If you are looking for a classy Titanium watch under 5 lakh Rupees or 7600 USD, this should be among your top 3 options. Omega Seamaster 300 series watch in Titanium is the right mix of colour, alloy & calibre.
For most buyers, the look and feel of a watch on wrist, matters most. Lets begin with why the Titanium Omega Coaxial Seamaster will gel with nearly any attire (including a diver suit). Built in grade 5 Titanium, Omega chose to add a darker and more stately shade of blue for ceramic bezel and dial. Blue is the most suited colour for steely watches. It isn’t easy to get this colour combination right without looking like another titanium/steel watch clone. Titanium Omega coaxial Seamaster watch’s dial is much subdued yet looks dashing.
Dial size is perfect for most mens’ wrists; 41mm with slightly extended lugs. Sand blasted dial with vintage hour markers filled with Super Luminova illuminators. Blue emission for hours and seconds. Bracelet is the one we all love, polished, brushed patented screw and pin bracelet. You will notice in the pictures, above, how Omega has also reinvented the bracelet clasp. It’s a newly patented extendable foldover clasp that allows a small adjustment easily, anytime, if ever you are wearing a thick sleeve or a diver suit, or want to loosen watch’s grip on a hot day.
On the inside, Omega has clubbed the best in house technology there is, in Seamaster titanium Omega coaxial watch. What do these words really mean in Omega watch names ‘master’, ‘coaxial’. They are innovations that will extend the life of your watch. You can read more about the technology, here.
The Seamaster 300 Titanium Omega coaxial Seamaster watch price is € 6.720 or INR 487500.
