Introducing the Omega Seamaster Planet Ocean 36th America’s Cup 43.5 mm Ceramic Watch Replica

The America’s Cup sailing competition is the oldest sporting event in the world. Its history can be traced back to 1851. It has now become the source of fierce international competitions and spectacular sailing duels. With the approach of the 36th America’s Cup sailing competition, Swiss watchmaker OMEGA announced that it will be the official timekeeper of the event. They’ve got a limited-edition watch to mark the occasion. The new Omega Seamaster Planet Ocean 36th America’s Cup Limited-Edition watch replica 215.32.43.21.04.001 is quite an attractive take on the PO with a red, white, and blue color scheme and some design touches that are unique to this LE.

America’s Cup Limited Edition Replica

While there have been plenty of Planet Ocean limited editions (Olympics and Michael Phelps come to mind),  it’s the first for the America’s Cup, which has had two chronographs in the past. They were idiosyncratic ones at that, with the Speedmaster X-33 Regatta ETNZ and a Seamaster Diver 300M piece. The Omega Planet Ocean 36th America’s Cup LE watch fake will be limited to 2,021 pieces. Although I am not particularly a fan of the Planet Ocean replica collection myself, I do like the color scheme on this new model. The watch, Planet Ocean 36th America’s Cup Limited Edition ref. 215.32.43.21.04.001 replica, has a steel case with a diameter of 43.5mm. For me, that’s the perfect size of the Planet Ocean. It also comes on a very comfortable blue rubber strap with details in matching colors.

Since 1995

The America’s Cup dates back to 1851. It is a match race, like boxing, one against one, but then sailing. The remarkable contest is notorious for its rules: the winner (the ‘Defender’) decides the venue for the next edition, three years later, plus most of the rules of engagement. So, the winner has a clear advantage at the start. The combination of state-of-the-art boats, the harsh conditions, and the visible wear on the men all add to the attraction of this great event. Omega has been involved in the America’s Cup since 1995.
Raynald Aeschlimann, President & CEO of Omega SA once said: “The America’s Cup is like the Olympic Games or great golf tournaments: it doesn’t come around every week or every day. It is THE event. There is a lot to do about it, people talk about it, media report on it. There is nothing like it. To me, it is like the moon”.

Ceramic Countdown

The 2021 America’s Cup will be the 36th edition of the prestigious race, and the third one for which Omega has served as timekeeper; Omega succeeds Panerai, the watch brand that timed the 35th America’s Cup in 2017. The timepiece that Omega has unveiled to commemorate the partnership hails from the Omega Seamaster Planet Ocean watch fake collection, housed in sporty 43.5-mm steel case with a unidirectional rotating divers’ bezel — on this model, notable for its use of a blue ceramic ring and white-and-red liquid ceramic sector for the first five minutes of the scale, corresponding to the countdown to a regatta’s start. As you can see, there’s a 5-minute countdown. Five minutes before the race starts, there’s a horn that blows the countdown signal. From that moment, there are only five minutes left before the start shot will sound. The skipper must make sure that he does not cross the starting line before this shot. With the tough and sometimes barely controllable forces of natures, the lining up of the sailing ship isn’t an easy task.

Colorful Dial

The colors of new Omega Seamaster Planet Ocean 43.5 mm watch replica are to my liking! Red, white and blue. Of course, these also match the logo of the competition. The polished, white ceramic dial features red and blue details on the hands and hour markers, a date window at 3 o’clock, and two subtle references to the America’s Cup: a transferred logo above the 6 o’clock position and the distinctive shape of the “Auld Mug” trophy used for the seconds hand’s counterweight.

Caliber 8900

Inside the Omega Seamaster Planet Ocean 36th America’s Cup LE watch replica you will find Omega’s caliber 8900. Speaking from my own experience (there’s one in my Globemaster), this movement is very accurate. Of course, it is, because of the Master Chronometer certification. More strict than the regular Chronometer specification (-4/+6) with its average daily deviation between 0 and +5 seconds. This movement also has an independent hour hand, making it an easy travel companion. Omega’s Master Chronometer certified watches are also anti-magnetic up to 15,000 gauss and have a Co-Axial escapement and silicon balance spring. All this also leads to a warranty of 5 years and a longer service interval period. The caliber 8900 is visible through a sapphire case back with a special America’s Cup logo. On the case back you will also find the unique number of your limited edition.
