Introduction of Omega Specialities Steel Chronometer CK 859 Watch Replica
One of several new models previewed by OMEGA in Miami recently stood out among the Deep Dive Ultra Deep and the increasingly colorful Aqua Terras and Speedmasters. It is the new replica Omega Specialities Steel Chronometer CK 859 511.12.39.21.99.002, a classically-minded and relatively modest model that achieves something extraordinary in a room full of bright and noisy sports watches - and stands out for its subtlety.
The Dial
I am sure that OMEGA also chose the CK 859 because of its attractive fan-shaped dial. OMEGA has honored this dial in a great way. The new replica Omega Specialities CK 859 features a dial made of sterling silver, giving it a perfect surface appearance. The mix of brushed lugs and polished bezel helps to add some complexity to support the scalloped dial. In daylight, the silver is a warm color and has a very fine matte finish. Thankfully, for a dial that otherwise feels fairly flat, the sub-second display sits on an inset subdial that helps create a sense of depth despite the dial design being mostly painted.
The hands are bright blue if held up to the available light, but appear darker in most cases. In any case, the legibility is excellent thanks to the dial's light color palette and scalloped layout, and the vibe is totally old-fashioned, all the way down to the vintage-style dial signature.
The Case
This new model is hand-wound, 39 mm wide, with a steel case, 20 mm lugs, 30 m water resistance and a lovely 1930s-inspired scalloped dial made of Ag 925 silver. the replica CK 859 with blued steel hands and anti-reflective sapphire crystal is 11.7 mm thick and measures 46.2 mm lug to lug.
The 2022 CK 859 replica is only slightly larger than the usual size of approximately 37 mm of the old CK 859 example, which was directly inspired by the 1939 OMEGA watch with its hand-wound case and small seconds display.
The Movement
The CK 859 replica uses OMEGA's caliber 8926, a hand-wound movement with a frequency of 3.5 Hz, a double barrel providing a 72-hour power reserve, a free-spring balance and the OMEGA Co-Axial escapement. Like most of OMEGA's current lineup, the 8926 is a METAS-certified Master Chronometer capable of withstanding magnetic fields of up to 15,000 Gauss. The movement is visible through the bright caseback and, thanks to the absence of a winding rotor, we have a good view of the movement's construction and finishes, which show rhodium-plated and arabesque Côtes de Genève.
The Strap
The strap is very comfortable and perfect for the vintage image of the watch. Speaking of that vintage image, the buckle is adorned with the applied and period-correct vintage Omega logo. Incidentally, the same historical logo is engraved on the crown and printed on the dial.
The new replica Omega CK 859 looks very comfortable. I can imagine that this is a watch that many people will like. Finally, the price is 6,800 euros including VAT.
