Omega European Masters Inspires Latest Seamaster Edition

Watches and sport go together like horse and carriage; be it Bremont and sailing, TAG Heuer and Formula One or indeed Omega and golf, it seems that every watchmaker has their chosen sport. Whilst it can be easy to dismiss this connection as being down to sponsorship and awareness alone, there is a lot more to it than that.

Watchmakers have for years made watches that are directly tailored to their chosen sports, watches that are informed by the culmination of knowledge from both watchmaker and sports professionals. This traditions has led to some incredible watches in the past and has even forced watchmakers to seek completely different methods in order to meet the needs of the sport.

The latest in this list of specifically designed watches comes from Omega and is built to commemorate the European Masters which is taking place as we speak.

Omega European Masters

The Maters takes place at the Golf Club Crans-sur-Sierre in Switzerland, which is often described as one of the most scenic golf courses on earth, and sees golf’s top flight battle it out over four days for superiority.

The 71 par course is known for its numerous tricky sand traps as well as incredibly quick fairways and greens and presents a challenge to even the most elite golfer. Legendary names such as Bjørn, Jimenez and Westwood have all claimed the title in Switzerland before, but who will clinch it this year is anyone’s guess.

The OMEGA Seamaster Aqua Terra “Golf”

To commemorate this year’s Masters, Omega have released a new model that is bent very specifically toward the committed golfers out there. Based on the Aqua Terra 150M Omega Master Co-Axial , the watch contains the OMEGA Master Co-Axial calibre 8500 movement that ensures water resistance down to 500 feet. The retention of these key features ensures that this watch is every bit as robust and useable whilst also being endowed with a verdant flair reminiscent of the beautiful greens of Crans-sur-Sierre.

With green numbering at each hour mark as well as a green second hand, the OMEGA Aqua Terra “Golf” is as distinctive as it is attractive. The darkened face of this edition aids with the colour scheme further by contrasting perfectly with the green highlights giving a clear and easily read watch face.

Two options are available for the strap including a steel option that perfectly blends with the 41mm case. The second of the two choices is an exquisite novonappa leather strap in a light brown, the natural patina of this leather matures with use and becomes darker whilst retaining its original suppleness.
