Omega reference 176.010 and introduced in 1973. This model was named the Yachting Regatta and was classified as part of the Seamaster family of watches. Its inner ring permits its usage for regatta races, so Omega targeted a specific segment of the chronograph market with the introduction of this model. 
The S/S case measures 43mm in diameter. 
Untouched blue iridescent dial, applied markers and applied Omega logo. 
Powered by a calibre 1040, actually a movement designed and build by Lemania, and originally introduced in 1972 as Lemania calibre 1340. It runs at 28,800bph, with 22 jewels, and has a 44-hour power reserve.

The watch is unpolished showing small marks from ageing and wear but has the original untouched finish.

A superb Omega Sports Chronograph.
