On July 21, 1969, two NASA astronauts became the first human beings ever to set foot on the surface of a celestial body. When Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin set foot on the Moon, they had met the challenge set only a few years earlier by President John F. Kennedy. The feat has been described as one of mankind’s crowning technological achievements and Omega was literally on hand on this historic occasion.

Strapped around his spacesuit, Buzz Aldrin had an Omega Speedmaster Professional chronograph. Neil Armstrong had left his own Speedmaster aboard the Lunar Landing Module as a reliable backup to the electronic timekeeping system…

It is OMEGA’s enduring and rich maritime legacy that inspired the creation of the Seamaster Planet Ocean 600M GoodPlanet, an innovative wristwatch that serves as a tribute to the GoodPlanet Foundation and the positive work it does for our environment and underwater ecosystems. From the development of the first true dive watch in 1932 to our sponsorship of an acclaimed environmental film, OMEGA’s connection to Earth’s watery surface is deeply-rooted and a defining element of our brand.

The GoodPlanet Foundation, founded in 2005, strives to inspire every person on Earth to live lifestyles that respect our shared environment…

Since their launch, OMEGA’s Seamaster Aqua Terra watches have attracted a large, enthusiastic following. The line characterized by the distinctive “teak-concept” vertical lines on their dials has been extended with the release of the first models with an annual calendar complication.

The Aqua Terra collection is a perfect union of eye-catching design excellence and innovative 21st century watchmaking technology. The Annual Calendar models, in stainless steel or an elegant bi-colour blend of stainless steel and 18 Ct red gold, are a dramatic but logical next step in the mechanical watch revolution which has been taking place at OMEGA since the launch of the first Co-Axial calibre more than a decade ago…

OMEGA has just introduced the new member of the Seamaster Aqua Terra collection, the Seamaster Aqua Terra Co-Axial Chronograph.

Like the rest of the collection, its trademark feature is its “Teak Concept” dial whose vertical lines are reminiscent of the wooden decks on luxury boats. The Seamaster Aqua Terra Co-Axial Chronograph’s luxury-finished movement combines OMEGA’s exclusive Co-Axial calibre 3313 and a free sprung balance for outstanding long-term performance. Its precision is confirmed by its COSC-certification as a chronometer. The self-winding watch is also equipped with a column-wheel chronograph mechanism…

More than 200 years have passed since the tourbillon was invented and today it is still considered to be the pinnacle of watchmaking. Omega has taken this sublime expression of the art of watchmaking to the 21st century with a new Central Tourbillon wristwatch that features a Co-Axial calibre and a brilliant design highlighted with baguette diamonds of the finest quality.

The intriguing dial of the timepiece adds a modern twist to the beauty of the tourbillon, which is visible through the sapphire glass with an anti-reflective treatment on both sides…

In 1957, OMEGA introduced its Seamaster 300 – a watch designed specifically for divers and professionals who worked underwater. The unidirectional rotating bezel and diving scale, along with the combination of a black dial, lighter indexes and large hands and numbers, made it possible for divers to read the time in a variety of light conditions whether they were on land or below the ocean’s surface.

More than half a century later, the Seamaster 300 is reintroduced in a completely upgraded and enhanced form, prepared to equip a new generation of adventurers on land and in the oceans…

More than half a century later, the Seamaster 300 is reintroduced in a completely upgraded and enhanced form, prepared to equip a new generation of adventurers on land and in the oceans. Like its historic predecessor, the new Seamaster 300 features a symmetrical case and lugs as well as a dark dial, lighter indexes and big hands and numbers for easier reading in various lighting conditions.

The 41 mm Seamaster 300 is available in an impressive selection of metallic materials including stainless steel, grade 5 titanium and 18K Sedna gold…

One of the most dramatic technological innovations in recent memory is the OMEGA Co-Axial caliber 8508. It is resistant to magnetic fields greater than 1.5 tesla (15,000 gauss), far exceeding the levels of magnetic resistance achieved by any previous watch movement and solving a problem that has challenged watchmakers for many decades.

The mechanical movement is introduced in the Seamaster Aqua Terra > 15’000 gauss, a 41.50 mm stainless steel Co-Axial chronometer presented on either a matching bracelet or a brown leather strap…
