It would be safe to surmise that Omega was the star of the Swatch Group last year in 2013. 2014 and beyond are looking pretty bright as well, but what we can safely say is that Omega has done a good job of recognizing and celebrating its past, while also firmly looking into the future. A watch like the Omega Seamaster Aqua Terr [...]

The Omega Speedmaster Professional Moonwatch is among the most famous historic watches of all times, and it still happens to be produced today. Here is some more of the back-story behind the iconic watch: Chances are that at some point today youve used a satellite. Whether TV, phone or internet, your digital footprin [...]

Omega X-33 watch lovers will rejoice to know that for 2014, Omega is releasing a brand new version of the X-33 called the Omega Speedmaster Skywalker X-33. You can now insert relevant Luke Skywalker and other related Star Wars references. This is an interesting move as just two years ago in 2012 Omega released what was s [...]

In the days before Baselworld 2014,?Omega began a teaser campaign via social media to get fans guessing what their new dive watch was going to be. One of the last images Omega released of what would be the new Seamaster 300 was of the case with a darkened dial. Less than an hour after it was published online Omeg [...]

For 2014,?Omega thematically follows up the Omega Speedmaster Co-Axial Chronograph Dark Side Of The Moon Watch with their second ceramic-cased Omega Speedmaster that is known as the Omega Speedmaster Grey Side Of The Moon. In some ways it is a new flavor of Dark Side Of The Moon, but in other ways it simply con [...]

2014 seems to be the year of a surprisingly large number of re-released and redesigned versions of historically important watches, and Omega certainly has its share of that by debuting the Omega Speedmaster Professional Apollo 11 45th Anniversary Limited Edition (yes, that), a limited edition of 1969 [...]

Among a wide range of impressive releases for Baselworld this year, Omega has announced another new vintage piece in the same ilk as last years Seamaster Bullhead. Announced a couple months ago, the new Omega Speedmaster Mark II is based on a model from 1969 and takes that successful tonneau Speedmaster design and updates the technology and details to suit Omegas modern line [...]

With the latest James Bond film Skyfall hitting US theaters on November 9th, 2012 Omega has announced a new limited edition model to tie in with the 23rd installment in the franchise. This is distinct from the Omega 50th anniversary of James Bond 007 movies watch. The announcement of the new Seamaster Planet Ocean 600M Skyfall Limited Edition confirms that Daniel Craig w [...]

The iconic Omega Speedmaster watch has a black dial with white hands and markers. Sure Omega has mixed it up over the years, but I believe that this is the very first all white Omega Speedmaster watch. Using the newer and larger Speedmaster Moonwatch Co-Axial Chronograph with the in-house made caliber 9300 movement family, the all white models will be offered in both ste [...]

More than an icon, more than a legend, the Omega Speedmaster is one of the most popular and desired watches around the world. For over 40 years the sport watch that has been on the moon and on our minds, has also had a place on countless wrists. It has represented quality, durability, and adventure to many people. Omega has maintained and grown the collection over the year [...]

For 2012 Omega released a new 18k red gold version of the Seamaster Planet Ocean three-hand and chronograph models with a new type of Ceragold bezel. Ceragold is more or less the gold version of Liquidmetal (that I discussed in more detail here). It is a special process that Omega uses to inset gold in the engraved ceramic bezel. In a sense, this is Omegas [...]

It did not surprise me that Omega had one of the strongest collections of new watches for 2012. While most of my attention was on the new Spacemaster Z-33, the Speedmaster family had some line extensions that were really satisfying. The ones that stole the show are the newest Speedmaster Racing models.These are not just cosmetically enhanced Speedmaster watches with tri [...]

Omega Seamaster and Seamaster Planet Ocean watches get a fair amount of attention at for good reason, and today we are going to look at the Omega Seamaster Planet Ocean Co-Axial GMT in detail. So why all the love? First of all, we are serious dive watch guys even though not all of us actually dive. Such is the power of the high-end [...]

The rear of this Omega Seamaster Planet Ocean GMT Orange Ceramic watch has a curious phrase that Ive never seen on a timepiece before.? According to Omega it is something theyve never placed on a case before either. A promise of World Premiere appears on the case back of this dive watch adjace [...]

In 1969 Omega introduced the Speedmaster Mark (Mk) II as an updated version of the outgoing Speedmaster. It happened to be in the same year that Omega also had a few of its older generation Speedmasters make their way to the moon in the NASA Apollo 11 mission, but that of course is another story. With a newly formed c [...]

This is a review of what may have been the hottest watch of 2013. It certainly was based on internet buzz, and when we first laid hands on the Omega Speedmaster Dark Side Of The Moon (ref.?311.92.44.51.01.003) earlier in that year we knew it was going to be big. Finally, offers a full, hands-on review of t [...]

We covered news of Omegas anti-magnetic 8508 calibre when it was announced back in January. The movement was shown fitted in an Omega Aqua Terra model which is now available for purchase as the Omega Aqua Terra 15,000 Gauss. Using a special version of Omegas co-axial 8500 series, the 15,000 Gauss is the worlds first completely anti-magnetic [...]

It feels like quite a long time since we first saw the Omega?Seamaster Bullhead at BaselWorld this past spring. Now officially announced, this quirky new chronograph was inspired by the 1969 Seamaster Driver (aka the Bullhead) and sports only a few changes when compared to that original, and very rare, Omega chronograph.
