Omega Seamaster Automatic Chronometer Black Dial Men’s Watch

Product Overview

The OMEGA Seamaster Automatic Chronometer Black Dial Men’s Watch (Model: 210.22.42.20.01.001) is a precision Swiss-made diving timepiece engineered for serious underwater exploration and everyday sophistication. Built with a robust stainless steel case and a sleek black rubber strap, this watch combines durability with comfort for active wear. At its core lies the certified Master Chronometer movement, ensuring exceptional accuracy and resistance to magnetic fields up to 15,000 gauss. Designed for professional divers and watch enthusiasts alike, it delivers reliable performance in extreme conditions while maintaining a refined aesthetic suitable for formal and casual settings. The unidirectional rotating bezel and luminescent markers provide essential safety features for underwater timing.

Key Features

• Master Chronometer Caliber 8800: This self-winding automatic movement is certified by METAS for superior precision, stability, and anti-magnetic performance. It operates at 25,200 vibrations per hour and delivers a 55-hour power reserve, ensuring consistent timekeeping even during extended use.
• Anti-Magnetic Technology: Engineered to withstand magnetic fields greater than 15,000 gauss, the movement protects accuracy in environments where traditional watches would falter, such as near electronic equipment or medical devices.
• Unidirectional Rotating Bezel: The black ceramic bezel features an 18k yellow gold diving scale and rotates in one direction only, allowing divers to safely track elapsed time underwater. The ceramic construction resists scratches and fading over time.
• High-Visibility Luminescence: The black ceramic dial is adorned with a laser-engraved wave pattern and features white Super-LumiNova filled hour markers and skeleton hands made from 18k yellow gold. This ensures clear legibility in low-light or underwater conditions.
• Helium Escape Valve: Located at the 10 o’clock position, this conical valve allows helium to escape during decompression in saturation diving, preventing damage to the crystal during resurfacing.
• Sapphire Crystal Protection: The domed sapphire crystal is scratch-resistant and treated with anti-reflective coating on both sides, enhancing clarity and durability in harsh environments.
• 300-Meter Water Resistance: Designed for professional diving, the watch is tested to withstand depths of up to 300 meters (1000 feet), making it suitable for recreational and professional underwater activities.
• Sapphire Exhibition Case Back: The transparent rear crystal showcases the intricate movement, offering a view of the finely finished mechanics and OMEGA’s craftsmanship.

Important Notes

Please refer to the manufacturer’s website for detailed warranty information. The watch comes in its original packaging and is part of OMEGA’s certified Master Chronometer collection, requiring periodic servicing to maintain performance and water resistance. Avoid exposing the watch to strong magnetic fields unnecessarily, and ensure the crown is fully screwed down before water exposure. Regular maintenance by an authorized service center is recommended to preserve functionality and longevity.
