Description
Handcrafted by a select group of horologists at OMEGA’s Atelier Tourbillon in Switzerland, this extraordinary timepiece is OMEGA’s first-ever manual winding central tourbillon to be Master Chronometer certified.
Cased in a blend of 18K Sedna™ gold and 18K Canopus™ gold, it features an 18K Sedna™ gold bezel and a sun-brushed dial in the same lustrous material treated with black PVD.
Its indexes, polished minute and hour hands are in applied 18K Sedna™ gold. An 18K Sedna™ gold polished seconds hand is set in the tourbillon titanium bridge. The crown, also in polished 18K Sedna™ gold, features a Ω set in 18K Canopus™ gold.
Presented on a black leather strap with polished 18K Sedna™ gold buckle, this exceptional example of the watchmaker’s art looks sensational from all angles, as the sapphire crystal caseback allows a view of the 18K Sedna™ gold movement: OMEGA’s Master Co-Axial Chronometer Calibre 2640.
Features
- Anti-magnetic: The movement is unaffected by exposure to strong magnetic fields, even those greater than 1.5 tesla (15,000 gauss).
- Chronometer: Label given to a watch which has been successfully tested by an accredited and independent laboratory in order to receive a certificate compliant with the chronometer ISO 3159 standard.
- Master Chronometer Certified: Guaranteeing the Swiss industry’s highest standard of precision, performance and magnetic-resistance, as set by the Swiss Federal Institute of Metrology (METAS).
- Numbered edition: A watch series each of whose pieces is numbered sequentially in the order it is produced.
- Power reserve indicator: A dial or gauge on the watch which indicates how much time remains before the mainspring must be wound or the battery changed.
- Tourbillon: An ingenious principle which solves the tricky problem of adjusting mechanical watches. All the components of the escapement (escape wheel, pallets wheel, pallets fork and balance spring) are grouped together in a small mobile cage which makes one rotation per minute. This eradicates any differences in rate due to different positions of the watch and thus guarantees optimal precision for a mechanical watch.
- Transparent caseback: A transparent caseback – frequently made of sapphire – makes it possible to see the movement inside the watch.
