- In 2015, Omega did what it does best and confused one of its model lines further with an additional subcategory. Think Seamaster Aqua Terra, but this time for the Constellation, and you’ll have the Globemaster. Inspired by the Constellation watches of the fifties and sixties, it’s a fine timepiece at a price you’d expect, that sits in the shadow of its Rolex equivalent-but now there’s this, the Globemaster Annual Calendar, and it’s a bit of a bargain.

Man these guys got me wanting all sorts of watched I can’t afford.
Lol
Yea Mr. Talking Hands is very good at that
Honestly, I really hope Omega takes back the #1 spot one day, albeit I’m very aware that’s highly unlikely. Their modern watches trump Rolex in many ways, and I’m loving my new Aqua Terra :)
They deserve the hype more than Roler that's fo 'sho
They should align their date numbers correctly at least before becoming anywhere near #1. Check the date window at 5:00 min. This is ok for a 500$ Seiko but not for 5k+ Omega
@@m.s.519 If you think that's bad you should see a Rolex up close.
@@m.s.519- what’s wrong there ? What alignment is missing ?
What I'd love to see are options for women who don't want some froufrou diamond-covered watch that you can't ever wear. I find myself looking at vintage men's watches from the '50s and '60s because they're cool looking and tend to be about 35mm instead for the 40+mm you see today. I would like to know more about options women have in more modern mechanical/automatic watches. Thanks. :)
I so agree
My wife likes some of the NOMOS watches, they have that elegance on simplicity feeling.
@Kristen Schroeder I couldn’t agree more to your comment. When I see what the watch industry offers for women, it’s awful. Or it’s covered with stones and/or it’s some cliche coloured watch (rose, red, whatever). Also the „women“ models are very often way too small, 26-30mm.
same. not too many interesting options at 36 mm. i cant stand the cyclops or the fluted bezels on rolex's 36mm watches that arent time only, so all im left looking at is the black bay 36 or the oyster perpetual 36. not too exciting.
That's why I've been looking at vintage mens Omegas, Hamiltons, etc. from the '50s and '60s. They're all around 35mm and have a cool vintage vibe but if we want something modern, there isn't much for us.
I love the typography on the dial. Playful but still classy. Simply a gorgeous watch.
It's a good day when watchfinder releases a new video.
The standard Constellation Globemaster is the only Omega I truly...truly dream about. It's got such an indescribable vibe. 10/10 on the fizz factor scale.
This Omega annual calendar is absolutely stunning. The gorgeous watch dial, the complication and the addition of a display case back is far superior than the more popular branded Rolex. Though, just shy under 7 grand is steep for my standards, it is great value for those that can afford a luxury watch 10 fold than that of this exquisite Omega timepiece. With my collection of vintage watches (Vintage Omega, Timex made in in GB dress watch, vintage Seiko's), each watch under £500, plus few hidden gems such as San Martin 62mas, Russian Vostok, DW5600 G shock and Guanqin gj16034, this Omega is one of my grail watches. Great video, soothing voice as usual :-)
sarfaraz rahman +1 for the display caseback. I doubt I’ll buy another watch without one.
I really love vostok. For £20 you get a really good watch.
Omega is severely underrated in the midst of modern luxury brands, some of which have a heritage of only a decade or so.
I think most Swiss luxury have close to a century of heritage or more
@@lool12366 Not the Swiss. The random adverts you get about overpriced "affordable luxury" watches with long "herirage" on social media. And not even going to touch the sensitive controversy that is RM.
Let's keep it that way and keep Omega relative affordable.
@@sujaysannyamath655 To be fair, it's quite a bit of a stretch to even call those type of watches luxury - the first thing that came to my mind when I read luxury brand watches is Patek Phillipe, A. Lange & Söhne, and such. ;)
I don't think Omega is underrated considering they're one of the top sellers of watches (in terms of benefits) both in Switzerland and world-wide. They're also very well known and have tons of very famous watches. It's just that they're not famous within every crowd, as opposed to Rolex for example.
Beautiful, perhaps the most interesting, insightful watch reviews out there . Not loud but subtle and dignified akin to several of the watches being reviewed. Happy to have subscribed to this channel.
Most Omega's are good value
No watch over $1000 is "value". That's already more than any normal person would spend on a wrist watch.
D M bro you’re so wrong, I know tons of people who bought a watch over $1000, when you go beyond 10-15k that’s when it begins to get rare.
