The Omega Seamaster "Jedi" Reference 176.005 with a brown dial is a highly collectible 1970s automatic chronograph prized for its distinctive TV-shaped case and reliable Caliber 1040 movement.

  The "Jedi" moniker is an unofficial nickname rooted in vintage collecting culture. Renowned collector Chuck Maddox originally coined the name "Jedi" for the flat-shield Seamaster Ref. 145.024. However, during the famous 2007 Antiquorum "OmegaMania" auction, the catalog mistakenly labeled the chunky TV-shaped Ref. 176.005 as the "so-called Jedi". The name stuck within the collector community, and today dealers and enthusiasts widely use it to describe this exact 176.005 model.

• Case Dimensions: A prominent 42mm width (excluding crown) by 49mm lug-to-lug length, with a thick 16mm profile that offers a strong retro presence on the wrist. 

• Case Material: Most commonly found in Ατσάλι or 20-micron gold-plated steel (often paired with the brown or gold dials).

• Movement: Powered by the legendary Lemania-based Omega Caliber 1040, which was Omega's very first automatic chronograph movement operating at 28,800 bph with a 44-hour power reserve. 

• Complications: Features a central chronograph minutes hand (winged hand), central chronograph seconds, a date window at 3 o'clock, a 12-hour counter at 6 o'clock, and a dual running seconds/24-hour indicator at 9 o'clock.
