Omega on Thursday introduced the Constellation Observatory Collection, with two new movements across nine references that reinterpret the maison’s aesthetic codes. The introduction also marks the first time a two-hand hour and minute watch has achieved Master Chronometer certification.

“Until now, precision certification has required a seconds hand,” says Raynald Aeschlimann, President and CEO of Omega. “It is this breakthrough that has enabled us to present the Constellation Observatory, the first two-hand watch to achieve Master Chronometer certification.”
