Meteorite watch

“In 2009, we celebrated the 40th anniversary of the Apollo 11 mission to the moon,” says Omega president Stephen Urquhart. “This year we commemorate the 35th anniversary of the Apollo-Soyuz Test Project, a mission remembered for its political, technological and historical significance.

“When Generals Stafford and Leonov, both wearing Omega Speedmasters, shook hands in space on July 17, 1975, an era of cooperation in space began which would lead to the building of a permanently occupied space station.”

The brand commemorates that historic handshake with the Omega Speedmaster Professional Apollo-Soyuz chronograph, in a limited edition of 1,975 watches. Its dial is a single piece cut from a meteorite which survived its fiery entry into the earth’s atmosphere and subsequent impact on land.

Stellar sparkle

The white Constellation Ladies Quartz 35 mm timepiece comes with a polished 18-carat red gold case and a white alligator leather strap – an ideal accessory for any wardrobe. Adding to its allure are the 11 single-cut diamond hour markers.

Liquid metal

The Seamaster Planet Ocean Liquidmetal Limited Edition is the world’s first watch to bond ceramics and Omega’s patented Liquidmetal? titaniuim alloy, an “amorphous metal” with a strangely disordered, non-crystalline atomic structure. Its fusion temperature is half that of conventional titanium alloys, but when it is cooled, its hardness is three times that of stainless steel. Its amorphous structure allows it to bond seamlessly with the ceramic bezel.
