Dating to 1966 and effectionately known as the "Speedmaster Companion" because it shares some of its design aspects like the lume dots, and long hour indexes in tritium.

The dial has a grey soleil colour and crosshairs with no date symmetry. It is in very good condition with some light ageing to the centre.

The case is unpolished with signed Omega crown, and screwback case with Seamonster logo engraved on the caseback. It has an Omega signed crown.

The hands and dial have developed a lovely deep lemon hue which is even across the dial.

This is a very uncommon watch, you see less of these dials around than the equally rare 321 Speedmasters.

It comes on a generic steel bracelet in NOS condition.
