Omega Soccer Timer
Can anyone help me out with this watch? I bought this because it looks awesome but I really don't know much about them. Does everything look original or might some of the parts be replacements? I compared it to other examples and it looks original to me.
I know for sure the crown was replaced as was the crystal and chrono hand as I have the originals that came with the watch. Feel free to PM me. Thanks! |

This is the Seamaster Soccer Timer 145.019 with roulete bezel (also used in the original Bullhead) from around 1968 with 861 cal (same used in speedy). The distinctive note is a subdial with the 30 +15 = 45 minutes that is equivalent to a half time of a soccer match. You just need a 1171 bracelet now. Fantastic vintage Omega. Congrats.

Nice watch. However, I thought that this is the original Omega Soccer Timer

Thanks for the info. It's not for sale and I would not know what to ask for it if it was.
Any concerns about the hands? I was told they should be orange but it appears to me they once were and have just faded. I did search for a 1117 bracelet and found nothing so it appears that will be a tough find. Enjoying my first Omega. |

Hour and minute hands should be orange, I think. Just looks like aging

Looks good! I love the roulette bezel. Here is my 145.019 in the other bezel variation it was released with...
