introduction

Founded in 1848, Omega is one of Switzerland's leading luxury watch brands. Its name recognition is on a par with Rolex, and it is widely recognized not only by watch enthusiasts but also by the general public. Omega has a proven track record in a wide range of fields, from space to sports and popular culture, including the Speedmaster , which was officially adopted by NASA and reached the surface of the moon, the Seamaster , which was chosen as the official timekeeper for the Olympic Games, and the Seamaster, which was worn by the main character in the James Bond movie series. Due to its history and reliability, Omega has earned the trust of professionals as a brand that keeps accurate time even in the harshest conditions.

Omega's lineup is diverse, with a variety of unique models, including the Speedmaster chronograph, the Seamaster diver's watch, and the elegant Constellation and De Ville. In addition, Omega is always challenging itself on the technical side, such as being one of the first to put into practical use the "co-axial escapement," an innovative technology for mechanical watches, and in recent years promoting the "Master Chronometer Certification," which indicates the industry's highest level of precision and magnetic resistance. For this reason, Omega is very popular in both the new and used markets, and limited edition and historical reproduction models are particularly popular.

However, because there are so many attractive models, some people may wonder, "Which one should I choose?" Below, we will carefully select 10 of Omega's most classic and popular models, explain the appeal of each one, and explain how to choose them.

①Speedmaster Professional Ref.310.30.42.50.01.001

The Speedmaster Professional, Omega's signature chronograph, was born in 1957. It was the only watch to pass NASA's official adoption test in the 1960s, and was nicknamed the "Moonwatch" after astronauts wore it during their extravehicular activities on Apollo 11 in 1969. The current model is equipped with the hand-wound movement Cal.3861, which has high precision and anti-magnetic performance as a Master Chronometer, while maintaining a timeless style that follows the design of the past. It is robust and practical, and can be easily matched with casual or suit styles, making it an iconic Omega model that can be confidently recommended to both first-timers and long-time users.

②Speedmaster Caliber 321
Reference 311.30.40.30.01.001

This is a reissue of the Speedmaster equipped with the famous caliber 321. Caliber 321 is a legendary chronograph movement that Omega used in the 1960s, and was also used in the Speedmaster worn by astronaut Ed White, who performed America's first spacewalk during the Gemini Project in 1965. Omega revived this movement in 2019 with the Ref. 311.93.42.30.99.001, and then produced this stainless steel model as the "Ed White Reissue". This is a masterpiece that combines the design of the time with high quality in every detail, such as the vintage-like case size of about 39.7 mm and the see-through back specification, and it is difficult to obtain because the production number is limited. At one time, the used market price rose significantly, but it has now settled down, so it can be said that now is the time to aim. This is a coveted model for collectors who want to experience the historical value and craftsmanship of Omega firsthand.

③Speedmaster Silver Snoopy 50th Anniversary Model Ref.310.32.42.50.02.001

This popular watch with a playful design was released in 2020 to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the Silver Snoopy Hour, a gift from NASA to Omega. The small second hand at 9 o'clock on the dial features the beagle character Snoopy, and the back of the watch features a unique gimmick in which Snoopy runs around in a spaceship on an illustration of the moon and earth. In addition to this playfulness, it also features the latest hand-wound movement Cal.3861 (Master Chronometer certified), making it highly practical. It has been difficult to obtain since its release, and its high asset value in the used market, at around twice the list price, has been a hot topic, but it has now settled down. This is a watch that you cannot miss if you like unique designs or value collection.

④Speedmaster First Omega in Space (FOIS) Ref.311.32.40.30.01.001

This model is a limited edition Speedmaster released in 2012, the 50th anniversary of the watch, and is affectionately known as the "First Omega in Space (FOIS)". This model was inspired by Omega's first space flight watch (the second-generation Speedmaster Ref. CK2998 at the time), which was brought to space by astronaut Walter Schirra in 1962. With a compact case diameter of 39.7 mm, it reproduces the chamfered lugs, alpha hands, and vintage-style Omega logo that are characteristic of the Speedmaster of the past, creating a classic atmosphere. Although it is no longer in production, it remains popular and maintains a stable market price in the used market. Even if you can't afford the original vintage watch, this FOIS is relatively easy to obtain and is recommended as a gem that allows you to feel the history of Omega at your fingertips.

⑤Seamaster Diver 300M Ref.210.30.42.20.03.001

The Seamaster has a long history, but it is Omega's proud diver's watch that was brought back into the limelight when James Bond wore it in the "007" movie series. As its name suggests, the Seamaster Diver 300M is water resistant to 300m and has a helium escape valve, making it a full-fledged model, but it has also gained popularity for its sophisticated design that looks great with a suit. The model worn by James Bond in the 1995 film "GoldenEye" is still a monumental piece for Omega.

