In 1948, the 100th anniversary of the founding of Omega, the Seamaster series was officially born, which was the first product line born after the establishment of Omega, so it was definitely a milestone year for Omega. In fact, the Seamaster series was not a true diver's watch at the beginning, but a dress watch with a waterproof concept.
In 1957, OMEGA launched three professional diver's watches, among which the classic Seamaster 300 is the ancestor of the contemporary Seamaster series of diver's watches, which is inspired by the deep underwater world, so the overall shape of the watch is full of power and movement, like a vigorous seahorse moving freely in the rough sea.
Introduction:
The Seamaster case and bezel are made of silicon nitride ceramic with a dark grey hue, which is twice as light as conventional ceramic, making the case durable and extremely light to wear. In addition, the surface of this material has a small coefficient of friction, wear resistance, and high elasticity, so it has excellent durability, and after a fine process, it looks particularly textured.
Although the weight of this watch is only 107 grams, the size of 45.5 mm and the thickness of 17.4 mm are indeed a challenge for most men, but this is also a normal size for a diver's watch, which is something to consider if you have a thin wrist circumference.
The five-grade titanium dial has been sandblasted, and the case presents the same color of gray tones, the dial design is simple and elegant, except for the 6, 9, 12 which are black Arabic numerals, the rest are inlaid with white baton hour markers, the two colors form a sharp contrast, at the same time, the hands are also designed with white elements, reading the time is more clear and intuitive.
The calendar display window is opened at 3 o'clock on the disk, with black characters on a white background, which is a practical and convenient function for many young people.
For many people who need to go abroad, this watch also offers a GMT function, the 24-hour mark on the dark black bezel shows the time in the second time zone, and at the same time, the GMT hand on the disc also incorporates a striking orange element, making it easier to read the time.
The strap is made of rubber with gray stitching to ensure a comfortable fit, making it more durable than a leather strap. The folding clasp is also made of titanium, and the color also echoes the whole watch, which is more integrated.
The inside of this watch is made of OMEGA's own automatic mechanical calibre 8906, which is different from other OMEGA movements, and we can see that the grainy bridges are made of titanium through the back design of this watch. But the same thing is that this movement is equipped with a silicon hairspring, which can still resist a strong magnetic field of 15,000 gauss, and the frequency is 25,200 vibrations per hour; The double-barrel, fully wound, provides a power reserve of 60 hours.
This movement offers outstanding stability and accuracy, certified by the Switzerland Chronometer with an error of 0/+5 second per day, providing long-lasting and reliable support for the watch. Secondly, the watch is also excellent in terms of water resistance, reaching a water resistance depth of 600 meters, allowing the wearer to easily cope with various underwater activities. In addition, the watch is equipped with an anti-magnetic function, which effectively avoids the interference of magnetic fields on the operation of the watch and ensures the accuracy of time.
Summary: Omega Black Technology "Silicon Ceramic" Seahorse, the "Deep Sea Gray" innovation in the material, is not only solid and durable, tough and domineering, but also light in material, is an ideal wrist equipment for adventure and exploration. The price is 180,200 yuan, which is still a challenge for most male watchmakers to get their hands on a silicon metal watch, but this watch is another step forward in the world of famous watches, and wearing it is more avant-garde and fashionable!
