The Winter Games are coming, so Omega make its role as the Official Timekeeper of the Olympics—an obligation they’ve had since the year of 1932—making this the 28th time the Swiss company is in charge of timing the games. And with the partnership comes with plenty of Omega PyeongChang 2018 limited edition replica watches. Let’s get a deeper look.
First of all, we have the limited edition Seamaster Planet Ocean “Pyeongchang 2018″ dressed in the flag colors of the host country, South Korea. Limited to 2018 pieces, the commemorative Planet Ocean diver’s watch sports a 43.5mm stainless steel case with a blue ceramic dial and blue ceramic unidirectional bezel where the first 15 minutes are made from red rubber.
Also limited to 2018 pieces, the Seamaster Aqua Terra “Pyeongchang 2018” Limited Edition keeps its tribute to the Winter Olympics subtle with small, yet colorful “PYEONGCHANG 2018” text added to the minute track around the periphery of the blue teak-motif dial.
Motivated by vintage Omega stopwatches used to time the Summer Olympics in Montreal and Winter Olympics in Innsbruck in 1976, the company unveiled a colorful collection of Seamaster Olympic watches in these days.
Available in five different colors to represent the five rings of the Olympics, the 39.5mm steel cases of the Omega Seamaster Olympic Games Collection watches house domed black and white dials with Arabic numerals, a date window at 6 o’clock, and a pulse scale to measure, you guessed it, one’s pulse.
The relationship between them will keep on until 2,032 since Omega signed a 100-year deal with the Olympics in 1932. So, Omega replica has produced 2,032 examples of each color variant. What’s more, the caseback of the watch lists host cities where Omega has been the Official Timekeeper of the Games, along with future known cities up until Los Angeles 2028.
To celebrate the three types of medals bestowed upon the best athletes in the world, Omega has made the Seamaster Olympic Games Gold Collection with a yellow gold version, a white gold version, and a red gold version.
The simple time-only dials feature the vintage Omega logo and the vintage Seamaster font set upon the eggshell white enamel surface, along with striking gold faceted indexes and the leaf-style center hands.
