OMEGA Olympic Light: Speedmaster Chronoscope New Gold Edition
With the countdown to the Paris 2024 Olympic Games now less than 100 days away, the moment of global attention is upon us. At this exciting time, OMEGA, with its exceptional craftsmanship and unique design concepts, has launched the new Speedmaster Chronoscope watches for this grand sporting event, including a gleaming gold model that adds to the anticipation.
The two new Speedmaster Chronoscopes, with a diameter of 43 millimetres, feature a perfect blend of stainless steel and moonlight gold. The fine tachymeter scale on the bezel symbolises the speed and passion of time. On the back of the watch, the delicate medallion with the Olympic torch, the five rings and the words "Paris 2024" evokes the sporting event that is about to unfold.
The 9908 calibre, OMEGA's pride and joy, is the hand-wound Master Chronometer calibre found inside these two watches. With a power reserve of up to 60 hours, this calibre ensures precise and long-lasting timekeeping. The centre seconds hand and the stacked hands on the chronograph counters at 3 o'clock work in perfect harmony to record every moment of splendour and glory. The subsidiary seconds hand at 9 o'clock adds a touch of dynamism and vigour to the watch, enhancing its visual appeal.
The silver-white luminescent dial evokes the style of the 1940s, while the black subdials at 3 o'clock and 9 o'clock with their "snail" scales, as well as the tachymeter, pulsometer and telemeter, are designed to showcase OMEGA's attention to detail. The ten beautiful Arabic numerals add a touch of elegance and nobility to the watch.
Both the stainless steel and gold models are available with either a leather strap or a matching bracelet, depending on personal preference. The stainless steel model is priced at $9,500 for the leather strap and $9,800 for the all-stainless steel version. The gold model, which is the most expensive of the three, starts at $32,700. The all-gold version is an unrivalled display of luxury and prestige with a price tag of $51,400.
At this time of great anticipation, let us all look forward to the 2024 Paris Olympics, and let us also look forward to the Speedmaster Chronoscope from OMEGA, which will bring us more beautiful memories and stories about time.
