  the new Bond watch, Replica Omega’s SPECTRE Seamaster 300

  We take an exclusive, world-first up close look with replica Omega’s new Bond watches

  As marketing associations go, making the watch that James Bond wears is pretty much the most powerful there is. Forget new Omega replica watches worn by racing drivers, or actors, or even actors who were also racing drivers – this is bigger.

  If you doubt this at all, consider this: most watches that are delivered to QP Towers for us to pore over, photograph and review, come in pretty mundane plastic and polystyrene packaging – even the six-figure ones. When Omega sent the Seamaster 300 Master Co-axial Chronometer that Daniel Craig will wear in next month’s SPECTRE, it came in its full presentation box, complete with three-digit combination lock (no prizes for guessing what the code was), Omega-logo push-button clasp and a fair amount of what can only be described as “new car smell”. The message was clear: James Bond’s watch does not travel second class. Never mind spying; Omega understands that Bond is all about theatre, about grand gestures and small details.

  Omega has been producing James Bond’s watches since Pierce Brosnan serendipitously ended up wearing a Seamaster 300m in Goldeneye and the pattern since them has been pretty much the same: new film; new fake Omega watches, usually a Seamaster or Planet Ocean model, with a number of 007-related design tropes slotted in to make the point.

  This year, however, it sprung a surprise. Having already released a SPECTRE watch, back in February, word reached us a few weeks ago that there was going to be another Bond watch this year. And this one is… different. You could describe the flashy Seamaster Aqua Terra from February, with its bright yellow accents and Bond coat of arms adorning the second hand, as the watch of the film. This? This is the watch of the man himself.

  This is the Replica Omega De Ville watch that – we understand – Daniel Craig will be seen wearing during the film; not the Aqua Terra (although it’s entirely possible he’ll sport both at some point). And it is the antithesis of everything we’ve come to expect from an Omega Bond watch. The numbers “007” do not appear anywhere on the dial, and only very discreetly on one of the keepers for the NATO strap. There are no bright colours – instead we have the same vintage-hued luminova on the arrow hands and hour indexes as you find on the standard Co-axial 300, and the same glossy black ceramic on the bezel.

  Indeed, the changes to the watch are relatively minimal. The 12 has disappeared, replaced with a larger-than-usual Omega logo and text. The pointed second hand has been replaced with a “lollipop” style hand – which we just think is great, and does more than you would expect to influence the whole design. Most significantly from a functional point of view, the bezel notation has been changed from a minutes counter to a 0-11 hours scale, meaning the watch can be used to track two timezones. It also now rotates in both directions to reflect the change of purpose; this little switch makes the Seamaster less of a diving watch and more of an explorer’s timepiece.

  Otherwise, it’s the same 41mm case, same lovely mixture of polished facets and brushed caseband, same unguarded crown, and of course the same co-axial, antimagnetic (to 15,000+ gauss) caliber. Of course, because this is a limited edition (7,007 pieces being made; some habits do die hard) there is some custom engraving on the caseback, reading “SPECTRE” and the numbered edition. But that’s mostly hidden by the strap (as is the sapphire display window).

  Oh yes, that strap. We’d almost forgotten. In a great gesture to James Bond fans (and very possibly a sign of the times; after all, Tudor et al now sell watches on canvas straps as standard), Omega has equipped the SPECTRE Seamaster with a mil-spec NATO strap in black and grey stripes. Bond watch nerds will correctly observe that this is not the same configuration as the nine-band navy blue, red and olive NATO made famous by the oddly ill-fitting strap on Sean Connery’s Rolex Submariner in Thunderball. But it is a wholly suitable strap for this Replica Omega Seamaster watch, and has to stand as one of the main reasons Bond fans are going to love it.

  Having worn the watch, as well, it’s hard to imagine it on a bracelet or – heaven forbid – a leather strap. That would risk returning this subtle design to the levels of the core collection, and deprive it of its man-of-action status. It works that it’s light and breezy; some Bond watches in the past have been weighed down with their own seriousness – much like the films they accompanied. It’s no great stretch at all to say that this is Omega’s Casino Royale – back to basics, stylish, energetic and muscular. And very much one for the fans.

