OMEGA channels an impression inspiration as it looks to Mars to develop the Speedmaster X-33 Marstimer watch made in collaboration with the European Space Agency. It keeps track of time on both Earth and Mars and is powered by the brand's 5622 Calibre, which is a thermo-compensated quartz movement.
President of OMEGA Raynald Aeschlimann states, "Anyone interested in space, or even science fiction, is obsessed with Mars. It has generated so much curiosity and so many incredible stories. We have even created a name for its imaginary inhabitants. It’s so close yet so far. We long to walk across its surface. To be here on Earth and able to track its movements, gives the term timepiece a whole new meaning. I’m thrilled with this new addition to the famous Speedmaster family."
