In order to honor the Sochi 2014 Olympic Winter Games, exactly one year ahead of the sporting spectacle in Russia, Omega extended its renowned Seamaster Planet Ocean line with two special editions, each limited to symbolic number of 2014 pieces. A bold looking Seamaster Planet Ocean 45.5 mm “Sochi 2014″ Limited Edition is designed for men divers and all lovers of sport watches, while the second model with the diameter of 37.5mm is dedicated to modern women who enjoy adventures.

Next February, Omega will serve as the Official Timekeeper at the Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games, for the 26th time since 1932. Along with the brand’s Countdown Clock which has been revealed in Moscow, a few days ago, the renowned Swiss watchmaker marked the upcoming spectacle with two great wristwatches that became new members of Omega Specialities Collection. A few design corrections have been done to recall the Sochi 2012 Olympic Games, but basically, new models completely follow the design code of the Seamaster Planet Ocean line. Powered with the brand’s most advanced co-axial mechanisms, these diving watches provide a great water-resistance up to 600 meters (2000 feet).

With a robust, 45.5mm wide case, made of brushed and polished stainless steel, this watch provides easy-handling and great readability, which is highly important for any serious diver. Its matt black dial features applied hour markers and Arabic numerals, coated with white Super-LumiNova that emits a blue light in dark, as well as polished, facetted rhodium-plated hands. For an easy tracking of elapsed time, the minute hand and the dot at the 12 o’clock position on a diving bezel glow green in dark. There is also a date window at the 3 o’clock position. The dial is protected with domed scratch-resistant sapphire crystal, with anti-reflective treatment on both sides.

The Seamaster Planet Ocean 45.5 mm “Sochi 2014″ Limited Edition watch is equipped with a unidirectional rotating bezel which is covered with a matt black ceramic ring and features a chromium nitride divers’ scale. The minute scale from 1 to 15 is lacquered in blue, red and white, which recalls the upcoming Winter Olympic Games in Russia. Besides, there is the “Sochi 2014″ Olympic logo on a brushed screw-in case-back, as well as the “Si14″ engraving. One of the key elements that provides the superb water-resistance is a helium escape valve, placed on a side of the case, at the 10 o’clock position. The crown is screw-down for safety reason. Finally, there is a highly comfortable bracelet, crafted in polished and brushed stainless steel.

The Seamaster Planet Ocean is powered with an in-house Calibre 8500. This high-end automatic movement incorporates a Co-Axial Escapement that ensures greater accuracy, stability and durability. Besides, there is an exclusive Si14 silicon balance spring, as well as two barrels mounted in series, providing 60 hours of power-reserve. Bridges and the oscillating weight are decorated with exclusive Geneva waves in arabesque.

The ladies’ Seamaster Planet Ocean is a true beauty. Designed in an appealing “all in white” style, with just a few hints of red and blue colors which recall the flag of the Russian Federation, this timepiece is ideal to be worn by a dynamic woman in casual, every-day situations. Besides, it preserves tough construction and superb functionality, characteristic for the Seamaster watches, so that it can be used even in extreme diving activities. A brushed and polished stainless steel case has the diameter of 37.5mm, which is an ideal size for a ladies’ sport watch. It incorporates a white ceramic unidirectional rotating bezel with a minute scale, colored in blue and red, from 1 to 10, as well as Arabic numerals 6 and 9, on a lacquered white dial.

Perfectly matching a elegant white leather strap, the dial also features applied markers, coated with white Super-LumiNova, with a bluish glow in dark. As I have mentioned while reviewing the men’s model, polished, facetted rhodium-plated hour and second hands also emits blue color, while the minute hand and the dot at the 12 o’clock position on the bezel emit green color. Finally, there is a date window at the 3 o’clock position. At the side of the case, there is a helium escapement valve.

A brushed screw-in case-back is embossed with the “Sochi 2014″ Olympic logo and engraved with “Si14″, as well as the limited edition number (0000/2014). The watch is powered by the in-house Co-Axial Calibre 8520. This superb self-winding mechanism is equipped with a free sprung-balance system with a silicon balance-spring and a co-axial escapement. It provides 50 hours of power-reserve. For aesthetic purpose, it is rhodium plated and finished with exclusive Geneva waves in arabesque.
