The Elves in The Urban Jungle – Vintage Omega Seamaster 120 Replica Watch


Today is a bittersweet day for me as many people have returned home for the Chinese New Year, while I am still working. In my quest to complete this review, I have thoroughly explored the watch market and finally stumbled upon this captivating timepiece. Although I have written numerous reviews on vintage watches, it’s no secret that vintage timepieces hold a special place in my heart. Many readers of my blog have also inquired about vintage watches from different brands that haven’t been covered yet. While not all of these watches are currently in production, I would like to recommend two exceptional choices: the Daytona Paul Newman and the Sea-Dweller Double Red. Now, let’s dive into the review of this vintage replica Omega Seamaster. The dial proudly displays the inscription “Seamaster 120,” and I have often wondered about the significance of the number “120.” Could it possibly indicate that the watch boasts a water resistance of 120 meters? Additionally, I am curious to know if this particular model was manufactured in 1968.

Indeed, this replica watch is truly remarkable, as every intricate detail has been meticulously replicated to closely resemble the genuine counterpart. One of its standout features is the outstanding movement it utilizes – a genuine Japanese automatic movement known as the Miyota 8215. This imported movement boasts superior accuracy and reliability compared to other clone automatic movements. Despite its smaller size, with a case diameter of only 38.5mm, this timepiece does not compromise on style. The black bezel, reminiscent of a diver’s watch, is adorned with white markings, while the black dial is protected by a plexi crystal face, just like the genuine model. The hour markers and hands are adorned with high-quality luminescent material, ensuring long-lasting and luminous illumination during nighttime wear.

In order to capture the essence of the vintage style, the manufacturer has opted for a suede grey leather strap for this replica Omega. The outer surface of the strap lends a textured and slightly hairy feel, while the inner side boasts a smooth leather finish. The solid case back showcases a unique Seamaster logo that differs from the modern logo’s appearance. The engravings on the back are impeccably clear and tidy. With its moderately sized case diameter, this watch is suitable for most men’s wrist sizes. Coupled with its reliable movement that requires minimal repairs, this replica timepiece is an excellent choice for any man seeking to experience the nostalgic charm of vintage watches.

Here are the specifications of this replica watch:
Movement: The watch is powered by a Miyota 8215 Automatic movement, featuring gold-plated movement plates.
Case: Crafted from 316L Stainless Steel, the case measures 38.5mm in diameter and has a thickness of 14mm. It is equipped with a diver-style bezel.
