Through the years, they have grown and built a strong reputation as one of the leading premium watch brands on a global scale.

Anyone will be in awe of its high precision and high-quality timepieces, and for sure you too.

Omega’s New Special Watches

In the year 1957, Omega launched three timepieces, namely: the Seamaster 300, the Railmaster, and the Speedmaster. Since its release, the timepieces have remained iconic and legendary in the entire luxury watch industry. Watch enthusiasts have shown intense love and have given high praises to the brand. Jumping to  2017, Omega released a special 60th Anniversary edition of each watch model, and it is still the talk of the town in the luxury watch community to this day! That’s how influential and outstanding their timepieces are.  Let us have a look at each edition!

Seamaster 300

The latest edition of Seamaster 300 possesses the authenticity and integrity of the classic version despite it being the newer version. The timepiece is gushed from the CK2913 and it is embossed with the quintessential Naïad sign on the crown beside the 1957 Seahorse beautifully set at the back of the case.

The Seamaster 300 is fitted in a crystal case that has a domed scratch‑resistant sapphire crystal with anti‑reflective treatment on both sides. It is matched with a sophisticated black aluminum bezel that will catch anyone’s eyes. Plus, it is water-resistant! This special edition watch features Omega’s Master Chronometer collection, which comes with super powerful movement caused by the caliber 8806 automatic.

Just the fact that the special edition luxury watch is only limited to 3,557 just shows how valuable it is gonna be!

Railmaster

Same with the previous special edition collection, the new Railmaster is a limited edition as well. The Railmaster watch looks precisely like the CK2914, the classic timepiece that is recognized for its excellent mechanical functionality and extreme rareness by collectors.

The case and design of the newer watch are heavily inspired by the classic one. They are cased, brushed, and polished with stainless steel and are possessed with sapphire crystals and hesalite glasses that protect the dials. You will also see a subtle, laser Omega logo engraved as part of its design, adding to the classiness of the watch’s visuals.

And for a level up, there are improvements made with their anti-magnetic properties and technical advanced movement which has a chronometer certification too. It is assembled with a dazzling black tropical dial complete with retro, recessed indexes filled with Super-LumiNova.

And the most amazing part, the mechanism of the newer edition is upgraded 15 times more than the original one because it is accompanied by Omega’s modern caliber 8806. This one is absolutely exemplary!

Speedmaster

Finally down to the last one, the Speedmaster. Among all the collections presented, we can say that the Speedmaster edition is the most popular and loved in this series. If you are familiar with the “Broad Arrow” timepiece, the 2017 Speedmaster brings out the beauty and key assets of the legendary timepiece. The Broad Arrow was the first Speedmaster. It was the first chronograph wristwatch in the world that runs with a tachymeter, mounted on the bezel rather than imprinted on the watch dial.

Omega’s very own Speedmaster features the 1861 caliber, a sweet legend,  and is enclosed in brushed and polished stainless steel. It is finished with a ravishing black tropical dial with indexes that has the Super-LumiNova treatment. Overall the timepieces will give off modern yet vintage vibes.

Takeaway

Upon purchase, each timepiece will be charmingly arranged and delivered in an exquisitely designed special Swiss oak box that is directly informed by the 1957 packaging, with a Seahorse on the top. The package will also include two spare straps, a graceful touch from Omega that includes leather and NATO options, and a wooden spring bar changing tool.

And if you are planning to avail all three special editions as a set, Omega has opened the trilogy but it is only limited to 557 pieces.

It is a very amusing move for Omega to relaunch their classic watches, and upgrading them with modern designs and technological features. What can Omega not do? Now is the best time to get their special edition watches as they are very limited, definitely one-of-a-kind luxury watches. Without a doubt, special and of high value. You should not miss this!
