Discover the rare 1970 Omega Seamaster Chronograph Ref. 145.029 with its distinctive blue dial and orange hands. A vintage collector's find.

Picked this up last sunday . An early 1970 Seamaster Chronograph that is not seen so often. Lovely blue dial and funky orange hands

Strange engraving on the back, maybe an inventory number ?? Nice clean movement.

Ref. 145.029

Cal. 861

1970

Key Points from the Discussion

The specific combination of a blue dial and orange constant running hands is noted as less common for this reference, with the more typical version featuring white subdials and blue chrono hands.
The watch is praised for its incredibly handsome aesthetic, with the case, dial layout, coloration, and unique orange and black hands contributing to its appeal.
A fellow collector comments on the watch's excellent condition, noting that while they have seen this reference before, this particular example appears to be exceptionally well-preserved.

. . . of blue dial and orange constant running hands for this reference, Thomas. The more common version has white subdials and perimeter, with blue chrono hands. Incredibly handsome; one of relatively few Omega chronos I find appealing on a purely aesthetic basis. The case, dial layout and coloration, and especially those orange 'n black hands - stunning! Cordially, Art
