Highly collectible and rare, the Omega Seamaster 145.020 “Soccer Timer” was developed and inspired by football, the fascinating sport that stirs our emotions!

With a design reflecting the spirit of the 70s, it features a robust tonneau-style (barrel-shaped) steel case, dials with details in vibrant colors, such as red on half of the sub-dials and orange on the large seconds hand.

These visual elements, in addition to meeting the sporty aesthetic of the time, also made it easier to read during dynamic activities.

Its main highlight is the 45-minute marking on the running total at 3 o'clock, to make it easier to track the regular time of a match.

Internally, it is equipped with the Caliber 861, a recently serviced, robust, and reliable hand-wound mechanical movement, which is the same one used by the Speedmaster Professional “Moonwatch”, the only watch officially certified by NASA to be part of the astronauts' instruments on space missions. This highlights Omega's commitment to offering high technical performance in models intended for recreational use and not just professional use.

In this example, the dial has developed a beautiful cream-colored patina over the decades, being in original condition, without restorations, with some small marks that do not detract from its beauty. The case was lightly polished to bring out its edges. We opted for a black tropical-style rubber strap to further highlight its sporty appeal, and it can also be worn with a beautiful leather or NATO strap.

Today, the Omega Seamaster 145.020 is highly valued by collectors, not only for its striking aesthetics, but also for its rarity and historical appeal.

It is a watch that combines bold design, practical function, and a sporting legacy, representing an era in which Omega sought functional innovations within the world of chronographs.

Its combination of technical features and style makes it a coveted and significant piece in watchmaking history.

Whether you are a collector or admirer of Omega, or even a football enthusiast looking for a rare watch with striking aesthetics and historical appeal, this is an excellent choice!
