Omega Honors America's Cup Victorious Team with New Chronograph

It is a chronometer-certified mechanism that provides a 40-hour power reserve. Elaborated for the regatta, the timepiece represents a high-precision instrument that gives its owner an opportunity to measure performance to one-eighth of a second. The OMEGA Seamaster NZL-32 is designed to satisfy the major needs of Dean Barker and his crew during a regatta. The timepiece is provided with 'start of the regatta' function that indicates the ten minutes before the starting signal. A special indicator composed of five dots displays the function. The dots gradually get filled with a different color: first they become blue, then red - thus marking the elapse of every successive five-minute period.OMEGA has developed its new Seamaster NZL-32 chronograph to honor Emirates Team New Zealand as the team's official watch. The new Omega timepiece inherited the name of the boat that won the prestigious America's Cup in 1995. OMEGA invited its Ambassador Dean Barker, skipper of Team New Zealand, to collaborate in the development of the watch. The creators of the OMEGA Seamaster NZL-32 wanted it to unite utmost elegance and functionality. The timepiece is driven by OMEGA caliber 3602 self-winding movement.
