Omega Seamaster ‘Isa Bin Salman Al Khalifa’ in Rose Gold – Ref. 166.020

This Seamaster reference 166.020 in solid 18k rose gold (rare) is a quiet but unusual find. Its dial carries a special-order portrait of Isa Bin Salman Al Khalifa, former ruler of Bahrain, a detail that sets it apart from standard production pieces. Such commissions were often made as diplomatic gifts and rarely appear on the open market. Inside ticks Omega’s calibre 562, a dependable hand wound date movement. It’s an elegant example of how familiar Omega design occasionally met specific historical requests.
