About the Omega Globemaster<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
A no-nonsense grab and daily activity watch (GADA for short), the Omega Globemaster offers beauty in its simplicity. The Omega Globemaster is a sleeper choice for anyone seeking a timepiece that can be worn with a suit or a pair of jeans\u2014that can be taken from the boardroom to the beach. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
It has a fluted bezel that accentuates the star of the show: the pie-pan dial, an ode to Omega\u2019s earliest Constellation watch, released in 1952. The current version is available in two sizes: the 39mm offers great wearing dimensions, while the 41mm offers an additional and unique complication: an annual calendar with a pointer month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
History of the Omega Globemaster <\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Going through any watch catalog can often be confusing, and a quick visit to Omega\u2019s website reveals that the Globemaster line of watches is, in actuality, a subcollection of the Constellation line. This is due to the Globemaster’s historical connection with the earlier Constellation watches. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Previously, there was a legal complication surrounding the use of the name “Constellation” in the USA, prompting Omega to adopt the name “Globemaster” instead. Consequently, the Globemaster remains a part of the Constellation line of watches to this day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The first \u201cConstellation\u201d watch was launched in 1952, with a pie-pan dial and an applied star just above the 6 o\u2019clock, visual characteristics that remain over 70 years later! Thanks to its top-notch build and reliable precision, the Constellation quickly became known as “The Swiss watch.” The eight stars on its medallion stand for the eight precision records OMEGA set at Kew-Teddington and the Geneva Observatory in the mid-20th century. The iconic engraving of the stars and observatory is a nod to these accomplishments and to the amazing accuracy the Constellation watch has always delivered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I absolutely adore watches with a rich history. The iconic engraving of an observatory and eight stars is still situated as a medallion atop the sapphire exhibition caseback of every Omega Globemaster watch; the first time I held one in my hand and flipped it over, I felt an overwhelming sense of Omega\u2019s identity: precision timekeeping, space exploration, movement technology, and heritage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Omega Globemaster: In-Depth Review <\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Available in two case sizes\u201439mm and 41mm\u2014an array of dial colors, strap options, and case materials, the Omega Globemaster is as versatile as can be. Regardless of your preferences, there is a perfect Omega Globemaster suitable for everyone. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
My favorite 39mm version is the sun-brushed blue dial, and in 41mm, my eyes kept settling on the sun-brushed green dial (for some reason, Omega seems to love the word sun-brushed here). As with any timepiece, the specifics are important, so let\u2019s get into it! <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Case Sizes & Materials<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
When first visiting an AD for a watch model I am unfamiliar with, I proudly point to my bony wrists, sheepishly smile, and ask what sizes does the watch come in. I quickly learned that the Omega Globemaster comes in two size configurations: 39mm and 41mm. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The salesman was extraordinarily accommodating and knowledgeable, insisting on trying both sizes before deciding. The 39mm has a lug to lug of 46.7mm, a case thickness of 12.6mm, and a lug width of 20mm. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
These smaller models are available in stainless steel, two-tone steel and yellow gold, two-tone steel and Sedna (rose) gold, solid Sedna gold, and solid platinum. He had everything in stock, so I was lucky enough to get some wrist time with virtually all of the configurations. I felt like a kid in a candy shop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The 41mm version was larger, but not so much that it would appear comical on an average wrist. It has a lug-to-lug of 50.1mm, a case thickness of 14.6mm, and a lug width of 20mm. This larger model is available in stainless steel, two-tone steel and Sedna gold, solid Sedna gold, and solid platinum. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Additionally, the 41 mm stainless steel case features a tungsten carbide bezel for greater durability. My experience with tungsten carbide, to this point, was limited to rings and men\u2019s jewelry, but seeing Omega\u2019s usage of different materials was a breath of fresh air in an industry that often doesn\u2019t think outside of the box.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Both sizes offer 100m of water resistance, though it\u2019s worth noting that Omega achieves this without a screw-down crown (which I am totally okay with!). The Omega Globemaster, like all Omega watches, is crafted to a high standard, with superior anti-magnetic (15,000 gauss) and shock-resistant properties. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Either version is the perfect accompaniment to using a sledgehammer and running through magnetic fields, but in all seriousness, these watches are up to the task no matter what you throw at them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dials<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
