Omega Seamaster Planet Ocean Cera Gold watch 3 Omega Seamaster Planet Ocean Ceragold Watches Hands On

For 2012 Omega released a new 18k red gold version of the Seamaster Planet Ocean three-hand and chronograph models with a new type of “Ceragold” bezel. Ceragold is more or less the gold version of Liquidmetal (that I discussed in more detail here). It is a special process that Omega uses to inset gold in the engraved ceramic bezel. In a sense, this is Omega’s answer to Rolex’s Cerachrom.

So why isn’t it just “gold Liquidmetal”? Because it isn’t. The Liquidmetal process is very similar to Ceragold, but uses a different type of metal. Ceragold actually uses gold. In a nutshell, the ceramic bezel is formed and then the numeral and index holes are engraved in the ceramic bezel disc. After a conductive layer is formed in the engraved area, layers of 18k red gold are applied using an “electroforming” process. Next, the excess gold is polished off and the Ceragold bezel is finished. Omega details the Ceragold process rather well here.

So as you can see, Ceragold is similar to Liquidmetal, but not quite the same. Plus, it is a cool term. Note that as of now it only applies to the forming of the bezel. Each of the watches I have photographed are 18k red gold on black, but there are also white with gold models available. The black and gold models are extremely sexy though.

These watches are the 45.5mm wide versions of the Seamaster PO. There is the chronograph and three-hand version available with the Ceragold bezel – both look pretty fantastic. Omega will also offer the smaller three-hand Seamaster PO in the 42mm wide case with the Ceragold bezel. The watches contain in-house made Omega automatic movements. For more information about the Omega Seamaster Planet Ocean watches see my review here.

Being gold models these watches have the higher-end 8501 or 9301 calibre movements. These versions of the 8500 and 9300 movement range have 18k red gold bridges and rotors. At this time I don’t think there is a matching 18k red gold bracelet, but the watches do come on black alligator straps. Omega makes a damn solid diver and nothing is lost here with the 18k red gold versions of the Seamaster Planet Ocean Ceragold models. Prices are $ 22,500 for the 42mm PO, $ 25,000 for the 45.5mm PO, and $ 33,000 for the 45.5mm PO Chronograph Ceragold models.

After the Rolex Explorer and Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso, Mad Men’s Don Draper has now been spotted with an Omega. In episode 6 of the 5th season of Mad Men TV-series, Don Draper impatiently checks his Omega Seamaster DeVille watch sitting in a diner waiting for his lady.

Omega Seamaster DeVille

Despite being introduced as a watch with a water resistant case, the 1950s Seamaster watches were very elegant and not that far away from the more luxurious Constellation collection. In the 1960s, Omega started to develop the Seamaster as a diver’s watch, as we know it today, and introduced the Seamaster DeVille as their more dressy collection of watches.

Omega Seamaster DeVille Automatic

Don Draper wears a Seamaster DeVille with a black dial and a date indicator, like pictured above. This 34mm watch probably has an automatic caliber 562 or 563 and is considered to be one of the nicer automatic calibers that Omega produced in those years. The Seamaster DeVille on the wrist of Mr Draper is early-mid 1960s. Later on, Omega re-introduced the DeVille as a separate collection of the brand.

FratelloWatches found a similar Omega Seamaster DeVille (click the link) on eBay, also black dial, in the tres chic gold/steel combination (so called ‘gold capped’) with a caliber 562 movement for a buy it now price of $ 1295 USD. You will probably be able to find cheaper versions as well, as well as the more expensive all gold versions. Be aware of re-dials and use of incorrect crowns.

Being a fan of the show (unfortunately season 5 has not started here yet in The Netherlands) and having seen seasons 1 – 4, I’d say Don Draper has a fine taste for watches.

Omega has released stunning new additions to its Planet Ocean Collection with the Seamaster Planet Ocean Ceragold watches. These professional dive watches exude performance and mechanical precision with a style for fashion.

The Omega Ceragold is a technology first that has allowed the bonding of 18-carat gold into zirconium-based ceramic. The result is an amazingly smooth finished ceramic bezel with a Ceragold diving scale.

The Omega Seamaster Planet Ocean Ceragold Chronograph has used the Ceragold to showcase a beautifully designed bezel ring with a polished black zirconium-based ceramic. The contrast between the black and the Ceragold is stunning. Of course, the Seamaster Planet Ocean Ceragold watch comes with all the lovely dive features inherent in the Planet Ocean Collection:

  • Unidirectional rotating bezel
  • Helium escape valve
  • White Super-LumiNova coated indexes that emit a blue light
  • Minute hand and diving bezel that emit a green light

These features are truly unique and a definite benefit to all divers. The watches are also water resistant to 2,000 feet.

The Seamaster Planet Ocean Ceragold Chronograph is a gorgeous watch with an Omega Co-Axial caliber 9301 for a heart. This proprietary co-axial movement allows the adjustment of the hour hand without upsetting the operation of the minute or seconds hand. This is a gift to those owners who tend to change time zones. The dial of the chronograph is a smooth black with two sub-dials, one at three o’clock for the 60-minute and 12-hour counters and one at the nine o’clock for seconds. A black leather strap with an 18-carat gold foldover clasp finishes this chronograph.

The second amazing new watch in the Planet Ocean Collection is the Omega Seamaster Planet Ocean Ceragold White Planet St. Moritz. While the chronograph was all about the color black, the St. Moritz is all about white. Fitting that it is therefore named after the town of St. Moritz in the Swiss mountains where Omega is involved with timing world-renowned bobsleigh races.

The heart of the St. Moritz is an Omega Co-Axial caliber 8501. It is equipped with an 18-carat red gold rotor and balance bridge. This beautiful timepiece comes with a matte white dial with Ceragold bezel and numeral highlights. Engraved on the caseback are: Si14, Ceragold, White Planet and St. Moritz. The Si14 is a reference to the St. Moritz silicon balance spring. The white leather strap with an 18-carat gold foldover clasp completes the timepiece.

Omega has dazzled us again with their Ceragold Planet Ocean additions. The fusion of materials is simply a masterpiece. The Seamaster Planet Ocean Ceragold Chronograph and White Planet St. Moritz are two timepieces that guarantee satisfaction and a feeling of luxurious fashion.
