A new gold watch created by Omega has been described as having a "functional attitude", despite its luxurious nature.

ViaLuxe noted that the brand's Seamaster Aqua Terra Chronograph is an 18-c gold timepiece that is likely to appeal to the high-end market.

The watch features gold hands and a new Omega dial that is intended to resemble wooden planks on yachts.

According to the portal, its functionality will be appreciated despite the fact that it is a lifestyle piece.

"The watch falls heavily in the direction of the person who wants an expensive watch from a brand they recognise, but that won't disappoint brand loyalists," it added.

ViaLuxe recently revealed that a unique gold watch had been specially created by Omega for an upcoming charity auction.

The model is a special version of the brand's Ploprof and will go on sale at the Only Watch event in Monaco on September 24th.
