Omega Seamaster pre bond

Omega Seamaster Professional 200 “Pre-Bond”
Ref. 396.1062 — Serial 51115XXX — 1992

A clean and honest example of the transitional Seamaster Professional 200, better known among collectors as the “Pre-Bond.” This reference represents Omega’s bridge between the late-80s tool divers and the design language that would later evolve into the Bond era.

The watch features the classic wave-free matte dial with applied indices, sword hands and the unmistakable slim mid-case profile that wears exceptionally well on the wrist. The quartz movement makes it a true grab-and-go daily wearer while retaining full tool-watch credibility with its screw-down crown and diver construction.

A versatile vintage diver that offers Neo-vintage charm without the bulk of later Seamasters.

Technical background

The ref. 396.1062 belongs to the early 1990s Seamaster Professional 200 line, powered by Omega’s reliable quartz calibre 1438. Produced just before the Bond redesign, these models are increasingly appreciated for their restrained aesthetics, slimmer cases and pure tool-watch DNA.
