Description

To celebrate the sailing partnership between OMEGA and ALINGHI, the legendary Speedmaster Dark Side of the Moon has been given this truly innovative design.

The 44.25 mm model is crafted in black ceramic, with an ALINGHI logo in red varnish on the stop/start pusher. The tachymeter scale is in Super-LumiNova, while the perforated black rubber strap includes a red rubber interior.

Through the skeletonised dial, the Calibre 1865 has been laser-ablated with a honeycomb effect on the mainplate and barrel bridge, as well as a black carbon pattern on all other bridges. These effects are inspired by the hull of the ALINGHI TF35 catamaran.

A 4-minute and 5-minute countdown function features in red on the 3 o’clock subdial, while the traditional hand of the 6 o’clock subdial has been replaced by a sandblasted and anodized aluminium disc, which rotates with the ALINGHI logo transferred in red.

Ceramic

OMEGA has unrivalled expertise in the use of ceramics, dating back more than 10 years. Taking its origin from the Greek word "keramos", ceramic is an inorganic, non-metallic substance obtained by firing at high temperatures. It allows the creation of completely dense watch parts with exceptional mechanical properties. Ceramic is one of the most popular choices for customers when selecting their timepiece, thanks to its appealing colour range and specific properties, such as it being two times lighter than stainless steel, hardwearing, highly scratch-resistant, chemically inert, hypoallergenic, environmentally friendly and non-magnetic.

Sapphire Crystal

To really appreciate the finer details of a timepiece, OMEGA uses synthetic sapphire crystal with a highly scratch-resistant and anti-reflective treatment. Before the machining and finishing processes take place, the sapphire crystals are produced under the Verneuil process, also called flame fusion. It involves the melting of the raw substance using oxyhydrogen flame and the crystallisation of the melted droplets to form a cylinder. Graded 9 on the Mohs-hardness scale (graded 1-10), the resulting sapphire crystals are virtually scratch-proof and very hard, ensuring an unhindered vision at all times.
