One hundred and forty-one. Thats how many new models Omega introduced this year at Baselworld. However, three of them in particular, for very good reason, have been enjoying the lions share of buzz at the show: the Omega 1957 Trilogy Limited Edition Speedmaster, Railmaster, and Seamaster-eac [...]

Baselworld 2017 was a rather strong year for Swiss Omega who had over 170 new timepieces to debut. Our meeting with the brand was overwhelming to say the least. Most important for me was the fact that a good number of their new watches were excellent, offering interesting new variations or improveme [...]

With Baselworld 2017 here,?Omega is releasing fourteen new 38mm Speedmaster watches. Some refer to the automatic Omega Speedmasters that come in this size as reduced, and the brand is noting that these Omega Speedmaster 38mm models will be both mens and womens watches. Sized the same, materials and color choices will separate the mens and wom [...]

When talking about the use of ceramic in watchmaking, Omega has to be mentioned. In 2013, it launched the Speedmaster Dark Side of the Moon which, in my mind, should be considered one of the most important watches in recent history. By then, ceramic had already been widely used and adopted by the watchmaking industry, bu [...]

Those who know me know that?Im a big fan of Omega as a watch brand, so when I was asked to be one of the team members who would test-drive an Omega Globemaster for a few months, I gladly accepted. Im also keen on the bygone Omega Constellation models, so the Globemaster with its pie-pan dial and C-shape case was an intriguing model for m [...]

First produced in 1970 and later relaunched in 2009, the Omega Seamaster Ploprof 1200M Co-Axial Master Chronometer-as it is today called-is one of the worlds most unique and, yes, iconic dive watches. It quite remains the Quasimodo character today, even among professional dive watch [...]

The Omega Constellation has never been one of the main Omega watches on my radar. This fact is interesting to me since I am a big fan of Omega watches overall. If you speak to Omega you learn something interesting that makes sense if you think about it. The world is split up into two major types of Omega markets. Those are Omega Speedmast [...]

This is the new Omega X-33 that we have been waiting for. Our hands-on time with the 2014 Omega Speedmaster X-33 Skywalker ref. 318.90.45.79.01.001 proves that this is the real heir to the cult favorite Omega X-33 aviation/aerospace watch of the 1990s.
