Early Omega Seamaster 300s, such as the CK2913 and CK14755, featured straight-lug cases measuring 38–39 mm and relatively thin bezels. In 1963, Omega introduced a completely redesigned Seamaster 300 line, marking the beginning of the “lyre-lug” era. Produced between 1963 and 1971, the new Seamaster 300 featured a larger case to accommodate a wider, thicker, and significantly more legible bezel with crisp clicks during rotation.
The present example dates to 1967 and is easily one of the best-condition 165.024s we have ever encountered. The original sword hands, "small triangle" dial, and acrylic bezel insert are all flawless, with no visible marks or imperfections.
