An ideal annual calendar for mass production machines

Omega has added three types of new models to the "Globe Master Annual Calendar" equipped with an annual calendar. The Globemaster is a collection announced in 2015, and is a series that can be said to be a modern version of the high-precision model "Constellation" that appeared in 1952. This is OMEGA's first model that has received master chronometer certification, which gives only watches that meet multiple standards such as an ultra-high magnetic resistance of 15,000 gauss and a daily difference of 0 to +5 seconds / day. Designs reminiscent of the 1952 constellation, such as the dodecagonal "pie-pan" dial, the star mark, and the Geneva Observatory medallion, are scattered throughout. This time, Omega has added a new color to the Globemaster model with an annual calendar. The annual calendar is a high-performance calendar that automatically distinguishes and adjusts the large and small months except February, and unless the clock is stopped, the calendar is adjusted once a year and only on March 1st. Is required. In particular, OMEGA's annual calendar is based on the so-called "gear type", which distinguishes the size of the month and feeds the day using only gears. It features a unique method that replaces the male star gear, which tends to be complicated in design, with a compact lever. A gear type that is strong against disturbance but costly, and a "lever type" that can switch each calendar display even with a small amount of torque because it is weak against impact and can utilize the principle of leverage. It is an ideal annual calendar for mass production machines.

Added to the Globemaster Annual Calendar are a model that combines a green dial and SS case, a model that uses 18K Sedna Gold for the dial and case, and a model that combines a burgundy dial with a combination case of SS and 18K Sedna Gold. There are 3 types. All of them are lacquered to obtain vivid and deep colors, but the delicate sunray finish shows up exactly depending on the angle. As expected it is Omega. There are two types of movements to be installed, "Cal.8922" and "Cal.8923". The "Cal.8922" will be installed on the burgundy combination model and SS green, and the 18K Sedna Gold model will use the "Cal.8923". The movement is basically the same, but the "Cal.8923" is a special specification made of 18K Sedna Gold up to the self-winding rotor. "Globe Master Annual Calendar" that puts an annual calendar on a high-performance movement certified by a master chronometer. With just this content, the green dial of the SS case costs less than 1 million yen. This is a bargain price.