  The Replica Omega SPECTRE Seamaster 300 Co-axial is on sale now, priced at £4,785.

  Omega Replica Seamaster Planet Ocean 600M GoodPlanet

  Omega’s long association with the ocean began in 1932 with the invention of its first divers’ watch. In 2011, the brand partnered with the GoodPlanet Foundation, an organization founded in 2005 that promotes environmental awareness and sustainable development. The results of the partnership are evident in the Omega Replica Seamaster Planet Ocean 600M GoodPlanet.

  Intended as a tribute to the GoodPlanet Foundation and its work to preserve and protect underwater ecosystems, the Omega Seamaster Planet Ocean 600M GoodPlanet has a distinctly maritime look, with a bold, blue lacquered dial with applied indices. The hour, minute and seconds hands are polished, faceted and rhodium-plated, and the central GMT hand is fashioned from aluminum. The hours and seconds hands and GMT hand are coated with a type of white Super-LumiNova that glows blue in the dark. The minute hand, and the dot at 12 o’clock on the unidirectional rotating divers’ bezel, are coated with another type of white Super-LumiNova that emits a green glow.

  The date appears in a window at 3 0’clock. The 24-hour GMT scale is printed in orange on the polished, dark blue bezel; the wearer can track the time in a second time zone using the scale and the central GMT hand. The brushed and polished stainless steel case, which also includes a diving-friendly helium-release valve at 10 o’clock, is a generous 43 mm in diameter and water-resistant to 600 meters. It features a domed sapphire crystal with nonreflective treatment on both sides. There is also a scratch-resistant sapphire window in the caseback, with “GoodPlanet Foundation” engraved around its periphery and offering a view of the watch’s movement. The movement, Omega Replica Constellation‘s co-axial Caliber 8605, features automatic winding and a three-level co-axial escapement with an Si14 silicon balance spring.

  The watch is offered with either a stainless steel bracelet (price: $8,100) or an ocean-inspired blue rubber strap ($8,000).Replica Omega De Ville has committed a portion of the proceeds from sales of each Seamaster Planet Ocean 600M GoodPlanet watch to the Foundation’s project to preserve the mangroves and seagrasses in Southeast Asia and educate the local populace about safeguarding these natural resources.

  Omega’s New Replicfa Watches Certification: What Makes It Different?

  In December, Omega and METAS, the Swiss Federal Institute of Metrology, held a joint press conference in Geneva to announce a new collaboration. Starting in 2015, new Omega replica watches that are badged “Master Co-Axial” will be officially certified by METAS, using a new testing system. But what does this mean for Omega, and for watch certification systems in general? Let’s take a look.

  At the December Press Conference, held at the Cité du Temps in Geneva, Swatch Group CEO Nick Hayek was joined by Omega President Stephen Urquhart and Christian Bock, the director of METAS, to discuss the new system.

  The new certification represents a higher standard of accuracy. fake Omega watches will now be certified for not just consistent timekeeping but also for antimagnetism and water resistance. METAS, which describes itself as “the federal centre of competence for all issues related to measurement and for measuring equipment and measuring procedures,” will become the impartial regulating body to ensure that Omega’s manufacturing standards meet the brand’s promises. Going forward, all Omega Master Co-Axial calibers will be tested to meet certain standards. Each movement must continue to function when exposed to magnetic fields greater than 15,000 Gauss. Each finished watch must also continue to function when exposed to magnetic fields greater than 15,000 Gauss. The watch must keep consistent time, between 0 and +5 seconds/day, when tested at different temperatures and in different positions. Finally, each watch must be tested to ensure it achieves its stated power reserve and water resistance.

  Omega’s move to develop a new certification system with METAS is significant for several reasons. For the last several years, Omega has been at the lead in developing new measures to protect watches from magnetic fields. With the Omega Seamaster Aqua Terra >15,000 Gauss, the brand has produced a watch movement that can keep time consistently even after exposure to some of the most intense magnetic fields a person is likely to encounter.

