Introduced by Omega in 1970, the Ploprof name was derived from the French words Plongeur Professionnel, which means Professional Diver. The case which is made from a single block of steel allows for superior structural integrity making it waterproof to 2,000 feet. The bezel-locking system gives the watch its unusual shape, it ensures the bezel does not turn unintentionally, a crucially important element when accurate timing is essential when diving at extreme depths.
Omega sent prototypes of the Proplof to Ocean Systems Inc. in Tarrytown, NY for testing and the diving research company reported back stating that the watch was more watertight that a submarine.
Please note this lot is subject to 20% on the hammer price.