When I first saw that Omega pie-pan dial, I was mesmerized. And I didn’t even know what a pie pan was (according to my wife, it’s that white ceramic pan in which she bakes apple pies). Baking aside, this dial pattern makes the Globemaster seem like it came through a time machine straight from the 1970s (and it’s very legible, too). <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The brilliant dials, available in various hues of blue, silver, white, gray, green, brown, gold, and even vivid red, are framed by the signature fluted bezel, offering superior light play and an elevated wearing experience. The 41mm versions have an extra hand because of their annual calendar functionality, pointing to the appropriate month written in elegant cursive. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Movements<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
The 39mm version of the Omega Globemaster comes with the Calibre 8900, a self-winding movement equipped with a Co-Axial escapement. It is certified as a Master Chronometer, approved by METAS, demonstrating superior accuracy and resistance to magnetic fields up to 15,000 gauss. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Its design incorporates a free-sprung balance with a silicon balance spring, complemented by two barrels mounted in series for automatic winding in both directions. The exquisite finish includes a rhodium-plated rotor and bridges adorned with Geneva waves in arabesque, adding a touch of luxury. This movement offers a generous 60 hours of power reserve. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The 41mm version of the Omega Globemaster features the Calibre 8923, a self-winding movement featuring a Co-Axial escapement. This movement is also a certified Master Chronometer. Its construction includes a free-sprung balance with a silicon balance spring, along with twin barrels. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Notably, it offers an annual calendar with an instantaneous jump and a central-hand month indication. Adding to its prestige is an elevated luxury finish, characterized by an 18K Sedna\u2122 gold rotor and balance bridge embellished with Geneva waves in arabesque. This movement offers 55 hours of power reserve.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Strap Options<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Because both watches have a 20mm lug width, there is a wide variety of straps available for purchase, both from Omega and even aftermarket. That said, Omega offers a variety of leather straps, with crocodilian patterns: gray, navy, brown, green, tan, and oxblood. The 39mm version can be purchased with a stainless steel bracelet, or two tone yellow gold and steel\/Sedna gold and steel. When I visited the AD, I tried on both bracelet and leather strap options, and the bracelet won by a landslide. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
But I didn\u2019t see any of the 41mm versions on the bracelet, so I asked if they could fit one on for me. They, unfortunately, informed me that the bracelet did not fit the larger 41mm version because of the difference in case thickness. I shrugged, slightly disappointed that customers with larger wrists didn\u2019t have access to the same excellent bracelet as those available on the 39mm version.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
On The Wrist<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Now my wrist is a bit on the smaller side, at 6.75 inches, but not far from the \u201caverage\u201d of most men. With that said, I found the 39mm version of the Globemaster to be an absolute joy on the wrist. It has a lug-to-lug of 46mm, which is only 1mm less than my Omega Railmaster. For those that don\u2019t know, lug-to-lug width is measured from the end of the 12 o\u2019clock lug to the end of the 6 o’clock lug. This measurement is usually a better predictor of wearability than case size. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Lug-to-lugs shorter than 50mm are often best or average wrists because they don\u2019t \u201coverhang\u201d over the edges of your wrist. This makes for a much more comfortable wear. Some watches feel like a burden to wear, and others disappear on the wrist. The 39mm Globemaster disappeared on my wrist when I tried it on at the AD. The 41mm Globemaster is larger, with a lug-to-lug of 50mm. It did not, and after 30 seconds of wearing it, I knew it would never work for me. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Most Popular Omega Globemaster Models <\/h2>\n\n\n\n
There are close to twenty configurations of the Omega Globemaster for sale. With such a dizzying number of options, I\u2019d like to offer you five of my favorites that are worthy of your consideration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Omega Constellation Globemaster Omega Co-Axial Master Chronometer 39mm Silver Dial on Bracelet (ref. 130.30.39.21.02.001)<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n![\"Omega](\"https:\/\/www.exquisitetimepieces.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Omega-Constellation-Globemaster-39mm-White-Dial-ref.-130.30.39.21.02.001-1024x469.jpg\")