Value is subjective but also based on craftsmanship. It's not any more useful but it's finishing is almost perfect and you're buying heritage behind the brand
@@DM-rc4yu Compared to most luxury swiss brands, Omega offers great value imo. I do not own one because aesthetically I don't like aspects of their watches i.e helium valve on the seamaster. However if you look at Paneria or IWC, Breitling they are priced similarly for much lower specs.
I think his point is that a watch is a watch. A $30 watch does what a $30 watch does. It tells time. While a $10,000 watch does the same thing but for a lot more money that not many folks do not have lying around to just throw around.
That instant date switch at 4:36 from 30th to 1st is amazingly quick!
I love the GM. Such an underrated piece
This is a perfect watch and almost ticks all occasion-wear boxes. What a beautifully crafted and finished watch. Omega is truly a top notch watchmaker brand. If i had this much money i'd definitely buy this.
So much going for it. Love the look of the dial..The strap is a perfect combo with it...
Omega has always been class and bargain
Starting from speedmaster to sea master to the rest
Can u imagine wat Rolex would have priced had their watch been the first moon watch
Bargain? Hardly, just not AS hyped and over priced as some competitors.
Yea, the price would be the moon itself. haha
Rolex would have priced it reasonably, but then not made any, so the artificial scarcity would have the flippers and bundling AD's jumping for joy.
Beautiful watch! Always loved the Omega range, stunning movements and interesting history behind each piece. Please, if possible, can you do a review on the Speedmaster Moonphase Aventurine Blue Side of The Moon. As always, great channel with lots of awesome content.
That dial though, it's just beautiful. I love the Globemaster, the dial, the coin edge bezel, the finishing, and the movement, the movement, is just mesmerising.
Again, another horology class!
Thank you watchfinder!!
It is simply amazing the work you do regarding this timepieces. I believe i speak for most when i say that you are the refference when it come to watch videos and their presentation.
As more i watch your videos, less "watch snobery" i can understand from some People, because theres so much to learn in each watch, in each brand...
Please let us have these close-up shots in 4K
Since they zoom, they’ll need 8k to have the closeups at 4K and that’s allot of disk space and video rendering/processing
@@helmerbrobacke2471 they could use a macro lense, if they aren't already
Always love the globemaster, n always been wondering y is it so under appreciated. The watch is beautiful, n this annual calendar makes me fall in love with it even more. One slight criticism though. For me at least, it looks abit too cluttered with those month markings. I would love it even better if they use the hour markings as the month indicator as well. That way it preserves the clean pristine look of the globemaster.
Thanks for giving us those high qualities videos ! i'm french with not a high level in understanding english but your accent allow me to understand almost everything ! All is structures so it makes all your videos very interesting to watch ! Carry on !
The pie pan dial on the constellation version looks fantastic
I'm not a dedicated watch enthusiast. But I subscribed to this channel because I love the way the information is presented. I also love the music and the beautiful camera angles.
The details on the face are quite lovely. The blue really pops. Great video aga3👍
I like the Globemaster Annual Calendar a lot and have thought of buying one. Only thing holding me back is that even with my modest collection of four watches, I probably wouldn't wear the Globemaster frequently enough to keep it running all the time. So I'd be having to reset the time and date, anyway.
I wore a blue dial Globemaster for 3 years. I loved it. It was the most accurate mech watch I ever owned. I traded in a Rolex OP36mm for it, but I have since sold the Globemaster and went back to a Rolex 116000-0009 as my daily watch. I prefer the simplicity. However, I will say ... I wish Omega would continue this Globemaster line with future iterations that recall the evolution of the original late 60s Constellations and offer an even more refined version that removes the pie pan and allows more choices of dial colors, like sunburst gray/black/etc. I liked the blue sunburst dial, but I didn't love it. That was ultimately the reason I sold it and went back to the steel dial Rolex. If the original model Globemaster from 2016 had a gray dial (that wasn't a $40K platinum elite piece), it would be the perfect Omega, IMO.
Mark Michael that's a narrow minded thing to say, both brands are a very valid choice and you don't Have to pick a side in that sense
@@AriesUmbra he probably doesn't own either
Understated but well concieved and nicely executed timepiece ! And a tribute video well deserved !
Please make a review of the "GRAND RECITAL 22" made by Bovet.
Globemaster should be a top selling watch for Omega, extremely beautiful design, perfection in all details, excellent movement. But I have to admit the Constellation 39 mm blue dial and leather is even more astonishing.
Was going to get the new Aqua Terra world timer. Now I guess I'll have to get this one too. Damn you watchfinder for assaulting my wallet like this!
