Omega 50012 Replica

History is an intangible asset for every brand; it can record glorious moments and remember lessons, and it is an indispensable treasure for watches. Under the wheel of time, everything becomes a monument, and each watch has its own time, floating up and down with the tide.

In recent years, more and more watch brands have been re-engraving historical classics. Antiquities that were originally little-known were taken out, cleaned, wiped, and remade according to the originals. Whether out of respect for history or market demand, sharing beautiful and classic watches that only exist in pictures or museum memories with loved ones can turn the dance that originally ended into a new beginning.

The nostalgic watch I want to talk about this year is Omega’s museum series. Omega has launched ten museum series since 2000. They all follow strict regulations: first, each watch must have a history of more than 50 years in order to meet the conditions, and filter based on the stories behind them to select styles with great individuality and historical value.

The Museum No. 1 launched in 2000 is the 1938 flight watch, which maintains the standard appearance of the flight watch of that year. It has a powerful luminous light that makes it easy to read the time under any circumstances and a clear scale design, making it easy to calculate flight hours or two-way rotation of time between places.

The bezel reflects the high degree of instrumental rationality in design; there is also a special leather strap 60 cm long and 6 cm wide, which is also designed to follow the early pilots’ habit of “wearing” the watch on their legs to read the time when flying. When it debuted at the BASEL watch show, it was so popular that the brand had to increase the original limited edition of 1,938 pieces to 4,938 pieces.

The second model of the Museum Series was launched in 2001. It is a replica of Omega’s first multiple calendar watch, the Cosmic Moon Phase Watch, in 1951. The original version of the movement was the first in Switzerland to be equipped with day, calendar, month and moon phase in 1947. A movement with complex functions such as profit and loss. Teardrop-shaped lugs were a very popular style in the 1950s, but the square case was not only a unique shape for Omega at the time, but unexpectedly showed a modern style that transcended the times.

Every watch should have its own time. Even if you meet the person who cherishes it again decades later, every watch in the museum series has its story and soul; even if it is not destined to be born for most people, looking back It is enough that my heart is still strong.