<\/figure>\n\n\n\nThis is the bread and butter of the Omega Constellation collection; 39mm, stainless steel, with Omega\u2019s legendary Co-Axial movement, this watch is an appropriate accompaniment to virtually any outfit or situation. With a color-matching date at the 6 o\u2019clock position and a pristine silver pie-pan dial, the Omega Constellation Globemaster in 39mm is a no-brainer, especially considering its value proposition at $7,900. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Omega Constellation Globemaster Omega Co-Axial Master Chronometer 39mm (ref. 130.33.39.21.03.001)<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n![\"Omega](\"https:\/\/www.exquisitetimepieces.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Omega-Constellation-Globemaster-ref.-130.33.39.21.03.001-1024x469.jpg\")
<\/figure>\n\n\n\nIt doesn\u2019t take a rocket scientist to realize that after black, blue is one of the most popular dial colors in horology. For those looking to add a splash of color and style to their daily wear, the Omega Constellation Globemaster, with its deep, but not quite navy, blue dial, is both elegant and subtle in its aesthetic charm. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Of all the dial colors, I think the fluted bezel really compliments the blue best. After some reflections, I think the contrast of polished steel and the light play work really well with the deep blue dial. This specific reference comes on a leather crocodile patterned strap, but the stainless steel bracelet is available as well. The MSRP with the strap is $7.500.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Omega Constellation Globemaster Co-Axial Master Chronometer Annual Calendar 41mm (ref. 130.33.41.22.10.001)<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\nI may be a bit biased here because green is my favorite color, but Omega really hit the bullseye with what they refer to as a \u201csun-brushed\u201d green dial. The tungsten carbide bezel provides enhanced durability and scratch resistance, and the 41mm sizing offers greater wrist presence and legibility, which is necessary for using the annual calendar function\u2014each month printed in sharp cursive and flanked by the applied indices. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
A green leather strap, matching the dial, is both supple and complimentary to the timepiece. Omega manages to pack loads of technology, finishing, and horology in this timepiece, all while keeping it under $10,000 (MSRP of $9,200). This is a watch worthy of your consideration! <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Omega Constellation Globemaster Omega Co-Axial Master Chronometer 39mm Yellow Gold (ref. 130.53.39.21.02.002)<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\nA yellow gold watch is a sign of accomplishment, of life\u2019s journey, of considering one’s success. The yellow gold Omega Constellation Globemaster in 39mm exudes luxury and sophistication. It has an opaline silvery dial, with yellow gold indices, star, and hand set. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The motif coin on the back of the watch is also in yellow gold, with a Sedna gold rotor to offer some contrast. Overall, anyone looking for a gold watch that can be dressed up or down should greatly consider this model, as the MSRP of $25,200 is a bargain when considering the competition. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Omega Constellation Globemaster Omega Co-Axial Master Chronometer 39mm Sedna Gold & Steel (ref. 130.20.39.21.03.001)<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\nI know some consider Sedna gold to be a fancy name for rose gold, but I have to admit that there is something special about the luster and light play of Omega\u2019s Sedna gold\u2014it feels out of this world, which is appropriate considering the brand\u2019s connection to space exploration. This is a two-tone stainless steel and Sedna gold piece, complete with a two tone bracelet that offers the perfect marriage between casual and dressy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The sun-brushed blue dial is a marvel to behold, and the 39mm sizing fits the needs of the vast majority of wrists. I know what you\u2019re probably thinking: two-tone Sedna gold with a bracelet, that has to be a lot of money. But it\u2019s not; the Omega Constellation Globemaster Sedna and Steel watch retails for $13,600, offering superb value for the money.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Should You Buy An Omega Constellation Globemaster?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
The wonderful thing about the Omega Constellation Globemaster is that there is a timepiece in this collection for everyone, truly. It makes a great graduation or early career piece in stainless steel. It also travels well\u2014hence the name\u2014in either 39 or 41mm. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Its 100m of water resistance, superior antimagnetic properties and shock resistance, and timeless styling make for a dynamic timepiece. So yes, I wholeheartedly suggest this collection to anyone looking for something that will wear well, age well, and offer superior time telling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Omega Globemasters are available at all authorized dealers of Omega. The stainless steel models, on the leather straps, start at $7,500. Opting for the bracelet brings the price up to $7,900.

