This stunning vintage Omega Seamaster Automatic watch, Ref 6160, was purchased by a U.S. Marine Corps Corporal on October 22, 1971 at the Marine Corps Exchange in San Francisco.  

For whatever reason, it remained in its original box until now. The case and crystal are in magnificent condition and the rare, sparkle gold dial on this classic timepiece is in perfect condition as well.

Internally the movement is running flawlessly and keeps great time. Along with the original box and warranty, it even comes with the original handwritten receipt for $115.70 (a lot of money for a Corporal back then). The watch comes fitted on its original Omega French Made lizard strap.

Overall this is an amazing piece of Marine Corps and Omega history in truly stunning condition, now over 50 years old.
