THE OMEGA SPEEDMASTER HB-SIA GMT: THE SUN WILL SHOW US THE WAY!

October 26, 2020 By mysun08481 Off

The Solar Impulse project captured the world’s imagination with its ambitious aim of flying around the Earth in a plane powered only by the sun’s energy. The prototype plane, referred to by its registration number, HB-SIA, demonstrated convincingly that the plane’s innovative technology and the team’s vision were equal to the challenges of a round-the-world journey.
“OMEGA actively participates in the Solar Impulse project as a Main Partner…”
OMEGA AND SOLAR IMPULSE
OMEGA REPLICA WATCH is a Main Partner and provided key technology to HB-SIA including a test bench, a lightweight landing light system and the OMEGA Instrument, a device that helps pilots maintain the plane’s stability on approach and landing. The brand has made additional contributions to the prototype’s successor, HB-SIB, the plane used in the circumnavigation of the globe.
THE SPEEDMASTER HB-SIA GMT CHRONOGRAPH
The REPLICA OMEGA Speedmaster HB-SIA GMT takes inspiration from the design and materials of the Solar Impulse prototype. The 44.25 mm case is crafted from titanium and the caseback is distinguished by a colourful, etched Solar Impulse patch. The dial is made of black carbon fibre similar to the HB-SIA’s composite covering. A central GMT hand, which completes one rotation in 24 hours, can be used to read a second time zone.
A BOLD RUBBER STRAP
The specially designed rubber strap has a distinctive, textured finish on the inside, reminiscent of Solar Impulse’s carbon fibre-honeycomb composite structure. The strap comes in black, which perfectly matches the dial, or in orange, complementing the subtle ochre HB-SIA lettering on the dial and the designation, “TACHYMETER BASE 1000” on the titanium bezel.
A TIMELESS TITANIUM BRACELET
The OMEGA Speedmaster HB-SIA GMT is also offered with a matching titanium bracelet. Titanium’s light weight allows optimal wearer comfort and its strength makes it particularly resistant to corrosion.