In 2018, the watch was completely renewed to mark the 25th anniversary of the series, and both its appearance and performance have been greatly improved, with a ceramic bezel, a dial with a wave pattern, and the latest coaxial movement. In recent years, there have been many tie-up models with movies, including the titanium model worn by Daniel Craig in the movie (exclusive to "No Time to Die") and the 60th anniversary model of the series. This watch combines high practicality and a story, and we can confidently recommend it as a first luxury diver's watch.

⑥Seamaster 300 Ref.234.30.41.21.01.001

This is a heritage model that brings back to life the 1957 Seamaster 300, one of Omega's early diver's watches. In 2014, it was released as a reissue that faithfully reproduced the original design while incorporating modern specifications, and attracted attention from vintage enthusiasts. It is water resistant to 300m, and the hands and indexes are painted with vintage-style luminous paint, perfectly combining a retro feel with practicality.

In the movie "Spectre" (2015), a limited edition model based on this Seamaster 300 was used in the movie. It was also the first model in the series to be sold to the public with the same specifications as the movie, and it is a special model with a military design with numbers 0 to 11 on a black ceramic bidirectional rotating bezel and a round "lollipop" second hand. Despite being limited to 7,007 pieces worldwide, it sold out immediately and is still very popular today. The Ref. 234.30.41.21.01.001 is a heritage model recommended for those who are attracted to traditional diver's style and those who want to enjoy a different Omega.

7. Seamaster Planet Ocean
Reference 215.30.44.21.04.001

Planet Ocean is a high-spec series that appeared as a higher-end model of the Seamaster in Omega's diver's watch collection. The first model was released in 2005, and attracted a lot of attention for its professional specifications with 600m water resistance and helium escape valve, as well as its bold orange bezel design. Since then, the model has been changed several times, and now there is a wide range of case diameters and materials in the lineup. In recent years, the "Ultra Deep" with a titanium case and a luxurious gold model have been released, and the watch continues to evolve in both technology and design. Planet Ocean is also known for being worn by Bond in the 2006 movie "Casino Royale," and in contrast to the heritage-oriented Seamaster 300 , it is a model suitable for those looking for a modern and powerful diver's watch.

8. Seamaster Aqua Terra Ref.220.10.41.21.03.001

The Seamaster Aqua Terra is a versatile model that sits between a sports watch and a dress watch. It is a relatively new collection that was launched in 2002, and features a simple appearance without a rotating bezel, while ensuring 150m water resistance and luminous paint on the hands and indexes. The vertical striped "teak pattern" on the dial is inspired by the deck of a yacht, creating a refreshing and elegant atmosphere. In recent years, the range of sizes and dial colors has become very rich, and in 2022, a model with a colorful pastel dial was released, which attracted attention. Due to its high practicality that can be used both on and off, it is a popular model as a first luxury watch.

⑨Constellation Ref.131.33.41.21.03.001

The Constellation series has a long history among Omega watches. It first appeared in the 1950s and was known at the time as the most accurate chronometer model. In 1982, the Constellation Manhattan with its bold claw bezel and integrated bracelet was released, and since then, this design has become synonymous with the Constellation.

While the current model continues the Manhattan style, the mechanism has been updated to the latest in-house coaxial movement, further improving accuracy and reliability. In 2015, the Globemaster collection was released, which pays homage to the Constellation of yesteryear, with a round case and a dial called a "pie pan dial" because it resembles a frying pan for baking pies. The Constellation series is popular among women due to its elegant and luxurious design, but in recent years the lineup for men has also expanded, making it a model that should be considered by those who are interested in dress watches.

10. De Ville Ref. 424.10.40.20.02.001

Omega's dress watch line, De Ville, is a series that has been popular with those who love elegant and classical design. In 1967, the "De Ville", which was previously part of the Seamaster, became an independent collection, and since then, many simple yet sophisticated models have been developed. The current De Ville has a wide range of derivative series, including the thin and elegant "Trezor" and the "Hour Vision", which features three-dimensional indexes and a see-through case back, and also incorporates modern automatic movements and magnetic resistance in terms of functionality. For those looking for a dress watch with a difference, De Ville is one of the perfect choices. It can be used in both business and formal situations, and can be said to be a hidden masterpiece with a timeless charm that never gets old.

Future outlook

As we have introduced, Omega has fascinated its fans with a wide variety of models that combine tradition and innovation. This trend is expected to continue in the future, with the introduction of reissue models that bring past masterpieces back to life in the present, and the announcement of ambitious works that make full use of new materials and new technologies. With milestones such as the 175th anniversary of the company's founding and the 70th anniversary of the birth of the Speedmaster (2027) approaching in the near future, the release of commemorative models will also attract attention.

Omega's popularity is likely to grow even more in the future, buoyed by the recent trend of stable second-hand prices. At one time, the price hikes of limited edition models were a hot topic, but the prices of Snoopy models and Ed White reissues have settled down to reasonable levels, and there are many models for which now is the time to buy. Omega also has a comprehensive official maintenance system, making it a brand that is easy to use for a long time. From the latest models to vintage, keep an eye on Omega's trends.
