Do you know? The dial of the Omega Constellation series watch is actually made from slices of meteorites 4.5 billion years ago! This unique material not only gives the watch a unique appearance, but also gives it precious collection value. Want to know the story and technology behind this watch? Then read on!

Equipped with Master Chronometer movement

The Omega Constellation series watch is equipped with the Master Chronometer 8901 self-winding movement. The number of oscillations of this movement is 25,200 times, which means that it can swing 7 times per second. For a mechanical watch, this number is already quite impressive. The movement also has a 60-hour kinetic energy reserve, which is enough for daily wearers. Even if it is not worn on the weekend, time will not stand still when it is taken out on Monday.

The most important part of the watch is of course the dial. The dial material of the Constellation series watch is actually made of meteorite slices. With the Weidmann pattern, the entire dial shows a gray cross pattern. This pattern cannot be found in iron blocks grown on the earth. The reason why such a pattern is formed is because the surface of the meteorite is exposed after it is cut in the universe.

Since the composition of each meteorite is different, the cut-out dial is also unique. In this way, the wearer does not have to worry about bumping the watch with others. This uniqueness also makes this watch highly collectible.

The bezel and strap of this watch are made of Sedna 18K gold, which enhances the sense of luxury while maintaining a low profile. Because at first glance, you don’t think this watch is very ostentatious, but it exudes a sense of nobility in a low-key manner, making the wearer look particularly classy.

Moreover, the color of Sedna gold is very beautiful. This red metal is much prettier than most 18K gold on the market. It sparkles even more in the sun, making people unable to put it down.

Ancient meteorites and modern technology

The dial of this Omega Constellation series watch is polished with Swedish M iron meteorite. This is the first time that an Omega watch has used this meteorite as a dial material. The Muonionalusta meteorite was discovered in 1906 near the Muonio River in Sweden. It is called an iron meteorite because its main component is iron, plus a small amount of nickel.

According to research, this meteorite was formed 4.5 billion years ago and is the oldest meteorite found on earth, which makes it even more precious. Many collectors hope to obtain such a meteorite, because it not only has extremely high scientific research value, but also has good collection value. Unfortunately, although it was discovered as early as 1906, it has not been unearthed on a large scale until now. This may be a reflection of its rarity.

We know that the universe is a vacuum environment, where air and other substances almost do not exist, so there will be no obvious weather changes like the earth. On Earth, iron blocks will rust if left in a humid environment for a long time, but iron blocks in the universe can remain unchanged almost forever.

This is also the first time that humans have seen such meteorites. Their surfaces are smooth, without any flaws, and no traces of rust can be seen. Through modern technology, we also know that these iron meteorites have their own place in the universe. They belong to the asteroid belt. In some astronomical data, we can also find the tracks of their existence.

Conclusion

This Omega Constellation series watch is not just an ordinary watch. It combines ancient cosmic elements and modern craftsmanship. It is really the perfect combination of luxury and uniqueness. I personally think that such a watch is definitely worth owning! What do you think? Come to the comment area to chat about your opinions, or give me a like!