History of the Omega Globemaster <\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Going through any watch catalog can often be confusing, and a quick visit to Omega\u2019s website reveals that the Globemaster line of watches is, in actuality, a subcollection of the Constellation line. This is due to the Globemaster’s historical connection with the earlier Constellation watches. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Previously, there was a legal complication surrounding the use of the name “Constellation” in the USA, prompting Omega to adopt the name “Globemaster” instead. Consequently, the Globemaster remains a part of the Constellation line of watches to this day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The first \u201cConstellation\u201d watch was launched in 1952, with a pie-pan dial and an applied star just above the 6 o\u2019clock, visual characteristics that remain over 70 years later! Thanks to its top-notch build and reliable precision, the Constellation quickly became known as “The Swiss watch.” The eight stars on its medallion stand for the eight precision records OMEGA set at Kew-Teddington and the Geneva Observatory in the mid-20th century.

I absolutely adore watches with a rich history. The iconic engraving of an observatory and eight stars is still situated as a medallion atop the sapphire exhibition caseback of every Omega Globemaster watch; the first time I held one in my hand and flipped it over, I felt an overwhelming sense of Omega\u2019s identity: precision timekeeping, space exploration, movement technology, and heritage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Omega Globemaster: In-Depth Review <\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Available in two case sizes\u201439mm and 41mm\u2014an array of dial colors, strap options, and case materials, the Omega Globemaster is as versatile as can be. Regardless of your preferences, there is a perfect Omega Globemaster suitable for everyone. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
My favorite 39mm version is the sun-brushed blue dial, and in 41mm, my eyes kept settling on the sun-brushed green dial (for some reason, Omega seems to love the word sun-brushed here). As with any timepiece, the specifics are important, so let\u2019s get into it! <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Case Sizes & Materials<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
When first visiting an AD for a watch model I am unfamiliar with, I proudly point to my bony wrists, sheepishly smile, and ask what sizes does the watch come in. I quickly learned that the Omega Globemaster comes in two size configurations: 39mm and 41mm. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The salesman was extraordinarily accommodating and knowledgeable, insisting on trying both sizes before deciding. The 39mm has a lug to lug of 46.7mm, a case thickness of 12.6mm, and a lug width of 20mm. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
These smaller models are available in stainless steel, two-tone steel and yellow gold, two-tone steel and Sedna (rose) gold, solid Sedna gold, and solid platinum. He had everything in stock, so I was lucky enough to get some wrist time with virtually all of the configurations. I felt like a kid in a candy shop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The 41mm version was larger, but not so much that it would appear comical on an average wrist. It has a lug-to-lug of 50.1mm, a case thickness of 14.6mm, and a lug width of 20mm. This larger model is available in stainless steel, two-tone steel and Sedna gold, solid Sedna gold, and solid platinum. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Additionally, the 41 mm stainless steel case features a tungsten carbide bezel for greater durability. My experience with tungsten carbide, to this point, was limited to rings and men\u2019s jewelry, but seeing Omega\u2019s usage of different materials was a breath of fresh air in an industry that often doesn\u2019t think outside of the box.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Both sizes offer 100m of water resistance, though it\u2019s worth noting that Omega achieves this without a screw-down crown (which I am totally okay with!). The Omega Globemaster, like all Omega watches, is crafted to a high standard, with superior anti-magnetic (15,000 gauss) and shock-resistant properties. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Either version is the perfect accompaniment to using a sledgehammer and running through magnetic fields, but in all seriousness, these watches are up to the task no matter what you throw at them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dials<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
