The new OMEGA Seamaster Planet Ocean Collection
Since 1932, when Omega presented the Marine – the world's first watch designed for divers – Omega has been synonymous with the professional dive watch. And when the now legendary Seamaster range was launched back in 1948, it further confirmed Omega's position among sailors and divers as the tough and reliable watch of choice.
An Omega watch has been the wrist of many an adventurer, right from the very early days of ocean exploration. William Beebe, the marine biologist and explorer for his record-breaking Bathysphere dives, wore an Omega Marine. So did Commander Yves Le Prieur, the inventor of Scuba. Jacques Cousteau famously wore an Omega Seamaster PloProf, and Jacques Mayol – the legendary freediver known as The Dolphin Man' – also sported an Omega Seamaster on his record-setting dives.
“...OMEGA has been synonymous with the professional dive watch.”
The OMEGA Planet Ocean video introduces the breathtaking collection that includes exclusive Co-Axial movements, professional divers' features and for each one, a full four-year warranty. The Planet Ocean was filmed with a Phantom Flex camera and the compelling video presents the watches in slow motion and incredibly high definition.
“...an homage to OMEGA's dive watch heritage...”
It was with this legacy in mind that Omega back in 2005 launched a new collection of dive watches in the Seamaster range, the Omega Seamaster Planet
Ocean series, which pays homage to Omega's dive watch heritage, while also enhancing the designs with state-of-the-art technology and contemporary styling
to create an entirely new dive watch that has since become a modern classic.
In the same spirit, Omega now presents a whole new Planet Ocean Collection that comes of age with a novel generation of functional dive watches that
not only feature a new, in-house calibre of the revolutionary Co-Axial escapement for enhanced precision but also offers a reborn sense of exclusivity
embraced by today's adventurous seafarers and aquanauts.