  The key to Omega’s design innovations is the use of antimagnetic materials inside the movement. Whereas the common solution to magnetism has been to shield the movement inside a soft iron Faraday cage, Omega’s antimagnetic watches use silicon balance springs which will not respond to magnetic fields at all. Since Omega has been publicizing its accomplishments in antimagnetic Replica Omega Seamaster watchmaking, the new certification allows the brand to make this engineering achievement official, as a standard that can be confirmed by an impartial observer.

  Another reason for the new certificate is COSC. For years, the Contrôle Officiel Suisse des Chronomètres has been the gold standard for the watch industry. This independent Swiss body tests uncased movements for timekeeping accuracy, and is the only institution in Switzerland that can sanction the use of the term “chronometer” on a watch dial. Omega has long been a major supporter of COSC. Of the 1.69 million watches COSC certified in 2013, more than 447,000 were for Omega, making it the second biggest chronometer producer after Rolex.

  However, in recent years an increasing number of Replica Omega De Ville watch brands have sought other standards of quality or have formed their own, often believing that COSC certification is too lenient. To pass the COSC test a watch movement must maintain accuracy between -4 and +6 seconds per day; however, a movement’s timekeeping can be affected during the casing-up process or when the rotor is affixed on an automatic – and all of this occurs after the COSC test has been completed. Since the new Omega testing will be performed on both the movement and on the finished watch – and since it has a narrower allowance, not permitting the watch to lose seconds, only to gain – it should provide a higher standard than COSC. Omega will continue to certify its chronometers with COSC over the coming years, but the number of movements receiving COSC certification will decrease as more and more Master Co-Axial calibers receive the new METAS certification.

  The new certificate will also have far-ranging effects on how and where Omega manufactures its watches. While testing will initially occur in Omega’s current facilities, the brand has plans for a new factory with a dedicated testing site. Testing will be performed and checked onsite according to METAS specifications. Omega is also making it easier to get information on watch testing than before. The owner of a certified Master Co-Axial Omega will be able to log onto a site using the watch’s warranty card. There, the specific results of the individual replica Omega watches, as well as the testing parameters, will be readily available. At the press conference in December, Hayek and Urquhart were encouraging about the fact that any brand can contract with METAS for an impartial certification system. While Omega has provided its particular standards for the Master Co-Axial movements, other brands could follow suit. Hayek expressed hopes that this development may lead to more widespread innovation. “This would benefit the entire industry – not only in Switzerland but in China and Japan and in other countries with a history of innovative watchmaking,” Hayek said.

  Fratello Friday: Our Prediction for a New Replica Omega Speedmaster at Baselworld 2015

  I would like to use this week’s Fratello Friday to make an educated guess on a new watch that Omega is likely to present during Baselworld 2015 later this month. Almost every year, Omega Replica Seamaster Watches introduces a limited or special-edition Omega Speedmaster to commemorate historical achievements by NASA in which a Speedmaster was involved.

  For example, every five years, Omega introduces a Speedmaster Professional Apollo XI limited anniversary edition to commemorate the moon landing in 1969. Last year, it was the Omega Speedmaster Professional Apollo XI 45th Anniversary edition (we covered it here), limited to (naturally) 1,969 pieces.

  So, going through the list of Apollo missions, we see that Omega would have only a few milestones to commemorate in 2015. There are the 1970 Apollo XIII mission and the 1975 Apollo-Soyuz mission. I also had a look at Space Shuttle missions, (for which the Omega Speedmaster got re-certified; (remember we’ve found one of 56 pieces here?), but it wasn’t until 1981 that the first Space Shuttle (STS-1) mission took place.

  Since Omega did an Apollo-Soyuz limited edition in 2009, with a beautiful meteorite dial (we reviewed it here and here) — and in fact had already done others in 1975 (500 pieces only, we talked about it here), and gold versions in 1995 (250 pieces) and 2000 (50 pieces), I think Omega will drop a new Apollo 13 mission limited edition on us this year.