When I first saw that Omega pie-pan dial, I was mesmerized. And I didn’t even know what a pie pan was (according to my wife, it’s that white ceramic pan in which she bakes apple pies). Baking aside, this dial pattern makes the Globemaster seem like it came through a time machine straight from the 1970s (and it’s very legible, too). <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The brilliant dials, available in various hues of blue, silver, white, gray, green, brown, gold, and even vivid red, are framed by the signature fluted bezel, offering superior light play and an elevated wearing experience. The 41mm versions have an extra hand because of their annual calendar functionality, pointing to the appropriate month written in elegant cursive. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Movements<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
The 39mm version of the Omega Globemaster comes with the Calibre 8900, a self-winding movement equipped with a Co-Axial escapement. It is certified as a Master Chronometer, approved by METAS, demonstrating superior accuracy and resistance to magnetic fields up to 15,000 gauss. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Its design incorporates a free-sprung balance with a silicon balance spring, complemented by two barrels mounted in series for automatic winding in both directions. The exquisite finish includes a rhodium-plated rotor and bridges adorned with Geneva waves in arabesque, adding a touch of luxury. This movement offers a generous 60 hours of power reserve. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The 41mm version of the Omega Globemaster features the Calibre 8923, a self-winding movement featuring a Co-Axial escapement. This movement is also a certified Master Chronometer. Its construction includes a free-sprung balance with a silicon balance spring, along with twin barrels. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Notably, it offers an annual calendar with an instantaneous jump and a central-hand month indication. Adding to its prestige is an elevated luxury finish, characterized by an 18K Sedna\u2122 gold rotor and balance bridge embellished with Geneva waves in arabesque. This movement offers 55 hours of power reserve.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Strap Options<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Because both watches have a 20mm lug width, there is a wide variety of straps available for purchase, both from Omega and even aftermarket. That said, Omega offers a variety of leather straps, with crocodilian patterns: gray, navy, brown, green, tan, and oxblood. The 39mm version can be purchased with a stainless steel bracelet, or two tone yellow gold and steel\/Sedna gold and steel. When I visited the AD, I tried on both bracelet and leather strap options, and the bracelet won by a landslide. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
But I didn\u2019t see any of the 41mm versions on the bracelet, so I asked if they could fit one on for me. They, unfortunately, informed me that the bracelet did not fit the larger 41mm version because of the difference in case thickness. I shrugged, slightly disappointed that customers with larger wrists didn\u2019t have access to the same excellent bracelet as those available on the 39mm version.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
On The Wrist<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Now my wrist is a bit on the smaller side, at 6.75 inches, but not far from the \u201caverage\u201d of most men. With that said, I found the 39mm version of the Globemaster to be an absolute joy on the wrist. It has a lug-to-lug of 46mm, which is only 1mm less than my Omega Railmaster. For those that don\u2019t know, lug-to-lug width is measured from the end of the 12 o\u2019clock lug to the end of the 6 o’clock lug. This measurement is usually a better predictor of wearability than case size. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Lug-to-lugs shorter than 50mm are often best or average wrists because they don\u2019t \u201coverhang\u201d over the edges of your wrist. This makes for a much more comfortable wear. Some watches feel like a burden to wear, and others disappear on the wrist. The 39mm Globemaster disappeared on my wrist when I tried it on at the AD. The 41mm Globemaster is larger, with a lug-to-lug of 50mm. It did not, and after 30 seconds of wearing it, I knew it would never work for me. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Omega Constellation Globemaster Omega Co-Axial Master Chronometer 39mm Silver Dial on Bracelet (ref. 130.30.39.21.02.001)<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\nThis is the bread and butter of the Omega Constellation collection; 39mm, stainless steel, with Omega\u2019s legendary Co-Axial movement, this watch is an appropriate accompaniment to virtually any outfit or situation. With a color-matching date at the 6 o\u2019clock position and a pristine silver pie-pan dial, the Omega Constellation Globemaster in 39mm is a no-brainer, especially considering its value proposition at $7,900. