One of the reasons watches are so inextricably linked to the motorsport industry is the need for high-precision timing on the track. Manufacturers such as Rolex and Omega continue to maintain their long-term commitment to provide the racing world with reliable precision watches that record laps and other important track data. 
Watch connoisseurs who collect racing watches are still in the market for a timepiece that delivers the same performance whether worn for driving purposes or not. After motoring fans and actor, Paul Newman sported the replica Rolex Cosmograph Daytona upon his wrist, because it gained an almost cult-like status, spawning a dedicated fan base of motor-sport enthusiasts, businessmen, and style-conscious individuals alike.
The history of the racing watch also consists of the pivotal role Omega played with the launch of their well-knownSpeedmaster. Before the Omega Speedmaster became the first watch worn on the surface of the moon, forever cementing its role in space and aviation industries, it was a racing chronograph developed for professional race car drivers to use at the track.
Adding leverage to the company’s position as the official timekeeper for the Olympic Games, the first Speedmaster was created in 1957 as a racing and sports chronograph with a visually impressive and easy to read dial. The original fake Omega Speedmaster, the CK2915 was created by Claude Baillod and featured a tri-complex chronograph layout with high-contrast index markers. Moreover, it made the pioneering determination to have its tachymeter scale moved to its bezel instead of printed on its dial for increased legibility.
Although the choices range from conservative to extremely bold, and a large number of racing watch straps are now available, all luxury racing watches are bundled by the same core values for their indivisible precision driving and technical excellence.

The Speedmaster, which we called Moonwatch, is a miracle. It’s one of the most famous and historically meaningful models in the replica OMEGA family of replica watches. Decades ago, the brand has created different iterations of the model. This consists of the Speedmaster Professional line and the Speedmaster Reduced. Even though the Speedmaster Reduced is not in production any more, it still remains famous among collectors and fans of the brand. If you’re wondering just what makes the Reduced set apart from other variations of the Speedmaster, now let’s go ahead for more information.
The differences between the Speedmaster Reduced, the original Speedmaster Moonwatch, and other variations of the Speedmaster are subtle. You might not even notice at the first glance. That’s why it’s significant to understand exactly what makes the Speedmaster Reduced special and what to look for.
The most obvious characteristic that distinguish the Speedmaster Reduced from the other Speedmaster variations are in its design. One trait that characterizes the Speedmaster Reduced is the size. It’s smaller than your average Speedmaster, measuring only 38mm. Another meaningful difference is the dial layout. To begin with, the subdials on the Speedmaster Reduced are further apart. They are positioned closer to the outer edge than the center point. On most other Speedmaster variations, the opposite is true—the subdials are closer to the center.
What’s more, the Speedmaster Reduced features the minutes in Arabic numerals every five seconds, except at fifteen, thirty, and forty-five. On the contrary, most other Speedmaster models only feature stick markings. Eventually, the Reduced version has the word “Automatic” on its dial. This showed us the other major difference between the Reduced version and other models.
It’s obvious that there are plenty of aesthetic differences between the Speedmaster Reduced and other Speedmaster models. However, the most important difference is in the movement. The Speedmaster Reduced houses an automatic movement based on the ETA 2890-A2, also popular as Omega’s Caliber 3220. On the other hand, most other Speedmaster models come equipped with a manual movement. This consists of a Caliber 321, 861, 863, 1861, or 1863, depending on the exact variation of the model.
Although the Reduced version is out of production now, it’s still a popular replica watch for fans of the brand. It’s also a great option to the typical Speedmaster. If you love an automatic movement or a more modestly sized timepiece, this is the amazing model for you. But, if you’re looking for a more traditional iteration of the typical Moonwatch, just be sure to use these visual cues and specifications as a guide to make sure you get the exact timepiece you desire.