  Now, officially,Replica Omega Speedmaster Watches released a limited edition to commemorate the Apollo XIII mission in 1995, and used the same watch for the famous white mission cases (50 pieces in total). The model from 1995 was limited (and numbered) to 999 pieces only. I say officially, because an unofficial, but very much Apollo XIII-related, model came out in 2003: the Omega Speedmaster Professional “Snoopy Award.” I am a bit in the dark as to why Omega chose that year to introduce this watch, but I will make sure to ask Omega in Basel.

  The Omega Speedmaster Professional ‘Snoopy’ is a much sought-after modern Speedmaster. I did a write-up on how Snoopy ended up on the dial of a Speedmaster in an article for WatchTime.com, which can be found here.

  I actually own both the Omega Speedmaster Professional Apollo XIII and the Snoopy Award model, and cherish them both. While the Snoopy watch tells us the story of the accident during the Apollo XIII mission in 1970 in which a Speedmaster came to the rescue, the 1995 Omega Speedmaster Professional Apollo XIII simply shows a (beautiful) mission patch on the subdial.

  Until now, if we look at the Apollo XI mission models, we only saw a mission patch at 3 o’clock, on the Missions Suit Case version of 1998 (here is one that was sold separately, though). We also have Apollo XI models with an inscription in the case band, only on the caseback or using silver or even gold medallions on the subdial. The 45th anniversary Apollo XI model didn’t have anything referring to the mission on the dial, it was just an entirely different execution of the famous “Moonwatch,” with its titanium case and Sedna gold bezel.

  So, in other words, chances are pretty slim that Omega Replica Constellation Watches will simply use the official NASA Apollo XIII mission patch again. One of the possibilities is that Omega will use the Snoopy Award again as the commemorative aspect. This would either make it “only” an Omega Speedmaster Professional Apollo XIII 45th anniversary or an Omega Speedmaster Professional “Snoopy Award,” version 2. I can’t imagine the latter, as it confuses people. My best guess would be that it will become the Omega Speedmaster Professional Apollo XIII 45th Anniversary edition, hopefully with a Snoopy image somewhere. If Omega indeed decides to include Snoopy somewhere, I hope the company will do it as tastefully as it did with the 2003 Snoopy Award edition. This particular limited edition is a watch from my personal collection that I really cherish.

  Also, given the fact that the number of limited-edition Apollo models available has gone down drastically in the last few years, I think you need to act quickly, and as soon as you like what you see, order it. The Apollo XI 45th edition was limited to “just” 1,969 pieces and those skyrocketed out of the boutiques. Now, since Omega knows about the demand for these limited editions, especially the demand for the Snoopy (and the 1995 Apollo XIII model, for that matter), it just may make a few more than 1,970 pieces this time around. That is my hope, anyway. Either that or I’m able to snag one of the 1,970 pieces in time.

  Obviously, we’ll have to wait until March 19th to be sure, but I am convinced the parameters for such a watch (i.e, 1970, Apollo XIII) are clear.

  Haute 100 Update: Daniel Craig Wears an Replica Omega Watches in New ‘Spectre’ Trailer

  

  The latest trailer for the upcoming James Bond film, Spectre recently premiered during the NBA finals, and the British super-spy can be spotted wearing what looks to be an Omega Seamaster 300 Master Co-Axial on a nato strap. The Bond series of films has enjoyed a partnership with Omega, stemming all the way back to 1995’s Golden Eye, where then James Bond, Pierce Brosnan also wore a Omega Seamaster 300. The latest Omega replica watches can be glimpsed on Craig’s wrist at around the :36 second mark during the trailer.

  

  In celebration of the new film, Omega has also released a special edition Replica Omega Seamaster Aqua Terra 150M Master Co-Axial, which bears several references to the successful film franchise. The coat of arms of the Bond family has been subtly integrated into the pattern of the blue dial. The symbol also finds residence on the end of the bright yellow seconds hand.

  Omega Replica Globemaster

  On Wednesday 18 March, Omega Replica De Ville hosted a highly attended event at Basel’s von Bartha art gallery where the brand unveiled the highlight of its new collection and the certification that makes it such a revolutionary timepiece. The Globemaster, with its iconic pie-pan dial and fluted bezel, is the world’s first Master Chronometer – it is the first mechanical timepiece to not only exceed the standards established by the Contrôle Officiel Suisse des Chronomètres (COSC) but also pass the stringent tests that are part of the certification process approved by the Swiss Federal Institute of Metrology (Metas).

