What a fabulous opening of the Baselword 2012 for Omega. Along with the already covered Seamaster Aqua Terra GMT, the famous Swiss watchmaker has surprised us with a stunning Spacemaster Z-33 and absolutely amazed us with Speedmaster Racing watch. Finally, with the Seamaster Planet Ocean 45.5 mm Ceragold Chronograph, Omega presents the new luxury material of its iconic model. Discover these and other brand’s novelties and enjoy in amazing masterpieces.

Inspired by the iconic “Pilot Line” case that had been used in the past in Flightmaster, Seamaster and Speedmaster families, the Spacemaster Z-33 is powered with a new Caliber 5666 quartz movement that provides a full package of useful features for professional pilots.

The watch combines an analog dial with two digital displays which are controlled by four pushers and a crown, located at the 3 o’clock position. Beside analog hands that track hours, minutes and seconds, the digital display also displays time in two time zones (in 12 or 24 hour display). Furthermore, it can be programmed to show UTC, a date via the perpetual calendar and the elapsed time via the chronograph and the countdown timer. It also features the alarm and the auto-programmable professional pilot functions that can log up to ten flights and record them with date-hour indications.

Thanks to the transreflective LCD technology, the flaming red indicators have the power to overcome even the most extreme conditions, staying perfectly readable. The white markers of the analog dial are covered with white Super-LumiNova, as well as skeletonized hour and minute hands. In dark conditions the Super-LumiNova provides a green glow for the analogue time measurement hands. Beside, the Spacemaster Z-33 is covered with a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal with anti-reflective treatment on both sides to provide a clear view on the display.

The striking case perfectly fits the attractive name of the watch. According to its design, it is prepared for the space mission. It is crafted in grade 5 titanium, combining polished, brushed and sandblasted finishes for the unique aesthetic effect. The screwed in case-back is engraved with the polished OMEGA Seahorse and the brand’s symbol.

Equipped either with a black rubber strap, with striking red inscriptions “OMEGA” and “Speedmaster” or a brown “Soft Touch” leather strap, this timepiece is definitely going to be a highly sought after, not only among professional pilots.

Discover the Roots of the Iconic Collection with a New Omega Speedmaster Racing Chronograph

Honoring the long-lasting connection with the world of motor sport that the Speedmaster Collection had established long before it became notable by the Moon watch, Omega created the amazing timepiece that will surly be one of the brand’s highlights at the central annual event for the watchmaking industry.  This bold looking sport chronograph is absolutely a perfect model that I would never get tired of.

Designed with the perfect sense of balance and the exceptional artistry woven into every single detail, the Speedmaster Racing Chronograph possesses a perfect mixture of sportiveness and the “James Bond’s” type of elegance. It features a 40 mm case made of brushed and polished stainless steel, incorporating a matt black aluminum bezel. It presents the tachymeter scale in a choice of grey, grey/yellow or grey red tones. The screw-in case-back comes with the Seahorse emblem.

A deep and clear grey dial is perfectly readable. It features three sub-dials with beautiful triangular “Clous de Paris” patterns. The 30-minute counter is located at the 3 o’clock, the small 12-hour sub-dial is at the 6 o’clock position (along with the date aperture), while the small seconds sub-dial takes the 9 o’clock position. Yellow chronograph hands nicely increase readability, as well as Arabic numerals at the outer rim’s minute track. Besides, hour and minute hands, as well as hour markers are coated with Super-LumiNova.