Made by 316l stainless steel, the new replica omega constellation is perhaps more classical, at least in the modern sense. the name of constellation has been part of the omega family since 1950s, it was in 1982 that the constellation took its modern form with the constellation manhattan.
the new and hot omega constellation shown the iconic “case claws” and single piece tapering bracelet that remains part of the design today; and other distinct feature is the ring of roman numeral hour markers on the bezel. while the steel omega constellation co-axial Day-Date has the look of modern constellation replica watches, the 18k sedna gold model has a dial inspired by an earlier, pre-manhattan era omega constellation model. 
the inexpensive omega constellation with a maximum 38mm diameter sedna gold watch is a unique and interesting timepiece that connects a range of omega historical points. it combines new and old in a uniquely fashionable way. attached to the case is matching, tapered brown alligator strap. ask yourself, do you get the full constellation experience with the cheap watch on a strap versus a full bracelet?
in contrast to the less common limited edition sedna gold constellation is the steel constellation co-axial Day-Date. this is very similar to the 8500 but adds a day of the week indicator with a window at 12 o’clock. this is omega’s answer to rolex’s day-date movement in the rolex president models. the movement is pretty nice, and in addition to having a co-axial escapement and silicon balance spring, the two barrels offer 35 hours of power reserve. furthermore, the day and date indicator windows jump instantly at midnight. almost exactly the same watch as this is also available without the day of the week complication, if you aren’t interested in that option. i simply wanted to check it out as most people don’t think of omega as having a day/date dress watch. 
with 50 meters of water resistance and a pretty thick case, the affordable constellation is not a typical dress watch, nor a sport replica watch, the specs on these timepieces mean that they are meant to be worn regularly. calling it a dress watch isn’t really fair, either, as it is more strictly a “dress/sport hybrid” watch. legibility is pretty good, and while the design is more subdued and retro, it’s surely a cool look.

The watch we are going to talk about has a descriptive product name here, which is a Planet Ocean that is actually very huge and in deep blue. Besides, it is indeed rather expensive.
The key point to clarify about the Replica Omega Seamaster Planet Ocean Big Blue Ceramic GMT is a certain dissonance between the appearance showing in the picture and real one in your eyes – you are required to lift it off the watch tray to see for yourself what I’m going to talk. Because blue, especially such a saturated, deep blue, we scarcely see quality, durable materials take on, when seeing it in images alone I found myself prone to associating it with a plasticky look and “feel” – although you really can’t make that conclusion from images alone.
It is normal to get the news that the technology was coming from Swatch Group sister-brand and ceramic expert Rado, whose HyperChrome ceramic from about five years ago did away with the steel core duo to its mold-injection ceramic-manufacturing technology. Not a broadly advertised connection, this one, but it would only make sense for Omega to harness the group’s technology and that, fortunately, is actually what happened.
Both Rado’s HyperChrome and Omega’s ceramic manufacturing process starts with a mold into which “a special zirconium-based powder” is injected. That light blue, large piece you see wrapped in glass in the top left corner of the image above is how the case looks at that stage. It is quite reasonably in the case’s finalized shape, already incorporating all openings for the bracelet, side inserts, also for the crown and pushers (on applicable case designs).
Therefore, it has shrunk seriously to the size you see in the lower left corner of the image above. You should know how deep blue it has become by the end of this process, indicating that the material itself is colored in its whole depth. It is here where we should keep in mind that colored ceramic is completely rare in watch-making.
As a whole, what’s really super impressive is how Omega can finish ceramic which is about five times harder than steel, coming in at around 1,200 Hv on the Vickers scale against 316L. What you see above is the final case on the left before finishing touches and, on the right, the finished product ready to be assembled.

When one of the major trends of basel 2017 is an upgrade as a more wrist-friendly dive watches, there’s no doubt that big and bold is still the name of the game. replica omega’s latest po, the “big blue”, delivers on both fronts, thanks to its huge 45.5mm wide by 17.8mm high case made from bright blue ceramic. why big blue? well, apart from the obvious point, you will find that it’s a piece of homage to a super funky (and super collectable) omega diver’s chronograph from the ’70s.
this big blue continues from release of the fully ceramic “deep black” of last year, itself an evolution of successful ceramic speedmasters, notably the dsotm. from all this activity we can deduce that omega is increasingly serious about integrating ceramic in a big way, well beyond bezels, movement components and the odd limited edition. so what is the reason? if you’ve got the technical know-how and production capacity, you might use it as well. the case and dial of the big blue are made from pigmented zirconium oxide powder that’s sintered into an ultra-hard ceramic, then machined with diamond tools and plasma-treated to its final shape
beside of the impressive case that the watch has, the calibre 8906, with gmt complication, meets omega’s master chronometer standards, some of the most stringent in the industry. so it has what it takes inside and out, but what’s this watch like on the wrist? well, it’s not one for the faint of heart. this is not a stealthy blue, and the orange elements remove any possibility of this watch flying under the radar. if the fearless use of color hasn’t sent you running for the hills, i suspect you’ll love this newest replica watches. the orange accents are amazing, especially the piping on the woven-look rubber strap. if you’re after a watch to start a conversation, big blue is one fit best.