  Omega announced that it would be working with Metas to develop the new certification process, which includes testing the watch and its movement in magnetic fields of 15,000 gauss, at a press conference in December of 2014. The unveiling of the eight criteria that a watch must pass in order to achieve Master Chronometer status is the follow-up to the news that Omega and Swatch Group CEO Nick Hayek shared with the public last year.

  Stephen Urquhart, president of Omega, explained some of the brand’s major milestones and described how important innovation, implementation and industrialization are for Omega.

  Alluding to the press conference Omega held in December, Mr Urquhart said: “Some of you might have been with us in Geneva in December where we announced a new certification process and a new quality standard for watchmaking in general and for Omega. Now we have finalized that whole process and to make this process really meaningful we have a watch that we decided to launch which will be the flagship of the Omega brand in the future.”

  Omega Vice President of Product and Customer Service Jean-Claude Monachon presented the Metas certification process and described the Globemaster in more detail. He explained that the eight stars on the caseback of the watch not only signify eight of the most important precision records that Omega’s movements set in the 1940s and 1950s, they also represent the eight tests a watch must pass to become a Master Chronometer.

  The symbolic use of these eight stars and the eight certification criteria show that Omega Replica Hour Vision aims to offer its customers only the best when it comes to precision, he said.

  Following Mr Urquhart’s and Mr Monachon’s presentations, the guests were welcomed into an area with showcases displaying the vintage models that inspired the Globemaster and the full Globemaster collection. Writing on the walls surrounding the displays described the Globemaster timepieces and outlined the criteria a watch and its movement must pass in order to become certified as a Master Chronometer.

  The exhibition also included an interactive station where guests could learn about the strength of the magnetic fields of objects they use on a daily basis and they could even measure the magnetic fields of their personal items, like cell phones, tablets, cameras or handbag clasps.

  The Globemaster

  Created in the true spirit of Omega, the Globemaster houses the brand’s most advanced mechanical movement and features a design inspired by early Constellation models that represent horological expertise and Omega’s legacy of precision and outstanding performance. Each watch is certified through a series of independent tests – a revolutionary process that establishes a new quality standard in the watch industry.

  Two design features that define the Globemaster are its dial, which is created in a style that watch collectors have long referred to as a pie-pan dial, and the “fluted” bezel, an element that has decorated several famous Constellation watches.

  Omega’s history also influenced the Globemaster’s caseback. Representing the precision awards that the watchmaker received for the outstanding performance of its movements during the famous chronometer observatory trials in the 1940s and 1950s is a medallion stamped with an image of a cupola of an observatory where the precision competitions took place. Eight stars in the sky above the observatory symbolize the most important precision records that Replica Omega Seamaster set and, reflecting how the brand’s commitment to quality has endured, the stars also signify the eight Metas-certified criteria that a timepiece and its movement must pass in order to receive Master Chronometer status.

  Replica Omega Speedmaster ’57 Co-Axial

  There’s a thin line between 1957 and today. And as it turns out it goes just over the iconic Replica Omega Speedmaster.

  The new Replica Omega Speedmaster ’57 (ref 331.10.42.51.01.002) is a subtle nod to the first ever Speedmaster, with iconic details like the straight lugs and broad arrows. Released at BaselWorld this year and perhaps my very favorite of the Speedmasters released. The historic nod combined with the modern in-house Co-Axial movement 9300 with silicon balance spring makes the Omega replica watches perfect for vintage lovers.

  The 41,5 mm case features another nod to history, the cream almost gold colored index. The color is to reassemble the effect of aging, like it or not but its a spot on little touch to this historic fake Omega watch. You might also notice that the watch only has two sub dials instead of the usual three.

  Through the case-back is the beautiful Co-Axial movement 9300 with silicon balance spring visible. It’s the first in-house movement from Omega replica to incorporate a chronograph function. The sapphire case-back is perhaps not so historic, never the less a nice little feature.
