OMEGA Seamaster Planet Ocean Chronograph 45.50mm
The new Seamaster Planet Ocean 45.50mm Chronograph is equipped with the exclusive OMEGA Co-Axial calibre 9300/9301, the first in the family of in-house movements to incorporate a chronograph function. The featured models have a bold 45.50 mm stainless steel case with a choice of bezels offered either in orange matt aluminium or matt black ceramic. They have matt black dials.
The featured models are presented on a brushed and polished stainless steel bracelet with OMEGA’s patented screw-and-pin system. The brushed screw-in caseback has a sapphire crystal that makes it possible to observe the performance of the Co-axial calibre 9300/9301.
Some of the highlights of this remarkable movement are worth mentioning again: the combination of the Co-Axial escapement and free sprung balance lead to more stable performance over time and the addition of the silicon balance spring means that the movement delivers a level of reliability that allows OMEGA to offer each one with a four-year warranty.
The feature which has already generated the most enthusiastic response, though, is the chronograph sub-dial at 3 o’clock: the positioning of both the 60-minute and 12-hour recorders on the same counter allows the user to read the elapsed time intuitively.
The applied indexes on the dials of the watches in the new Planet Ocean family are coated with white Super-LumiNova emitting a blue light as are the polished, facetted rhodium-plated hands.
The exception is the minute hand which emits a green light, as does the dot on the diving bezel.
