the model to be tough enough to withstand
the pressures of the Marianne Trench but also
added a 25% safety margin, which meant it
can withstand 1,500 atmospheres of pressure.
But CEO Aeschlimann is clear about one thing:
“The Ultra Deep won’t be a once-off phenom-
enon. The technology used in it will be adapted
for other professional watches”.
The case, bezel, caseback and crown are all
made from the same Grade 5 titanium sourced
from the same alloy as the hull of the Limit-
ing Factor. No welds at all were used so that
the thickness could be kept under 28 mm. That
might seem a lot but, at 11,000 metres, the
glass would be enduring 16 tonnes of pres-
sure. For the gasket, molten LiquidMetal was
poured into a machined channel and then the
sapphire crystal compressed into it until the
LiquidMetal cooled to form a very powerful
yet flexible seal. The crown and caseback are
both screwed down and the caseback has a la-
ser-etch expedition logo at its centre. The man-
ta ray-inspired continuous lugs are integrated
into the case but have a gap in the middle for
flex. Omega used the same in-house automaticA destra, il fondello
