As the Omega family returns to the original styling of its core lines, including the Speedmaster, Seamaster and Railmaster, this new chronograph evokes the original 1950’s models with its classic curved horns and round polished push-buttons. Add to this a column wheel chronograph with vertical coupling function, a Co-Axial escapement and a COSC certification as a chronometer.
By allowing one watch to record two or more events, the Rattrapante (or split-seconds) that was introduced in 1930, helped eliminate discrepancies between two chronographs in sports timing. Likewise, the column wheel introduced in 1898 into a pocket watch, allows precision start, stop and reset functions of the multiple hands of the chronograph. Sports enthusiasts today can time laps or two events without resorting to a second timekeeper while the tachymeter scale allows average speeds to be calculated over a set distance. Furthermore the red Pulsometer scale on the dial serves to take pulse readings.
Movement is the automatic Omega caliber 3612. The Co-Axial escapement, technology that is exclusive to Omega, represents one of the most important advances in watchmaking over the last 250 years and is now being introduced into the Speedmaster range. The Co-Axial escapement considerably reduces friction in the heart of the watch mechanism and offers improved long-term reliability and accuracy. Performance is further improved by a free-sprung balance that allows for more precise adjustments of the watch. The watch has a 52-hour power-reserve and the white rhodium-plated movement is finished to luxury standards with special waves, circular-graining and gold plated engraving. The screws and the column-wheel components are made of blued-steel and the movement is visible behind the sapphire crystal case back.
The case measures 44.2mm and is water resistant to 100 meters. It has double AR coated sapphire crystals. A third push-button at 10 o’clock activates the split second function.
The Speedmaster Rattrapante Co-Axial is available on either a satin finished stainless steel bracelet with a safety clasp or on a brown over stitched calfskin strap with a fold over stainless steel clasp.
