Omega Planet Ocean Chronograph: If the Rolex Deepsea and Omega Speedmaster Had a Baby

The Omega Seamaster Planet Ocean is a serious dive watch for seriously large wrists. And the Planet Ocean Chronograph is larger still. Is this watch as close as the world will ever get to a Rolex Deepsea Chronograph? Tim Mosso reviews this Omega and a host of preowned luxury watches today on “Wake Up with Watches!” Omega Seamaster dive watches have been an industry point of reference since the first CK2913 Seamaster 300 of 1957. The Omega Planet Ocean collection arrived in 2005, and today’s Planet Ocean Chronograph is from the latest batch of Omega models. At 45.5mm in stainless steel, this Planet Ocean isn’t for the slight of wrist or the bashful. But if you have the arm size for this chronograph, it’s hard to find a better option at this or even higher prices. Stainless steel may be the material of choice for this Planet Ocean 600M, but the bezel insert pops in exuberant orange ceramic. That unidirectional diving bezel is fully lumed, and it encircles a matte grey dial of solid titanium. Omega includes a steel bracelet with a dive clasp, and that clasp includes two different sizing systems. The first sizing option is a push-button slider that permits minor tailoring of fit. The second option is a classic fold-out dive extension for use over a diving suit. Diving is enabled by case water resistance of 600 meters with a helium gas escape valve for saturation divers Omega Master Chronometer caliber 9900 provides the beating heart of this diving watch. With automatic winding and 60 hours of power reserve, reliability is assured. The METAS chronometer certification further assures a high standard of chronometry, anti-magnetism, shock resistance, power reserve, winding efficiency, and water resistance. A vertical clutch and column wheel mechanism control the chronograph. Each caliber 9900 includes a special feature that permits independent movement of the hour hand for owners who travel frequently. Omega’s antimagnetic escapement and Si14 silicon hairspring protect the movement from magnetic fields of over 15,000 gauss. • A Lange & Sohne Cabaret 107.031 rose gold, black dial $25,950 • A Lange & Sohne 1815 Tourbillon 730.032F rose gold, silver dial $89,950 • Audemars Piguet Code 1159 Flyback Chronograph 26393CR.OO.A009CR.01 $39,950 o white gold and rose gold o Silver sunburst dial with lacquer • De Bethune DB27 Titan Hawk V1 DB27S8 black dial, titanium case, date $109,950 • Glashutte Original Karree Perpetual Calendar 39-51-14-02-04 stainless steel $10,950 • Greubel Forsey Balancier Contemporain Red Gold $179,950 o Power reserve indicator, 39.6mm case • Greubel Forsey Double Tourbillon 30 Degrees white gold $269,500 • Greubel Forsey Convexe Balancier S2 Light Grey dial o Email tmosso@thewatchbox.com for pricing • Omega Seamaste Planet Ocean 600M Chronograph 215.30.46.51.99.001 $6,950 o Titanium dial, orange bezel • Roger Dubuis Sympathie 37 Bi-Retrograde Perpetual Calendar S37.5772.0 $54,950 o Black dial, white gold case, moonphase, 28 pieces • Rolex Oyster Perpetual GMT Master II 126720VTNR Jubilee bracelet • Rolex Cellini Prince 5442/5 rose gold $12,950 • Vacheron Constantin Overseas Self Winding 4500V/110A-B483 black dial o Not yet priced: email tmosso@thewatchbox.com for a quote • Vacheron Constantin Tradionnelle Chronograph 47192/000R-9352 rose gold $42,950
