A variant of the brand's diving watch range, the Seamaster 60 is firmly rooted in the diver's watch movement (a far cry from the first water- and dust-proof Seamasters). A particular feature of this model is the incredible range of color combinations offered by Omega. Our example offers a colorful ensemble, with a dark blue bezel, dark blue dial, sky-blue checkerboard minute track and a patina of tritium luminescent markers, as evidenced by the Swiss Made T label, indicating a paint finish composed of this radioactive material.
