In a quiet unveiling, Omega has launched a new version of the Seamaster Aqua Terra 150M. During a photoshoot celebrating Swedish pole vaulter Armand “Mondo” Duplantis’ world record at the Olympic Games, the athlete wore a previously unseen titanium Seamaster Aqua Terra 150M “Ultra Light” in striking blue and yellow shades, which is now being released as another “Mondo Duplantis Edition.” To the cheers of the crowd, Duplantis broke his own world record with a massive height of 6.25 meters on his final attempt.

Back in June, Omega dedicated a steel version of the Aqua Terra 150M to the exceptional athlete. This version featured a blue dial and a matching strap with yellow accents, representing the colors of Sweden. The newly introduced titanium version emphasizes the lightweight topic?the watch only weighs 55 grams!?and also embraces these primary colors but does so more prominently celebrating the new world record. The 41mm case, with a height of 13.5mm and a water-resistance of 150 meters, is made of sandblasted gamma titanium, complemented by a sandblasted silicon nitride bezel and a recessed crown.
For the blue anodized dial, Omega used sand-blasted Grade 5 titanium with an engraved horizontal stripe pattern in Aqua Terra fashion. In addition to blackened indexes and hour-minute hands coated with Superluminova, there is a yellow lacquered 3D laser-shaped cylindrical central seconds hand inspired by a pole vault.
