The Seamaster Chronicles - Part 2, How the Omega Seamaster Became an Icon?
Вставка
- Опубліковано 5 сер 2024
- In a series of 3 videos, The Seamaster Chronicles, we will explain how a watch that sprouted from the watches that Omega delivered to the Royal Air Force during WWII, has become so much more.
The very first Seamaster was introduced by Omega 70 years ago, in 1948. It has grown to become a large collection, where you can find not one iconic watch but a host of iconic pieces - with elegant dress watches from the 1960s to big and rugged professional dive watches.
This year, in 2018, Omega celebrates the 70th anniversary of the Seamaster and the 25th anniversary of the Seamaster Diver 300M, a.k.a the James Bond 007 Watch.
In this second part of the Seamaster Chronicles, MONOCHROME will be talking to Omega's President and CEO Raynald Aeschlimann and Auctioneer Thomas Perazzi of Phillips about how the Seamaster became an icon and how Omega managed to maintain this status.

@@phmwu7368 No he was a real man: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Bond_(ornithologist)
@@algorithm007ify wearing a #Rolex ;-D
@@phmwu7368 not likely..he was probably wearing something else...something quirky...maybe a vintage IWC. He is an ornithologist.
I have omega and rolex. I love the seamaster 300, PO, PLO P. However, reduce your limited editions, few are great not too meny. It devalues the core models and make changes to core models more subtle
Great history. I bought a 42m blue seamaster 300 add it to my Rolex Submariner ceramic and panerai pam 005.
Wear them in good health!
Omega's inhouse movements put Rolex to shame!
Great interview but the sound for the title slides is really jarring.
Made better than Rolex no questions. Rolex is better at making it harder to get their watches. Rolex has a better marketing strategy, Omega has a better watch
cool watch
got the black dial with sedna gold rubberstrap 1 week ago at Omega store. my first luxury watch and wow its an Ultra watch.
Congrats on the buy!
Happy for you. Me too. Cannot stop giggling.
Please put out a 38mm Master Chronometer 300M.
Jean Claude Biver was the man who helped shape the modern Omega company. Nobody since has done much......... Perhaps the Co-Axial escapement is cheap to manufacture in the numbers Omega does annually.
"Rubbishness and elegance"? What the hell does that mean? 7:10
RickP2012 he actually says “robustness and elegance” but with a Swiss accent
I bought an Omega Seamaster automatic chronograph (ref 25012100) in 1999 and the next year the clasp pin failed, the clasp came apart and the watch came off. Luckily I found the watch after swimming around the bottom of the reef. I had the pin replaced in the clasp and again, in less than a year, the clasp pin failed . This is a real design flaw, either the material is inferior or inappropriate or the pin is too slender. I have not used the watch since . Has Omega remedied this flaw? That is not a very iconic feature in an expensive watch, and i would not consider purchasing another omega product. it was costly to repair and Omega seemed cavalier about my problem. Think carefully before you purchase one- either get a better bracelet or don't use it if you are in a boat or a dive where it could sink to the bottom of the ocean never to be found by you again. Omega did not care about the problem.
That was 24 years ago you twit. Times and technology have changed. 🤦🏻
