Hands-On with the High Quality Omega Replica Watches Globemaster Master Co-Axial

The looks of the Globemaster are familiar to those who understand vintage High Quality Omega Replica Watches, but it’s not quite a vintage remake. Instead it’s a blend of elements of from various Omega Constellation models from the 1950s to 1960s. The name itself was once applied to early Constellation watches in the 1950s.

Similarly, the pie pan dial, named after its shallowly domed, facetted shape, is taken from early Constellations, as is the inlaid star at six o’clock.And on the back the relief medallion featuring an observatory has been the trademark of the Constellation line since its inception. It’s a reference to the observatory timing contests Omega Replica Watches Swiss Movement took part in, back when such things still existed; they were terminated once Japanese watches started winning and the quartz crisis erupted.

Inside the steel Globemaster watches is the Chinese Omega Replica Watches Quality Master Co-Axial calibre 8900, while the gold versions are equipped with the calibre 8901. These movements are the first with the METAS certification announced last year, making them Master Chronometers.

Like Omega’s other top of the line movements, the calibres 8900 and 8901 are finished with a spiral Geneva striping Omega calls Cotes Arabesques, with all the screws treated with a black finish. Though all the decoration is obviously mechanically applied, it is attractive and as good as the best in this price range. All of this can be admired through the display back, unlike conventional magnetism-resistant Replica Omega Watches China Wholesale that require a soft iron cage inside.

Fittingly with its vintage style, the Globemaster is 39 mm in diameter, just right for the correct retro feel. It’s offered in a diverse range of materials, starting with the $20 Replica Watches base model in stainless steel. Despite being entry-level, the steel model is not entirely steel; its bezel is made from tungsten carbide, a hard, grey metal usually used for the tips of industrial drills.
