Omega Seamaster Planet Ocean 600M 45.5mm black ceramic on rubber strap

Exploring the dark side of the ocean, OMEGA has evolved its ceramic expertise to produce the Seamaster Planet Ocean “Deep Black”.This remarkable 45.5 mm timepiece is the combination of a GMT model and a diving watch. The addition of red represents the first colour that is no longer visible at a depth of approximately 5 m.
The matt casebody has been crafted from a single block of ceramic, and for the first time, rubber has been blended with ceramic to create a unique unidirectional bezel. This colourful innovation can be seen covering the first 15 minutes, while Liquidmetal completes the rest of the diving scale. Red rubber injections have also been used to colour the OMEGA logo on the crown and helium escape valve symbol.
On the black ceramic dial, a GMT ring has been added, as well as red Arabic numerals, and hands and indexes that are crafted from 18K white gold with a white Super-LumiNova coating.In another first, OMEGA has created an oriented caseback so that the engraved wording sits pleasingly in position. This has been achieved through OMEGA’s new and patented ceramic Naiad Lock.
Other features include an alveol pattern on the screw-in caseback and a black rubber strap with red stitching and an anti-bacterial treatment.The Planet Ocean “Deep Black” is water-resistant to 60 bar and is driven by the OMEGA Master Chronometer calibre 8906. To achieve Master Chronometer status, it has passed the 8 rigorous tests set by METAS (The Swiss Federal Institute of Metrology).
Features
Anti-magnetic
The movement is unaffected by exposure to strong magnetic fields, even those greater than 1.5 tesla (15,000 gauss).
Chronometer
Label given to a watch which has undergone precision tests and received a certificate from an official body.
Date
The day of the month, displayed in a window on a watch dial at the 3 or 6 o’clock position, or within a subdial at 9 o’clock.
GMT and Worldtimer
A watch with an additional 24-hour hand or 24-hour disc. Particularly useful for wearers who wish to track the hours in two time zones.
Helium escape valve
Decompression system which allows helium to escape from inside the watch when the watch is worn for professional use in pressure chambers. (Long-term underwater work, crude oil exploration, etc.)
Master Chronometer Certified
Guaranteeing the Swiss industry’s highest standard of precision, performance and magnetic-resistance, as set by the Swiss Federal Institute of Metrology.
Screw-in crown
Self-locking crown, screwed into the tube of the case, used for highly water resistant divers’ watches.
Time zone function
Allows the hour hand to be easily adjusted to different time zones without stopping the watch.
Transparent caseback
A transparent caseback – frequently made of sapphire – makes it possible to see the movement inside the watch.
Unidirectional rotating bezel
A bezel which turns in only one direction. Particularly useful for divers who cannot accidentally rotate it in the wrong direction, which could cause them to miscalculate their dive times. A rotating bezel makes it easy to measure elapsed time.