The world timer is stunning 👍
My thoughts exactly, I love both of them.
Such a beautiful and capable watch. Had I enough money to not feel it, I'd feel it on my wrist. Even, or maybe especially, without the annual calendar, it is pretty pretty. I'm a humble man, and the watch I wear every day is the Sinn 556ib, but as said, were I to want another watch, a tungsten-bezeled globemaster would be near the top of my list. Such a beautiful design. Such a lovely and capable watch.
Thank you for this wonderful review of the Omega Globemaster. Can you please do a review of the green dial ….. Omega Globemaster that recently came out?
A calendar watch, being anual or perpetual, is only really useful when you have 3 watches max. When you have a larger collection (and don't like having your watches on automatic winders) it's not all that useful, specially those vintage pieces with no quickset on the date, since you have to set it every time you wear the watch. I know, you could just set the time and leave the date be... but OCD would not allow me to.
Still, this Omega is such a great piece! Really love those blued indices and hands.
I agree with everything you said, somehow find the watch's design unexciting.
Omega: you buy the watch
Rolex: you buy the brand
For some reason when I see a Rolex on someone I think “is it authentic?” but when I see an Omega I think “nice watch”.
a3zth3tikz even though Omegas are plenty faked as well.
George Yang
I mean there are fakes for everything from Seiko to Vacheron. But between Rolex and Omega, Rolexes are more likely to be questioned regarding their authenticity than Omegas.
When I see someone wearing a Rolex, I think the person doesn't know much about watches and just bought it as a status symbol.
Really a great watch! The color combination you showed is on my list. To me, an almost perfect watch.
Lovely watch. Only downside is the font on the case Bach would have looked better if it matched the font used on the dial calendar. Another one to think about when I retire
Back in the day, Omega watches were always only slightly less expensive than their Rolex counterparts. It's only in the last decade or 2 that Rolex started opening the price gap and priced their watches higher and higher.
Thank you watchfinder !
This, whilst not for me,
is still a nice piece.
Another great video and another beautiful piece.
I love Omega watches. I would love too get this watch in the future
I wish the annual colander version has the quick jump hour function of the normal Globemaster…would really come in handy when travelling.
I really like it the way you portray Thsi it has more life than what i have heard before. Thanks and cheers for all blog
Beautiful watch !
I’m surprised no screw in case back.
Nice review !
Owner of the Omega Seamaster Planet Ocean I am totally satisfied.It is my first choice when I scuba dive the wrecks off North Carolina. Although its range of 2000 feet I will never see I feel it was a great $4500.00 investment. I love the Omega brand as much as my Rolex Submariner which I invested alot more cash than the Seamaster...That said I didn't know much about the Globemaster until I watched this video. I love its design and think it would make a great wear watch. I probably will become serious when I can physically hold this beast in my hand. Thanks for the heads up....Cool...
A watch that is at my personal chrono24 list.
Because Omega is so good, there are always space to add more Omega watches to my collection.
In house movement, quality finish, and it fits like silk on my wrist.
Amazing video, as always
I love your reviews! Big inspiration and I wish I had your voice haha :D
this is the only channel that I want post notifications on for
Same lol. If I could subscribe twice I would!
Thank you man with a wonderful voice!
Please review the Longines Master Collection with moon phase, chronograph, and anual calendar. Thanks!!
Yes I enjoyed it . Had to rush for my drooling bib again. The case back brought back memories of my constellation cal 561 that I gave to a dear friend a few years ago. Your review was stellar as usual. 👍
Holy f**k the second I saw that dial I was inlove, it's so elegant and classy
By the way you put the reference of the grey dial version in the description, the white dial version is 130.33.41.22.02.001
Yes i noticed that too. I was wondering what the silver version looked like. I kind of like this one more but I don't know how dark the other one is without seeing in person. Thinking of buying one online
Please look at the Longines master collection. As they have some master complications on a budget
I used to own an aqua terra annual calendar, whilst great was a bit too thick... great to see it in a globe master a dress watch style. However due to the manufacturing might of the swatch group, the best value annual calendar goes to the longines master collection annual calendar for £1780! 😮
Yup. That Longines Master Collection Annual Calendar is a bargain for a watch with an annual calendar complication. The month readout is also simple and legible as it stated beside the date at the 3 o'clock position.
Beautiful Omega Globemaster Annual Calendar at a nice price. I like the transparent case back of the Omega showing the nice rotor and movement.
have not worn my Rolex Submariner since I got my Omega Globemaster last year. Waiting for my Horage 10th anniversary to see what become my go to watch. Love your in depth reviews and high quality video.
