These were produced in many different styles and configurations, but the general theme of the Cosmic revolves around cushion-shaped cases and simple dials that either have “crosshair” markings, as this example, or chequered minute tracks.The first series were produced with ‘unishell’ or one-piece cases, as this example, with access to the movement only available through the front. Later versions, including the Cosmic 2000, were produced with the more traditional two-piece case. Despite being marketed under the ‘Seamaster’ range, the Cosmic only had a water resistance of 30m - trading water resistance for style and design.The early Cosmics have now become a much sought-after collector’s item.
