For all large fans of Omega's heritage and its iconic watches, such as the Speedmaster Professional, or simply the Moonwatch, for people who want to combine tradition using the most recent trends, the Swiss watchmaker created a modern day version with the legend, with a new style and materials, and with an advanced mechanism. Aside from, the Speedmaster HB-SIA Co-Axial GMT Chronograph with its intriguing and mysterious name refers towards the first ever, completely solar powered aircraft (the Solar Impulse HB-SIA) which development was partially sponsored and technically supported by Omega.
The plane with two electric prop engines is powered by lithium ion batteries that get energy from solar panels, located all over its surface. This single-seater can shop sufficient energy to take off and fly all day and night below its personal power. The constructors from the plane used a customized carbon fiber honeycomb sandwich structure to obtain highly light wings. This material can also be used by the Swiss watchmaker for the dial of the Speedmaster HB-SIA Co-Axial GMT Chronograph, which is quite uncommon for Omega watches.
This Speedmaster is also specific, simply because its situation is crafted in titanium, another rarely utilised materials by Omega. (Actually, it truly is the initial Speedmaster created of titanium.) One variation of this certain model also has a bracelet made from this really light and challenging material. Other two versions with the Solar Impulse timepiece include rubber straps, either in black or orange color.
The dial from the HB-SIA watch, with its 24 hours track is similar to the interface of a Speedmaster Broad Arrow GMT Co-Axial Chronograph. White luminous markers indicate even hours, even though Arabic numerals indicate odd hours, from 1 to 23. Central hands are also really vivid and easy to study, at the same time as chronograph sub-dials. Only the date window looks just a little bit hidden on the carbon fiber surface. The orange GMT hand using a plane-shaped best that displays time in the second time zone is actually a actually great answer for this model. Apart from, it truly is independently adjustable.
