The History of the Blues
In the early days of art antiquity before the Renaissance, the only way to achieve the aquamarine blue color that has been infused into this watch was through the painstaking mining and processing of Lapis azurite, a sort of oxidized copper found only in a few places on Earth. This substance was prized for its one of a kind, impossible to replicate, blue color. The casual observer of this beautiful watch might not know the history belonging to the kind of blue used for the polished ceramic face. To them, the first thing they notice is how well the gold case casts a liquid dimension and depth to the blue foreground. But one educated in the history of arts must imagine the creator of this piece was familiar with the great works of art from Antiquity and on into the Renaissance where this shade of blue was carefully used. For it was then where art historians first noted the use and significance of this particular blue. Perhaps that knowledge inspired the choice of blue used on the Omega Seamaster Diver 300 in the 42mm 18K Sedna™ gold case.
The Omega Seamaster Diver 300 Master Chronometer in the 42mm 18K Sedna™ gold case comes with the blue face and has sapphire crystal lenses on both the face and the face-back. This allows its possessor to witness the intricate clockwork mechanisms that sets the Seamasters apart from lesser timepieces. This feature is called an exhibition case back and is highly sought after by fine timepiece collectors. It provides an intimate opening into conversations if and when the wearer of the watch chooses to engage with the casual passerby and other admirers.
The case width is labeled at 42mm but it is important to remember these watches are each made by hand; and while the cases are all made to a standard size, it's often rounded up a few subfractions to the next millimeter and might not be exactly 42mm. This is the knowledge that collectors use to discern between replicas and authentic Omega manufactured Seamasters.
Omega isn't the only luxury watch manufacturer who has turned to sapphire for their lenses. This choice is due to the durability and clarity and natural scratch resistance belonging to this type of crystal. Both the front lens and rear exhibition lens are carefully crafted from authentic superheated and formed sapphire crystals.
The blue used for the face and rubber bracelet is rooted deep in art history. The combination of this particular blue and gold can be found in the Sistine chapel as well as ancient art predating the Renaissance. Traces of the Lapis azurite have been found in artwork dating back to Mesopotamia. Omega has utilized modern methods to provide a much more durable ceramic coating. Just like a well rebuilt classic car, it is true to the blue and all other aesthetic features that this watch is inspired by: timeless and classic, but all in all, this is a truly modern watch with none of the functional setbacks found in an actual antique.
