage watch tells a story through its unique design, history and patina. A vintage watch is a time-traveling device in that sense. A practical item for daily use, that connects us to something bigger than ourselves at the same time. In an age of single-use goods and quick consumption, a mechanical marvel that is designed to last for generations is quite simply a fantastic thing to have in your life.

At AWCo, we are a diverse team of watch experts, each with their own niche interests and expertise. From history buffs to tech geeks and style gurus, we all approach this beautiful passion from different angles. We operate under the mantra that every vintage watch is unique and so is every client. We get a massive thrill out of helping you find that one special watch that perfectly suits your personality, style and budget. To see you staring at your wrist with a big smile on your face, is what we get out of bed for.

So if you like what you are seeing here, give us a visit, a call or a message via email or Whatsapp. We are looking forward to helping you discover whether this is the watch for you or your loved one.
