Product Description
The women’s Seamaster Professional from Omega offers great style and superior performance for all your adventures, above water and below. The mid-sized brushed steel case highlights a blue wave-patterned dial with luminous hands and markers and a red-tipped luminous seconds hand, for excellent visibility even in low light conditions. Also featured are seconds indexes and a date display. The dial is capped with a domed, anti-reflective scratch-proof sapphire crystal and framed by a unidirectional rotating polished steel bezel with minute markings and fluted edges for grip. This Omega watch is outfitted on an attractive and durable brushed steel bracelet with polished accents. It boasts Swiss quartz precision and is rated water resistant to a full 300 meters (or 984 feet).
The Omega Story
The Omega watch story begins in 1848, when founder Louis Brandt began hand assembling key-wound precision pocket watches from parts supplied by local craftsmen in his principality La Chaux-de-Fonds, in the northwest corner of Switzerland. However, the Omega name didn’t appear until 1894, after Louis Brandt had passed away and his watchmaking traditions were taken over by his sons, Louis-Paul and Cesar Brandt. Omega watches have long been associated with glamorous screen and sports stars–the Omega Seamaster is famous for being the watch of choice for James Bond–with current ambassadors including Pierce Brosnan, Nicole Kidman, tennis player Anna Kournikova, and swimmers Michael Phelps and Ian Thorpe.
But Omega is more than just a fashionable watch. In 1965, the Omega Speedmaster chronograph was “flight-qualified by NASA for all manned space missions” as the only wristwatch to have withstood all of the U.S. space agency’s severe tests, including passing grades for extreme shocks, vibrations, and temperatures ranging from -18 to +93 degrees Celsius. The greatest moment in the Speedmaster’s history was undoubtedly 20 July 1969 at 02:56 GMT, when it recorded man’s first steps on the Moon’s surface as part of the Apollo 11 mission. Today, Omega is known for its rigorous testing of new movements, cases, and bands. Each new Omega movement is tested on the wrist in existing Omega models, while various laboratory tests are conducted to determine temperature-resistance, shock-resistance and vibration-resistance.
