Now, though, the brand takes expertise just a few steps further. The brand new Omega Co-Axial Grasp Chronometer Caliber 2640 that powers this watch is a Master Chronometer- a certification Omega created about five years in the past that checks the Seakors Watch below excessive circumstances much more superior than the everyday chronometer standards. The requirements are accredited by the Swiss Federal Institute of Metrology (METAS). Omega was the first brand to attain this certification, and uses it for its Co-Axial chronometers. This Master Chronometer status attests to the precision and performance of the timepiece. It marks the first time that a one-minute tourbillon cage (that means the tourbillon rotates once each minute) can proceed to work when subjected to a magnetic area of 15,000 gauss. It even shows the shifting seconds.