Looks far nicer then a Datejust. It's more elegant.
I have not worn my Rolex Submariner since I got my Omega Globemaster last year. Waiting for my Horage 10th anniversary to see what become my go to watch. Love you in depth reviews.
Real good Watchfinder & Co., Now I have to have this watch!
The bevel at the dial edge really does hit like the old Constellation's
You make some of the best watch content on the internet. Thank you :)
Great video guys
Is there a quick set function for both the month and date?
Finally, you covered the Globemaster!
They've actually already covered it. I went and bought one off the back of the previous video. I love my Globemaster.
your video editing is seamless
Please review the new Seiko Prospex LX with the Spring Drive movement? It is always brilliant when you review Dive Watches!! 👌🏼👌🏼
It's difficult not to be moved by a purchase with these exquisite presentations.
I love the regular version of it ,, the 8922 need to send it back to Switzerland
The font printing on the dial not crisps and it seems the ink smear. Pls confirm. Thanks
that is a whole lot of watch at that price point I hope they release other color combinations of this design
I would very much like to see your review of the Omega Speedmaster 38. Perhaps the Orbis...
This watch is gorgeous. Wish the strap was nicer looking. I’m not a croc guy.
Could you do a video about the Staudt Twenthe Praeludium Automatic?
I was listening to this while browsing Craigslist for used sailboats. It came to my attention that one can score a very nice 25" coastal cruiser for the cost of a very nice watch and I am going to have to think about that.
How about a comparison between machine manufactured watches (eg Omega, Rolex), and hand manufactured ( JLC, A.L &Sohne etc)?
I love the blue on white dial. Great looking watch.
It would be nice if the '5' were in the centre of the date window.
At some point, I started clicking these videos for the narrator rather then the watches.
Love the videos!
Brilliant subject, presentation and production .... I think Omega have just sold one or two more pieces ... Hope you are on commission :)
Im not the biggest fan of this variant, but the globemaster is such a classy timepiece.
Please feature Certina, it offers great build and value for the price too.
Have you ever done an article on the Longines Ephemerides Solaire, if not do you have any information on this unique watch ?
If Someone has a Rolex itch they are always going to scratch it and cant blame them good reliable watches but my money would go Omega more choice better value by far! Great video again!
i think the annual calendar has too much going on on the dial i'd prefer just the regular blue globemaster
The high-def video camera and the large screen that you're viewing this on can be somewhat misleading. In "person," the month labels are not intrusive or prominent at all. They blend into the dial. Someone who's not looking for the month could easily not notice that the script is there.
What about Omega Hourglass? I will be truly glad if you could kindly make a review on that particular watch date or date & day of the week. Many thanks.
Hey dude, have enjoyed your videos for a little while now, just subscribed :) I think it would be really amazing if you could do a video on either the Antoine Preziuso Tourbillon of Tourbillons or any of the Roger Dubuis Excalibur skeleton Tourbillons. Thanks for all the amazing videos!
Please do Review of Blancpain Barakuda. The history of this model is very interesting. Thank you
Looks good! 😍 But a couple of things stops me from buying the watch. 1) the bracelet and clasp, 2) lack of quick set date, and because the hour hand needs to be rotated many revolutions to set the date, I fear for its reliability/ longevity, 3) the 3.5 Hz beat rate not as accurate as Rolex (my 20+ year old speedy pro does 2.8s/d after service by Omega), 4) the 60 hours power reserve is almost half a day less than Rolex. 5) no screw down crown. I have three Rolex already, may be if I have money leftover I might try it on strap or aftermarket bracelet. I might try only because Omega service center near me provides excellent service, otherwise I wouldn’t consider it. Looks good! ❤
Please review the Vacheron Constantin 4000E Fiftysix Complete Calendar Moonphase
can you review the seamster aqua terra worldtimer??
Amazing review
Wasn't sure about this watch when I first saw it, but have to say it's looks have really grown on me. I still think that Omega's most iconic model is the moon watch, so i'd probably go for that if I was in the market for a new Omega.
for an annual calendar, yea that DOES sound like a bargain!
I wish they'd blued those screws in the movement.
Please review the Vagabondage Collection from F.P.Journe. What a delight would be listening!!!
Since you did this, the Vacheron Constantin Fifty Six Complete Calendar 18k should nicely show the other end of the spectrum.
My holy grail.
Do you know if the standard 39mm version also has instant date switching?
Can you tell us more about the TAG Heuer carrera chronograph GMT caliber Heuer 02
