Omega has launched a remarkable timepiece to mark the 37th America’s Cup—the Seamaster Regatta, priced at £7000. With a substantial 46.75 mm case crafted from grade 5 titanium, the Seamaster Regatta is designed as an instrument watch for professionals, featuring both analogue and digital displays. This highly functional timepiece is fully equipped to handle the demands of life at sea, offering a suite of features that elevate it beyond the typical dive watch.
The Seamaster Regatta’s many invaluable tools include a moonphase indicator, a chronograph, a sailing logbook, a temperature gauge, an accelerometer, and three alarms—all of which provide essential information for sailors. Most importantly, the watch includes a specialized regatta race function, making it an indispensable tool for competitive sailors. The combination of analogue and digital elements ensures that the watch offers the versatility required by professional and recreational seafarers alike.
The watch’s dial features an LCD display with black markings on a white-grey background, which shows the multiple digital readings. The hour, minute, and central seconds hands are inspired by the Diver 300M collection and can be cleared from the display when in backlit mode to increase the legibility of the digital readouts. Encircling the unique dial is a minute track with integrated hour markers, adding to the watch’s nautical aesthetic.
To navigate through the watch’s numerous functions, Omega has incorporated four pushers—one in red and three in blue—all of which are cast in rubber to enhance grip and ease of use at sea. Additionally, the sandblasted crown features a laser-engraved Omega logo and can be operated with push-and-turn actions for added functionality. The blue polished ceramic bezel ring complements the pushers and dial, adding a cohesive and refined appearance to the watch.
The caseback of the Seamaster Regatta is designed with a wave pattern, incorporating the principles of “Helmholtz resonance.” This resonating cavity helps increase the volume of the alarms, which serve multiple functions for the wearer. The raised caseback is embossed with the distinctive 37th America’s Cup logo and engraved with the words “SEAMASTER REGATTA” and “37th AMERICA’S CUP.” The caseback also features the name of the watch’s brand-new multifunctional quartz movement: Omega’s CALIBRE 5701.
Presented on an integrated blue rubber strap with Omega’s patented Quick-Change system, the Seamaster Regatta is both practical and comfortable. The watch is delivered in a commemorative blue box with red stitching, adding a celebratory touch to this exceptional piece. Grade 5 titanium, known for its light weight, corrosion resistance, and durability, makes this watch ideal for extreme environments, perfectly balancing solidity and workability. The bright grey colour of the titanium case suits both brushed and polished finishes, giving the Seamaster Regatta a sleek and professional look.
Omega’s America’s Cup Seamaster Regatta is the ultimate instrument for professionals who demand precision, durability, and performance. Whether competing in a regatta or simply enjoying the open ocean, this watch is a tribute to the enduring spirit of adventure and the pursuit of excellence.
