Omega 130.33.41.22.06.001 (Pre-owned - Excellent) — USD 7,786 on eBay

The Omega Globemaster Annual Calendar, reference 130.33.41.22.06.001, represents a pivotal moment in the brand's history, being part of the series that introduced the world's first Master Chronometer certification in 2016. This model seamlessly integrates the classical elegance of Omega's De Ville collection with groundbreaking technical innovation. Its design pays homage to vintage Constellation models, notably through the distinctive fluted, or coin-edge, bezel and the overall refined aesthetic that evokes mid-century Omega dress watches, blending heritage with contemporary watchmaking. Encased in a robust 41 mm stainless steel case, the Globemaster Annual Calendar presents a sophisticated grey dial, offering excellent legibility for both time and its advanced complication. The annual calendar mechanism, which requires adjustment only once per year at the end of February, is elegantly displayed, providing a practical and horologically interesting feature for the discerning collector. With a water resistance of 100 meters, the watch combines its inherent elegance with a degree of everyday practicality. Powering this distinguished timepiece is the Omega Co-Axial Master Chronometer Caliber 8922, an automatic movement at the forefront of modern horology. This caliber is celebrated for its exceptional precision, performance, and magnetic resistance, having undergone rigorous testing and certification by the Swiss Federal Institute of Metrology (METAS) to meet the stringent Master Chronometer standards. The integration of Omega's proprietary Co-Axial escapement significantly reduces friction, contributing to greater accuracy and extended service intervals, underscoring the watch's advanced engineering and its significant position within Omega's technical achievements.
