On this special anniversary, Omega has decided to celebrate with the "Summer Blue" Collection, which evokes the freshness and beauty of the ocean. This collection includes several iconic Omega Seamaster models, each with its own unique appeal and distinctive features:
Omega Seamaster Aqua Terra 150M Co-Axial Master Chronometer 38mm | 220.10.38.20.03.004
Launched in 2002, Omega's Seamaster Aqua Terra, with its understated presentation, evokes the clean lines of the original 1957 Seamaster 300. Over the years, Omega has added ocean-inspired design touches, such as teak-patterned dials reminiscent of the decks of luxury yachts, and sailboat indexes. The sun-kissed dial in Omega's Summer Blue is highlighted by its sailboat-hull-shaped hands and indexes, both rhodium-plated and filled with a light blue Super-LumiNova luminescent. This blue theme extends to the date window at 6 o'clock. Powered by Omega's Co-Axial Master Chronometer 8800, the 38mm model features a polished and brushed bracelet with rounded links and sailboat indexes. This watch features a remarkable commemorative case back featuring the Seamaster logo, depicting Poseidon with a trident and two seahorses, an original Omega design from 1956 and the brand's current design.

It features rhodium-plated hands and indexes filled with a rare light blue Super-LumiNova, as well as a blue date display at 6 o’clock. Flipping the watch over reveals a commemorative Seamaster logo, showing Poseidon with his trident and two seahorses: Omega’s original 1956 design and the current one.

Surrounding the dial, a silver-tone print of global destinations is complemented by a 24-hour indicator, revealed by the Hesalite crystal, which marks the day in light blue and the night in dark blue. The dial’s exceptional texture and color are the result of Omega’s laser technology applied to a grade 5 titanium plate, illustrating a blue ocean and the continents in relief. It is powered by the Co-Axial Master Chronometer 8938, designed to keep time up to 150 meters beneath the waves, with a commemorative caseback that is the hallmark of this model.

Now, this 41mm Seamaster 300 features a symmetrical case and crown in polished and brushed stainless steel, complemented by a matching bracelet. As its name suggests, this watch is water resistant to 300 meters. Its Summer Blue varnished dial reflects this high degree of water resistance, and in keeping with the color scheme, Omega has filled the rhodium-plated hands, recessed hour markers, and open numerals with a unique light blue Super-LumiNova.
