Omega Seamaster Cosmic Automatic (1967) – Ref. 166022 – Cal. 565

A sharp and highly wearable example from Omega’s late-1960s lineup—the Seamaster Cosmic. Dating to 1967, this piece combines classic Omega engineering with a slightly more modern case design, making it a great entry into vintage or a solid everyday classic.

The clean white crosshair dial has been professionally refurbished to a high standard, paired with gold-tone indices and hands that give it a warm, elegant presence on the wrist.

Powered by the ever-reliable calibre 565 automatic movement, featuring the always-useful date display—a genuinely practical addition for daily wear.

Why This Watch Works

The Cosmic range sits slightly under the radar—but that’s exactly why it makes sense. You’re getting a proper Omega automatic with a top-tier movement, classic styling, and everyday usability without paying Constellation money.

The calibre 565 is one of Omega’s best—simple, robust, and built to last.
