Nice 166.032. Both desirable and valuable watch

caliber 751

Not marked chronometer on the dial, likely caliber 752.

Mmm, would be odd to have 18k on a non chronometer. Gold-cap?

Good spot - thanks for the correction. I was basing my guess on the 18ct case.

Thats interesting... I thought the only 18K Seamasters in that case were the golden chronometers

Omega database is no help as usual since they list ref 168.023 as cal 751 and ref 166.032 as cal 752 both as 18k with no mention of the stainless or gold capped case versions.

The 9K mesh band really doesn't look like it belongs on that watch, its way too dressy for a watch thats as sporty as a Rolex Oyster

It depends on condition and servicing, which we would need a better series of photographs for.

Same answer, mint is in the eye of the beholder.
