With Omega as the official timekeeper for the 2022 Winter Olympics in Beijing, it’s no surprise that Omega unveiled the Seamaster Diver 300M “Beijing 2022” Special Edition timepiece.
There are special markers at the 2, 4, 8, 10 and 12 o’clock dial positions, in the five colours of the iconic Olympic Rings. The polished, brushed caseback is stamped “Beijing 2022” with the Olympic Rings.
This special edition timepiece, the official Olympic timekeeper since 1932, features a 42mm case crafted from stainless steel, and includes a unique Grade 5 titanium bezel ring with a 60-minute diving scale in positive relief. On the sun-brushed blue ceramic [ZrO2] dial are laser-engraved waves, along with rhodium-plated indexes and hands filled with Super-LumiNova.
Inside the special presentation box, the timepiece is mounted on a polished and brushed stainless steel bracelet, including Omega’s patented extendable foldover rack-andpusher with an extra diver extension.
