Dedicated to
the Rio 2016 Olympic Games
With the spirit of the Olympic Games
lighting up the celebrations in Rio de Janeiro, OMEGA, the Official
Timekeeper since 1932, is maintaining its tradition this year too. As the
world's greatest athletes prepare for the Rio 2016 Olympic Games, OMEGA has
already set the winning standard in watchmaking. To celebrate the excitement
and anticipation of this global event, it has taken sports timekeeping to
another level by announcing the launch of the “Seamaster Diver 300M “Rio
2016” limited to 3016 units.
The limited edition watch is inspired by the Copacabana waves. The wave
pattern has been taken from the mosaic design on Copacabana’s sidewalks and
used as an inspiration for a similar style on the watch’s striking lacquered
black dial.
The upgraded and enhanced Seamaster Diver 300M “Rio 2016” features a
uni-directional rotating diving bezel that is made from black polished ceramic.
What sets this watch apart from its previous models, are the lacquered numbers
in red, green, yellow and blue, which represent the exuberance of Rio as well
as the five colours of the famous Olympic rings. Other features of
this timepiece are typical of the iconic OMEGASeamaster 300M style. These
include a date window at 3 o’clock, a helium escape valve at 10
o’clock, and polished facetted skeleton rhodium-plated hands coated in white
Super-LumiNova. Presented on a stainless steel bracelet, the timepiece is
driven by the exclusive OMEGA calibre 2500 and is water resistant up
to 30 bar (300 metres / 1000 feet). The
screw-in caseback has been embossed with the “Rio 2016” logo and
engraved with an individual Limited Edition number on the
reverse side of the polished and brushed stainless steel case.
The Seamaster Diver 300M "Rio 2016" Limited Edition is
priced at INR 268,100.
