What we love about this watch is that omega seamaster watches watche makes no bones about it being ugly (take a look at the original ad campaign to the right). Its ugliness does have a purpose, as it was the only watch able to withstand depths of 600m until the Sea Dweller came along. Take a look at what the development team put this watch through.
This omega seamaster watches is a true oddity. Look at this thing. It is quite possibly the ugliest watch we have ever featured on Hodinkee. But, this is one ugly watch that deserves our attention. It is an Omega Seamaster PloProf, short for Plongeuer Professionnel, or Professional Diver in French.
This watch, actually known for being not the best looking in omega seamaster watches's lineup, was released in 1968 in a limited run aimed at the most intense of divers. This watch was developed with oil research firm Comex (think Rolex), and a man by the name of Jacques Cousteau. Considered to be 'super water resistant', this watch was the predecessor, and inspiration for the Rolex Sea Dweller.
This watch was extremely popular with professional divers, but its retail price was double the price of the Rolex Submariner, and thusly never gained acceptance with leisurely divers. Because of this, omega seamaster watches PloProf is very rare and definitely represents a unique opportunity to own a great piece of diving watch history. It is being offered for $181 at www.watchpond.com, which we think is fair.
