Becoming an formal time-keeper of your Olympics anno 1932, Omega just can’t waste this type of excellent reason introducing one more specific version diving watch. Even though I literally hear the crazy noise of rearing eyebrows appropriate this moment, I still feel obligated to tell you about this exclusive edition timekeeper and present you to definitely fulfill the Omega Seamaster self-winding Seamaster Diver Vancouver replica watch!
Although Omega can make a lot of money offering different types of their stylish Speedmaster chronograph (the 1st mechanized watch that reached the top of the Moon and was the official timekeeper both for American astronauts and -for many years- Soviet cosmonauts,) the Swiss brand name is most readily linked to its plunging watches. Mainly, thanks to their profitable product location from the James Bond franchise.
As you can see on the images listed below, the dial is bright white like snowfall, the markers are light blue as ice cubes and even its anodized aluminum bezel is reddish colored as the Maple leaf around the Canadian flag.
Nevertheless, a scuba diving watch doesn’t exactly appear to be your best option to observe the wintertime Olympic if you ask me. ActuallyReally, you will see two versions: a 41 millimeters made for gentlemen (ref. 212.30.41.20.04.001) and a little more feminine model that measures just 36 millimeters in diameter (ref. 212.30.36.20.04.001.) Both look at the exact same 12.5 millimeters in size so, predictably, the greater watch really looks more toned, whilst the smaller one might appear a bit cumbersome on a skinny hand of your present day girl.
Each model rock the same ETA 2892-based Co-Axial caliber 2500, each limited to a lot of just 2010 units and each bears a unique Limited Edition number in the 0000-2010 range.
To help make the watch more special, Omega also replaces the traditional seas-horse on its case-back using the Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics emblem showcasing “Ilanaaq”, the mark of the Games.
Performing some research on the Internet, I found out that this logo will depend on the Canadian Inuit inukshuk, which had been for a long time used as being a kind of route signal for Arctic men and women but later was a mark of relationship, assistance, and the man spirit. Nice.
Just like all other Divers from the range, this type of watch comes with a unidirectional revolving bezel along with a obligatory helium-get away from device because, like all other Divers, this product has a water resistance score of respectable 300 m.
The sole nauseating issue regarding the assortment is the pair of the coloured Olympic bands performing since the counterweight from the second’s palm. The wedding rings just attract excessive focus to on their own.
