Since its launch, the Constellation series has been cherished by watch lovers and enthusiasts. Besides the high-quality, precise movement, the Constellation was more creative in design, and soon, the nicknames of Bagua Noodles, Pai Pan, Crosshair, Black Fly Characters, Abalone Shells, and Tooth Rings were shared among fans. To this day, these names seem to be the standard for telling whether someone knows what they are doing or not.

In 2015, OMEGA took the classic features of the Constellations, specifically the pie plate and tooth ring, and launched the Globemaster. At the same time, OMEGA and the Swiss Federal Institute of Metrology (METAS) introduced a test based on the COSC certification of the Swiss Official Chronometer Observatory. This test includes movements to simulate everyday wear after being placed in the case, and it also checks water resistance and resistance to 15,000 gauss (1.5T) strong magnetic field interference. Watches that pass the test receive the title of “Master Chronometer.” The first Supreme Chronometer honor goes to the new Omega Constellation Prestige.

Recently, with the mindset of “testing the watch,” we reached out to Siemens Healthineers Group, hoping to borrow the world’s first “Magnetom Terra” 70,000 gauss (7T) super NMR device just released by them and the University Hospital of Erlangen in Germany to “test” the Constellation Zunba of the Master Chronometer. The result was that until the magnetic field reached 60,000 gauss, the Zunba still worked accurately. However, when the magnetic field increased to 70,000 gauss, due to the eddy current effect between the metal hands and the dial, the hands became bent and stopped. Throughout the test, without any degaussing, the Zunba was able to maintain an incredible operating value at the level of the observatory!
