A lifetime of work was honoured with this watch — in fact, 20 years of service to none other than Heinz, the famous baked beans and ketchup producer. Whether this Omega was awarded for dedicated service in the bean line or excellence in tomato ketchup production, it’s a brilliant piece with a brilliant story attached.
This is the Omega Seamaster Date reference 166.067, featuring a 35mm barrel‑shaped (cushion) case and powered by the iconic Calibre 565 automatic movement. Dated to 1972 by the papers, with the serial indicating production in 1971, it remains in charming and original condition.
