Omega - Ranchero - No reserve price - 166.0218 - Men - 1974

Specifically produced for the Belgian market. This is an Omega with a special history..... The model called the "Ranchero" introduced in the 1950s for the Spanish-speaking market had not become very popular... a watch for 'farmers' did not capture everyone's imagination. In the early 1970s, Omega wanted to revive this type designation and decided to introduce it on a small scale in Belgium. Again it was not a big success.....because compared to the popular "Seamaster" it added little The watch offered here now has an additional peculiarity Omega at the time still had many unused cases for the electronic F300 movementwhich also had not become a successso, for thrift, these unused cases (with lid) were first used for the "Ranchero" type.....hence the factory struck out the original ref. no. 198.0086 and placed the new ref. 166.0218 underneath.!!
