To ensure that every part of the watch can be perfectly integrated, Omega’s watchmakers also created a black ceramic version of the crown and helium escape valve.Īlthough the new Black Black is the color of night, its dial is easy to read at all times. The Omega Replications for sale 43.5 mm black ceramic polished and brushed case is fixed on the wrist by an integrated black rubber strap, and the buckle is made of the same material as the case. As well as being easy on the eye, the Super Clone Seamaster Diver 300M Black Black is easy to read – even in the dark.

Exact Omega replica has taken advantage of ceramic’s versatility, to create a watch in contrasting shades from a single colour.Īs always, Omega has stayed true to the 300M’s original design and ensures the watch meets all required dive watch functions. While I think the Sedna Black is my favorite of the new DSotM lineup, the Black Black is a great way to say, “f$&k it, I’m gonna wear a badass watch.” I can’t wait to see what they can come up with next.Omega’s Seamaster collection is given an all black variant, with a new model which is called Black Black. It is no doubt the logical conclusion of the blacked-out watch trend, and Omega somehow pulled it off as best they could. The Black Black was a nice change of pace from my vintage rotation. In fact, the comfortable Kevlar strap with a new deployant clasp make it a great summer statement watch – you might just have to fight Bruce Wayne to get your hands on one, though. With that said, I think the Black Black is a better fit for weekend or casual wear. While it’s a tall watch at 16mm, I didn’t have too much trouble wearing it with a suit. The case shape sits nicely on the wrist, and the lightweight ceramic tells your brain you’re wearing a smaller watch than what’s there. I’m sure the black color helps it wear a bit smaller, but it’s also something about the case. I found this to be the same situation with the original DSotM. Wearability of the Black Black was quite good for a hefty 44.25mm case. Pictures can only tell half the story I needed to see just how black the Black Black really is. I wanted to review this one because I truly couldn’t remember seeing it at Baselworld in our sit-down with Omega. They already came up with a watch called Pitch Black, and that’s about half as black as Black Black. What I mean by that is, they can get away with making a watch that’s entirely black, and then call it “Black Black”. Omega has been in a groove these last few years – enough so where they can get away with some “different” kinds of moves.

Obviously, there will be buyers who favor it over the others, but it just came off as slightly redundant. The tachymeter scale and the lume on the hands and dial have a green-ish tint to it, but other than that, it’s almost the same. To me, it looks too similar to the original DSotM. If I’m being honest – which is pretty much the only way I roll – I’m not sure of the Pitch Black’s place in the lineup. I know lots of folks are anti-faux-tina, but I like the warmness it brings to the overall look, versus the colder, standard white lume. I’ve been trying to get over the whole vintage-style modern watch trend, but both the Vintage Black and the Speedmaster ’57 Vintage reeled me back in – I’m sorry, but I like them. With its gold hands, markers and bezel ring complementing the overall black aesthetic, the Sedna Black was a well conceived addition to the lineup. I can recall quite clearly having my hands on the Sedna Black and Vintage Black, and liking them. Omega went with four new models to complement the original DSotM: Sedna Black, Pitch Black, Vintage Black, and the one we got our hands on, the Black Black. That’s why I wanted to take a closer look at the updated Dark Side of the Moon Speedmaster series. While I stand by that initial judgment, I’m always open to changing my mind upon further review. As you may recall, I mentioned their strategy seemed as if they took a bunch of darts and threw them at the wall, and subsequently picking up the ones that didn’t stick and using them anyway. Baselworld 2015 was quite an unveiling for Omega.
