BREITLING ENDURANCE PRO IRONMAN WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP 2025 EDITION

OMEGA SEAMASTER AQUA TERRA TURQUOISE

It’s the final stretch of summer, and Omega is racing to the finish line with the Seamaster Aqua Terra Turquoise. Preserving elements crucial to the collection—wave-edged caseback, screw in crown, domed sapphire crystal—the latest iteration stuns with its ceramic bezel and integrated rubber strap. The head-turning feature here, however, is the turquoise varnish watch face. Imbued with a black gradient effect, the lacquered and polished dial evokes the depth of the sea. The turquoise stitching over the black strap advances this narrative.
