Vintage 70s Roamer Searock Automatic MST 522 Burgundy Dial Date Steel Watch

About this watch

A bold 1970s Roamer Searock with a deep burgundy sunburst dial, applied baton markers, the Roamer logo and a date window at 3 o'clock. The sculpted, brushed steel cushion case flows directly into an integrated stainless steel bracelet with a Roamer-signed clasp, a classic piece of 1970s Swiss design.

The caseback is marked "Stainless Steel" and "Mod. 522-2120 335"; in Roamer's system the first digits identify the calibre, the in-house MST 522 automatic with date.

Brand heritage

Roamer was founded in 1888 in Solothurn, Switzerland, by Fritz Meyer, and grew into one of the few Swiss houses making its own movements, cases and dials; its movements are signed MST (Meyer & Stüdeli). The Searock was its sporty line of that era, and in the 1960s and 1970s its watches were sold in very large numbers around the world, including the Middle East.
