OMEGA has released a new Planet Ocean 600M which pays homage to the OG PO from 2005 which debuted with its distinctive bright orange bezel and strap.
Omega have taken that OG bright orange color and brought it back to life on a new orange ceramic [ZrO2] bezel inlay using a new process for which a patent is pending.
Creating a stark contrast against the orange is a polished white dial also in ceramic [ZrO2].
The 43.50 mm Stainless steel model’s white ceramic dial is with applied Arabic numerals in orange and a date window at the 3 o’clock position.
The orange ceramic unidirectional rotational diver’s bezel includes a dive-time scale filled with liquid ceramic and SuperLumiNova.
Other features include an alveol screw-down case-back and an integrated Stainless steel bracelet with patented extendable fold-over clasp and diver extension.
The watch is water resistant to 600 meters and has a Helium-Escape Valve.
Powering it is Omega’s Master Chronometer caliber 8900 which can be seen through the transparent Sapphire case-back.
In order to qualify its Master Chronometer status, it has passed 8 rigorous tests set by METAS (The Swiss Federal Institute of Metrology).
In addition to the classic steel link bracelet, the watches are also available on these sexy orange / white / grey striped NATOs.
The new PO 600M is coming this fall. Thoughts? It’s a PO with some nice updates; orange always looks good, perhaps something new for the summer?
