As deep as it gets

Producing a professional divers’ watch is all in a day’s work for OMEGA, but to create a timepiece suitable for The Five Deeps Expedition required an entirely different level of ingenuity. The world’s first manned expedition to the deepest point in each of the five oceans, Five Deeps is the brainchild of adventurer and Seamaster wearer Victor Vescovo.

In May 2019, Victor successfully piloted his deep submergence vehicle Limiting Factor to the bottom of Challenger Deep within the Pacific Ocean’s mysterious Mariana Trench. A record-breaking dive of 10,925m.

Along for the ride - and performing perfectly under extraordinary pressure - was not one but three of OMEGA’s depth-defying timepieces. OMEGA is justifiably proud of the Seamaster Planet Ocean Ultra Deep, as its design takes the dive watch to a new level.
