OMEGA reveals its 2022 watches collection with six models in the Ultra Deep collection built in a brand new O-MEGASTEEL and the 28 mm Constellation family now features pastel dials.
These 29 mm models have dials made from natural Aventurine stone, which means no two dials are ever alike. There are twelve new editions, in stainless steel and SednaTM Gold – or SednaTM Gold for purists – all with natural Aventurine stone dials in either green, red or blue. Fans can choose bezels paved with diamonds or engraved with Roman numerals. Replacing the famous Mono-rang bracelet are leather straps in colours to match the dial. The driving force behind the natural dials is OMEGA’s Co-Axial Master Chronometer Calibre 8700 – or 8701 for the all-gold models.
The trio featured have diamond set bezels, skeletonised hour and minute hands and dial- matching leather straps in shimmering blue, red with glittered scale lines or green. Providing the power is OMEGA’s Co-Axial Master Chronometer calibre 8701, visible through the domed scratch-resistant sapphire crystal.
OMEGA’s new 28 mm additions to the Constellation family feature pastel dials in a choice of four colours: Blush Rose, Patchouli Blossom, Celestial Blue and Green Matcha. The subtle new hues also make an appearance on the bezel. To add an extra pop of pastel to the display, OMEGA has matched the engraved Roman numerals to the colours of the dial. All four watches have a case and bracelet in stainless steel and feature hands, indexes and applied elements in 18K white gold. Providing the power is OMEGA’s Calibre 4061, a superb quartz movement that offers unwavering precision.
All models have a Constellation Observatory medallion stamped on the caseback. The iconic image of an observatory, surrounded by the sky marked with eight polished symbolic stars, represents the many precision awards won by OMEGA in the 1930’s and 40’s.
OMEGA Speedmaster ’57 Calibre 9906
OMEGA’s famous Speedmaster ’57, first introduced in 2013, returns in 2022, with a Master Chronometer upgrade and slimmer profile. The new collection consists of eight new stainless steel models, all powered by OMEGA’s Co-Axial Master Chronometer Calibre 9906. The use of a manual-winding movement allows for a thinner case and finer bezel, giving the new ’57 watches a streamlined look. There’s a “sandwich“ black dial edition with recessed hour markers filled with vintage Super-LumiNova – and three releases with PVD dials, in blue, green and a new varnished burgundy. The entire collection is presented with stainless steel bracelets or matching coloured leather straps.
At just 12.99 mm, the new ’57 is considerably slimmer than its cousin the Speedmaster Moonwatch 3861 at 13.58 mm. Of course, there is always a nod to space history on a Speedmaster. The bracelet on the steel version is inspired by the Apollo 11 tribute launched in 2019, and equipped with OMEGA’s patented comfort release adjustment system.
OMEGA Speedmaster Moonwatch – MoonshineTM Gold
In 2022, OMEGA is taking lunar inspiration to the next level with two new models in MoonshineTM Gold. One with MoonshineTM Gold dial, black ceramic bezel ring and blackened subdials and indexes. Another with a PVD green coated dial and a green ceramic bezel ring. To offer aficionados even greater choice, OMEGA is offering two ways to fix their MoonshineTM Gold Moonwatch to the wrist: a matching bracelet or strap. Powering all new models is OMEGA’s Co-Axial Master Chronometer Calibre 3861.
As shown, OMEGA is offering the watch on a polished and brushed 18K MoonshineTM Gold bracelet, or integrated black rubber strap with lunar surface texture on the back and 18K MoonshineTM Gold foldover clasp.
Created in 2019, OMEGA’s exclusive MoonshineTM Gold is an 18K yellow gold alloy, inspired by the shining moonlight in a dark blue sky. OMEGA’s 18K MoonshineTM Gold offers a distinctive paler hue than traditional 18K yellow gold and high resistance to the fading of colour and lustre over time.
OMEGA Seamaster Planet Ocean Ultra Deep
In 2019, the very first Ultra Deep watches made history when they reached the deepest place on Planet Earth. In 2022, the technology that made the dive possible has been transformed into a game-changing 6,000 m collection available to the public.
Taking the next step in state-of-the-art ocean design, 2022 sees the release of seven new models in the Ultra Deep collection. Water-resistant to 6,000 m (20,000 ft), the 45.5 mm range is led by a bold version crafted in sand-blasted and forged grade 5 titanium.
To achieve its unique personality, the watch features a brushed ceramic bezel with a LiquidmetalTM diving scale, along with the distinctive “Manta Lugs” and streamlined asymmetrical case that are reminiscent of the original Ultra Deep model. They support a striped NATO strap, in cyan and black, made from polyamide yarn, sourced from 100% recycled fishing nets. Fixed to the wrist with a loop and buckle in grade 5 Titanium.
Beneath the protuberant and domed sapphire crystal, the dial has been produced in black ceramised titanium with cyan numerals and a blued gradient on the central seconds hand.
Turning the watch over reveals a grade 5 titanium caseback featuring a black laser- engraved Sonar emblem, with the iconic OMEGA Seahorse at its centre. The words “Diver’s watch 6000 m for saturation diving” are included to reaffirm the watch’s adventurous credentials.
Six models in the Ultra Deep collection have been built in brand new O-MEGASTEEL. This high-performance stainless steel alloy once again proves OMEGA’s leadership in the production of advanced materials, with qualities that surpass the normal standard.
Mounted on each O-MEGASTEEL symmetrical case is a ceramic bezel with diving scale, as well as a protuberant and domed sapphire crystal, which is neatly bevelled and designed for maximum strength under pressure. A new crown guard is also integrated to the watch’s case, assuring protection when deep under water.
The choices include white or gradient-effect dials, which transition from grey-to-black or blue-to-black, and include a glossy finish as well as 18K white gold hands and indexes. Each piece includes a grade 5 titanium caseback with the same laser-engraved Sonar emblem and wording as the full titanium model.
Each design is completed by either a rubber strap or an O-MEGASTEEL bracelet. The rubber straps feature a technical diving suit structure on the
upper surface, along with an O-MEGASTEEL buckle. For the metal bracelets, OMEGA’s patented extendable foldover rack-and-pusher has been included, with a complementary length adjustment and an extra diver extension – perfect for use around a thick wetsuit.
Seamaster Diver 300M
The watch that first surfaced in 1993 is back and bolder than ever in 2022, with a wave- pattern dial in a striking shade of green. The 42 mm watch in stainless steel sports a uni- directional rotating bezel with a polished green ceramic ring with Grand-Feu white enamel diving scale. Driving the beautiful new Seamaster Diver 300M with green polished ceramic dial is OMEGA’s Co-Axial Master Chronometer 8800 with special luxury finish.
The model highlighted has a polished-brushed stainless steel bracelet, with a new integration to the case, giving the dive watch a dressy feel. Those wanting a sportier look can choose an integrated green rubber strap.
