OMEGA has once again demonstrated its prowess in the world of horology with the release of the OMEGA Seamaster Diver 300M America’s Cup Edition. This exquisite timepiece is a celebration of OMEGA’s role as the Official Timekeeper at the 37th America’s Cup in Barcelona.
The OMEGA Seamaster Diver 300M America’s Cup Edition is a 42 mm stainless steel watch that features a blue ceramic unidirectional bezel with a regatta scale. The bezel is divided into two 5-minute pre-start sections and a START section adorned with a regatta-inspired flag. The dial is a white ceramic matt-finish with laser-engraved waves in positive relief, adding a touch of elegance and sophistication.
One of the standout features of this watch is the America’s Cup trophy counterweight on the central seconds hand, which is in the same blue as the Barcelona logo. The complete logo, featuring the “Auld Mug” and a B for Barcelona, is also engraved on the sapphire crystal caseback. Behind this caseback sits the power source: OMEGA’s Co-Axial Master Chronometer Calibre 8806, a testament to the brand’s commitment to precision and performance.
As a certified Master Chronometer, the OMEGA Seamaster Diver 300M America’s Cup Edition has undergone rigorous testing to meet the strict standards for precision, performance, and magnetic resistance set by the independent Swiss Federal Institute of Metrology (METAS). This ensures that the watch is not just a beautiful accessory but also a reliable timekeeping device.
The watch is presented in a commemorative blue box with red stitching and can be worn in two ways: on a stainless-steel bracelet or a blue rubber strap. Both options are fixed with OMEGA’s patented Quick-Change system, allowing for easy interchangeability.
The OMEGA Seamaster Diver 300M America’s Cup Edition is the latest addition to the sought-after Seamaster Diver 300M line, which was first released in 1993. The wave-pattern dial, raised indexes, skeleton hands, and helium escape valve are all key features of this legendary depth-defying timepiece, which has earned a large and loyal fanbase over the years.
OMEGA’s presence in the world of sports and entertainment has been unmissable this year. From the Paris Olympic Games to the upcoming America’s Cup, the brand has been at the forefront of major events. The release of the OMEGA Seamaster Diver 300M America’s Cup Edition is a fitting tribute to the brand’s role as the Official Timekeeper of the America’s Cup.
