Neo Vintage Innovation
Immerse yourself in the world of neo-vintage watches with this exceptional Omega Seamaster Titane, reference 396.1021. A testament to Omega’s innovative spirit, this robust timepiece from 1987 marries advanced functionality with the unmistakable allure of a watch capable to be worn in any setting.
Crafted almost entirely from lightweight and resilient titanium, the modest 32mm still stands its ground thanks to its integrated bracelet, providing great comfort and durability on the wrist. The sophisticated dark grey dial serves as a captivating backdrop for the chronograph complications, offering superb legibility and a distinctly purposeful aesthetic. This harmonious design ensures it stands out with understated elegance, whether in informal, as well as in more formal settings.
Polaris, or not?
Interestingly enough, this innovative line of watches was introduced by Omega under the name Titane. All of them share the unconventional combination of Titanium with 18K Yellow Gold inlays and radically modern integrated bracelets. Some say the hand of the illustrious designer Gerald Genta has been involved in these. Whether this is truly the case, we won’t (yet) know, but we do know this series was nicknamed Polaris, a name adopted even by Omega themselves…
Adding to its provenance, this distinguished Seamaster Titane is offered with its original box and papers, affirming its authenticity and journey. While the original box is not included, the presence of its documentation underscores its collectible appeal. A timepiece that blends sporting capability with timeless design, ready for its next chapter.
Ce que nous aimons :

- Very good condition Titanium case.

Ce qu'il faut savoir :
- Sauf indication contraire, il est courant que les montres anciennes ne soient pas accompagnées de leur boîte et de leurs papiers. Dans les rares cas où une montre est livrée avec sa boîte et ses papiers, cela sera mentionné dans la description. Tous les achats sont accompagnés d'une boîte à montres en bois noir sur mesure et d'une carte de garantie.
- Proven by years of reliable performance, this vintage watches are perfectly capable to withstand daily wear. Do note, however, that a vintage watch should not be assumed to be waterproof, unless explicitly stated otherwise.