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Omega Constellation Globemaster Omega Co-Axial Master Chronometer 39mm (ref. 130.33.39.21.03.001)<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\nIt doesn\u2019t take a rocket scientist to realize that after black, blue is one of the most popular dial colors in horology. For those looking to add a splash of color and style to their daily wear, the Omega Constellation Globemaster, with its deep, but not quite navy, blue dial, is both elegant and subtle in its aesthetic charm. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Of all the dial colors, I think the fluted bezel really compliments the blue best. After some reflections, I think the contrast of polished steel and the light play work really well with the deep blue dial. This specific reference comes on a leather crocodile patterned strap, but the stainless steel bracelet is available as well. The MSRP with the strap is $7.500.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Omega Constellation Globemaster Co-Axial Master Chronometer Annual Calendar 41mm (ref. 130.33.41.22.10.001)<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\nI may be a bit biased here because green is my favorite color, but Omega really hit the bullseye with what they refer to as a \u201csun-brushed\u201d green dial. The tungsten carbide bezel provides enhanced durability and scratch resistance, and the 41mm sizing offers greater wrist presence and legibility, which is necessary for using the annual calendar function\u2014each month printed in sharp cursive and flanked by the applied indices. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
A green leather strap, matching the dial, is both supple and complimentary to the timepiece. Omega manages to pack loads of technology, finishing, and horology in this timepiece, all while keeping it under $10,000 (MSRP of $9,200). This is a watch worthy of your consideration! <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Omega Constellation Globemaster Omega Co-Axial Master Chronometer 39mm Yellow Gold (ref. 130.53.39.21.02.002)<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\nA yellow gold watch is a sign of accomplishment, of life\u2019s journey, of considering one’s success. The yellow gold Omega Constellation Globemaster in 39mm exudes luxury and sophistication. It has an opaline silvery dial, with yellow gold indices, star, and hand set. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The motif coin on the back of the watch is also in yellow gold, with a Sedna gold rotor to offer some contrast. Overall, anyone looking for a gold watch that can be dressed up or down should greatly consider this model, as the MSRP of $25,200 is a bargain when considering the competition. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Omega Constellation Globemaster Omega Co-Axial Master Chronometer 39mm Sedna Gold & Steel (ref. 130.20.39.21.03.001)<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\nI know some consider Sedna gold to be a fancy name for rose gold, but I have to admit that there is something special about the luster and light play of Omega\u2019s Sedna gold\u2014it feels out of this world, which is appropriate considering the brand\u2019s connection to space exploration. This is a two-tone stainless steel and Sedna gold piece, complete with a two tone bracelet that offers the perfect marriage between casual and dressy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The sun-brushed blue dial is a marvel to behold, and the 39mm sizing fits the needs of the vast majority of wrists. I know what you\u2019re probably thinking: two-tone Sedna gold with a bracelet, that has to be a lot of money. But it\u2019s not; the Omega Constellation Globemaster Sedna and Steel watch retails for $13,600, offering superb value for the money.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Should You Buy An Omega Constellation Globemaster?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
The wonderful thing about the Omega Constellation Globemaster is that there is a timepiece in this collection for everyone, truly. It makes a great graduation or early career piece in stainless steel. It also travels well\u2014hence the name\u2014in either 39 or 41mm. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Its 100m of water resistance, superior antimagnetic properties and shock resistance, and timeless styling make for a dynamic timepiece. So yes, I wholeheartedly suggest this collection to anyone looking for something that will wear well, age well, and offer superior time telling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

About the Omega Globemaster<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
A no-nonsense grab and daily activity watch (GADA for short), the Omega Globemaster offers beauty in its simplicity. The Omega Globemaster is a sleeper choice for anyone seeking a timepiece that can be worn with a suit or a pair of jeans\u2014that can be taken from the boardroom to the beach. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
