We’re closing in on the 36th edition of the coveted America’s Cup aka “Auld Mug” and the well-known Swiss watch brand-also the official timekeeper-has left no stone unturned. Symbolising their third association with the prestigious sailing role, Omega released the new OMEGA Seamaster Planet Ocean 36th America’s Cup Limited Edition.
Crafted using stainless steel, the 43.50mm timepiece comes with a notable blue ceramic diving bezel that incorporates white and red liquid ceramic to create a 5-minute countdown for racing. This bezel houses a white ceramic dial including the competition’s name at the 6 o’clock position. The central seconds hand also features a special America’s Cup logo as a counterweight. Equipped with the OMEGA Master Chronometer Calibre 8900, the caseback offers a glimpse of the movement through its sapphire crystal back that also features the America’s Cup’s logo. The OMEGA Seamaster Planet Ocean 36th America’s Cup Limited Edition is available in a special 2,021 series and is presented on a matching blue with red stitching structured rubber strap.
