THE Seamaster Planet Ocean Dark Grey stands as a testament to OMEGA’s commitment to advancing watchmaking technology.
The Seamaster collection, known for its history of groundbreaking technology, continues this legacy with the introduction of the new Planet Ocean Dark Grey—a daring timepiece meticulously crafted in state-of-the-art silicon nitride ceramic [Si3N4].
This release marks the first extensive application of silicon nitride by OMEGA in watchmaking, resulting in an adventure-ready timepiece that prioritises toughness while maintaining a lightweight feel.
The inherent lightness of silicon nitride ceramic provides an additional level of comfort on the wrist, while its robust qualities ensure reliable strength for serious explorations.
The 45.5 mm casebody, patented NAIAD LOCK caseback, and bezel ring all feature this dark grey material in the design.
In a complementary move, OMEGA has opted for contrasting Grade 5 titanium in strategic elements such as the bezel body, strap folding clasp, and sand-blasted dial, complete with anthracite hands and indexes. This specific grade of titanium, favoured in the aerospace industry, enhances the watch’s durability without compromising on weight.
Continuing with the thematic design, the movement itself embraces a dark aesthetic. The OMEGA Co-Axial Master Chronometer Calibre 8906 in Grade 5 Titanium is an ultra-light creation with a GMT function, guaranteeing a sublime level of precision and performance.
Positioned just behind a sapphire crystal with anti-reflective treatment on both sides, the movement showcases the intricate mechanics within. The watch, as a whole, maintains a water resistance of up to 600 metres, aligning with the Seamaster’s impressive ocean technology.
The Seamaster Planet Ocean Dark Grey embodies OMEGA’s tradition of innovation, seamlessly integrating cutting-edge materials with meticulous craftsmanship. The inclusion of silicon nitride ceramic and Grade 5 titanium ensures a balance of strength and lightness, making it an ideal companion for those seeking both style and performance in their timepiece.
