Omega Chevrolet 693450

Now available at OmniWatch & Co, this Omega Chevrolet 693450, reference 693450, is far more than a timepiece — it’s a piece of industrial and horological history. In 1969, this special Omega was presented by Chevrolet to one of its employees in Oshawa, Canada, in recognition of his loyal service since 1946 at Chevrolet’s now historic plant.

As a corporate gift, this watch was never made available for retail sale. It was produced exclusively for company orders, making it extremely rare and highly collectible.

This elegant model features a clean white dial set in a 35 mm 10k gold-filled case, faithful to the understated aesthetic of the late 1960s. It is protected by a domed plexiglass crystal that preserves its vintage charm. The watch is paired with a luxurious Jean Rousseau strap, crafted in Himalayan crocodile leather with delicate gold detailing between the scales — an exquisite touch (strap can be changed upon request).

Inside, the watch houses the Omega Caliber 550, a mechanical automatic movement without date, known for its reliability and classic Swiss engineering.
