## Caption

Developed in conjunction with Comex and the Jacques Cousteau, Omega launched its first waterproof watch designed and built solely for the professional divers in 1970. .

Featured here is a Seamaster 600, nicknamed PloProf (short for Professional Diver in French), it has its crown at 9 o'clock so that the red pusher is more accessible and the relatively cumbersome crown guard does not interfere with wrist movement, made perfect for a diver to adjust the bezel for accurate timing. .

One of the most iconic timepieces in sports watch history, the present lot will be offered in the Watches Online sale opening from 26 Nov – 6 Dec.