It has a fluted bezel that accentuates the star of the show: the pie-pan dial, an ode to Omega\u2019s earliest Constellation watch, released in 1952. The current version is available in two sizes: the 39mm offers great wearing dimensions, while the 41mm offers an additional and unique complication: an annual calendar with a pointer month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
History of the Omega Globemaster <\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Going through any watch catalog can often be confusing, and a quick visit to Omega\u2019s website reveals that the Globemaster line of watches is, in actuality, a subcollection of the Constellation line. This is due to the Globemaster’s historical connection with the earlier Constellation watches. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Previously, there was a legal complication surrounding the use of the name “Constellation” in the USA, prompting Omega to adopt the name “Globemaster” instead. Consequently, the Globemaster remains a part of the Constellation line of watches to this day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The first \u201cConstellation\u201d watch was launched in 1952, with a pie-pan dial and an applied star just above the 6 o\u2019clock, visual characteristics that remain over 70 years later! Thanks to its top-notch build and reliable precision, the Constellation quickly became known as “The Swiss watch.” The eight stars on its medallion stand for the eight precision records OMEGA set at Kew-Teddington and the Geneva Observatory in the mid-20th century. The iconic engraving of the stars and observatory is a nod to these accomplishments and to the amazing accuracy the Constellation watch has always delivered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I absolutely adore watches with a rich history. The iconic engraving of an observatory and eight stars is still situated as a medallion atop the sapphire exhibition caseback of every Omega Globemaster watch; the first time I held one in my hand and flipped it over, I felt an overwhelming sense of Omega\u2019s identity: precision timekeeping, space exploration, movement technology, and heritage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Omega Globemaster: In-Depth Review <\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Available in two case sizes\u201439mm and 41mm\u2014an array of dial colors, strap options, and case materials, the Omega Globemaster is as versatile as can be. Regardless of your preferences, there is a perfect Omega Globemaster suitable for everyone. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
My favorite 39mm version is the sun-brushed blue dial, and in 41mm, my eyes kept settling on the sun-brushed green dial (for some reason, Omega seems to love the word sun-brushed here). As with any timepiece, the specifics are important, so let\u2019s get into it! <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Case Sizes & Materials<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
When first visiting an AD for a watch model I am unfamiliar with, I proudly point to my bony wrists, sheepishly smile, and ask what sizes does the watch come in. I quickly learned that the Omega Globemaster comes in two size configurations: 39mm and 41mm. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The salesman was extraordinarily accommodating and knowledgeable, insisting on trying both sizes before deciding. The 39mm has a lug to lug of 46.7mm, a case thickness of 12.6mm, and a lug width of 20mm. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
These smaller models are available in stainless steel, two-tone steel and yellow gold, two-tone steel and Sedna (rose) gold, solid Sedna gold, and solid platinum. He had everything in stock, so I was lucky enough to get some wrist time with virtually all of the configurations. I felt like a kid in a candy shop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The 41mm version was larger, but not so much that it would appear comical on an average wrist. It has a lug-to-lug of 50.1mm, a case thickness of 14.6mm, and a lug width of 20mm. This larger model is available in stainless steel, two-tone steel and Sedna gold, solid Sedna gold, and solid platinum. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Additionally, the 41 mm stainless steel case features a tungsten carbide bezel for greater durability. My experience with tungsten carbide, to this point, was limited to rings and men\u2019s jewelry, but seeing Omega\u2019s usage of different materials was a breath of fresh air in an industry that often doesn\u2019t think outside of the box.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Both sizes offer 100m of water resistance, though it\u2019s worth noting that Omega achieves this without a screw-down crown (which I am totally okay with!). The Omega Globemaster, like all Omega watches, is crafted to a high standard, with superior anti-magnetic (15,000 gauss) and shock-resistant properties. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Either version is the perfect accompaniment to using a sledgehammer and running through magnetic fields, but in all seriousness, these watches are up to the task no matter what you throw at them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dials<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
