Omega Seamaster Memomatic | Gold-Plated Automatic Alarm | Omega Buckle
The Omega Seamaster Memomatic Ref. 166.072 is one of Omega’s most interesting vintage complication watches, featuring an automatic alarm function powered by the Omega Calibre 980 movement. This example stands out with its gold-plated case, vintage Memomatic dial layout, date display, and distinctive central alarm-setting discs.
The beauty of the Memomatic is its unusual functionality. Unlike many vintage alarm watches that use a simple alarm hand, the Memomatic allows the alarm to be set through rotating center discs, giving the watch a unique mechanical personality and strong collector appeal. Paired with a brown leather strap and factory Omega-signed buckle, this Ref. 166.072 has a warm vintage presence and classic 1970s Omega character.
