About this watch

Omega Flightmaster 145.026 'Helmet' 44mm 1970s This Omega Flightmaster presents in good, unpolished condition with light, even oxidisation consistent with age. The distinctive tonneau case retains sharp edges and original radial brushing across the upper surface, with hooded lugs crisp and free of distortion; no dents or deep marks are evident in normal light. Crowns and pushers operate positively, with the chronograph starting, stopping and resetting correctly; the internal rotating bezel turns smoothly via its dedicated crown. The dial shows even oxidisation that reads honest for age, with printing remaining clear and legible. Hands are oxidised in a manner that matches the dial, with intact shape and correct alignment. The Omega steel bracelet exhibits some stretch as to be expected for the era; links articulate well and the clasp closes securely.
