It was a rainy evening in Bengaluru, but that did little to dampen the spirits of watch connoisseurs who gathered for a very special occasion. WatchTime India, Omega, and Zimson Watches joined forces to host an exclusive showcase of Omega’s latest Seamaster Aqua Terra collection at the brand’s newest—and largest—boutique in the country, located at the Phoenix Mall of Asia.

Guests, comprising seasoned collectors, enthusiasts, and friends of the brand, navigated the city’s infamous traffic and torrential downpour to witness the unveiling of the boutique, which has been designed to reflect Omega’s legacy of innovation and storytelling. The 1300 sq. ft. sprawling space is punctuated with emblems of the Swiss watchmaker, including a striking life-size figure of an astronaut—a nod to Omega’s history with space exploration—and the instantly recognizable Silver Snoopy, symbolic of the award Omega received from NASA, and one that has featured on its Speedmaster. The boutique also houses a private interactive area for collectors to experience watches the watches. 

The highlight of the evening was the new Aqua Terra collection. The boutique’s immersive atmosphere allowed guests to explore not only the Aqua Terra novelties but also some of Omega’s most celebrated creations across its Speedmaster, Constellation, and Seamaster families. 

The evening concluded with conversations, camaraderie, and a shared appreciation for fine watchmaking—proof that for true enthusiasts, a little rain is never an obstacle when it comes to celebrating time. Check out glimpses of the event below.