When I first saw that Omega pie-pan dial, I was mesmerized. And I didn’t even know what a pie pan was (according to my wife, it’s that white ceramic pan in which she bakes apple pies). Baking aside, this dial pattern makes the Globemaster seem like it came through a time machine straight from the 1970s (and it’s very legible, too). <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The brilliant dials, available in various hues of blue, silver, white, gray, green, brown, gold, and even vivid red, are framed by the signature fluted bezel, offering superior light play and an elevated wearing experience. The 41mm versions have an extra hand because of their annual calendar functionality, pointing to the appropriate month written in elegant cursive. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Movements<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
The 39mm version of the Omega Globemaster comes with the Calibre 8900, a self-winding movement equipped with a Co-Axial escapement. It is certified as a Master Chronometer, approved by METAS, demonstrating superior accuracy and resistance to magnetic fields up to 15,000 gauss. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Its design incorporates a free-sprung balance with a silicon balance spring, complemented by two barrels mounted in series for automatic winding in both directions. The exquisite finish includes a rhodium-plated rotor and bridges adorned with Geneva waves in arabesque, adding a touch of luxury. This movement offers a generous 60 hours of power reserve. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The 41mm version of the Omega Globemaster features the Calibre 8923, a self-winding movement featuring a Co-Axial escapement. This movement is also a certified Master Chronometer. Its construction includes a free-sprung balance with a silicon balance spring, along with twin barrels. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Notably, it offers an annual calendar with an instantaneous jump and a central-hand month indication. Adding to its prestige is an elevated luxury finish, characterized by an 18K Sedna\u2122 gold rotor and balance bridge embellished with Geneva waves in arabesque. This movement offers 55 hours of power reserve.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Strap Options<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Because both watches have a 20mm lug width, there is a wide variety of straps available for purchase, both from Omega and even aftermarket. That said, Omega offers a variety of leather straps, with crocodilian patterns: gray, navy, brown, green, tan, and oxblood. The 39mm version can be purchased with a stainless steel bracelet, or two tone yellow gold and steel\/Sedna gold and steel. When I visited the AD, I tried on both bracelet and leather strap options, and the bracelet won by a landslide. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
But I didn\u2019t see any of the 41mm versions on the bracelet, so I asked if they could fit one on for me. They, unfortunately, informed me that the bracelet did not fit the larger 41mm version because of the difference in case thickness. I shrugged, slightly disappointed that customers with larger wrists didn\u2019t have access to the same excellent bracelet as those available on the 39mm version.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
On The Wrist<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Now my wrist is a bit on the smaller side, at 6.75 inches, but not far from the \u201caverage\u201d of most men. With that said, I found the 39mm version of the Globemaster to be an absolute joy on the wrist. It has a lug-to-lug of 46mm, which is only 1mm less than my Omega Railmaster. For those that don\u2019t know, lug-to-lug width is measured from the end of the 12 o\u2019clock lug to the end of the 6 o’clock lug. This measurement is usually a better predictor of wearability than case size. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Lug-to-lugs shorter than 50mm are often best or average wrists because they don\u2019t \u201coverhang\u201d over the edges of your wrist. This makes for a much more comfortable wear. Some watches feel like a burden to wear, and others disappear on the wrist. The 39mm Globemaster disappeared on my wrist when I tried it on at the AD. The 41mm Globemaster is larger, with a lug-to-lug of 50mm. It did not, and after 30 seconds of wearing it, I knew it would never work for me. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
