Omega Seamaster Aqua Terra “Mondo” Duplantis Limited Edition Timepiece Celebrates Pole Vaulting

OMEGA celebrates pole vault world record with Seamaster Aqua Terra “Mondo” Duplantis Limited Edition

The world of pole vaulting has a new king – Armand “Mondo” Duplantis. The Swedish athlete continues to push the boundaries of his sport, most recently setting a new world record of 6.24m on April 20th, 2024. To commemorate this extraordinary achievement, OMEGA has released a stunning new limited edition timepiece – the Seamaster Aqua Terra “Mondo” Duplantis.

Inspired by the Olympic and World Champion

As an OMEGA brand ambassador since 2020, Mondo Duplantis has been making waves in athletics with his relentless pursuit of excellence. His impressive list of accolades includes multiple World and European Championship titles, an Olympic gold medal from Tokyo 2020, and now, a record-breaking 8th world record in pole vaulting.

OMEGA was on-site at the Diamond League meet in Xiamen, China, to witness Duplantis soar to new heights with his 6.24m jump. Fittingly, the Swiss watchmaker has captured this momentous occasion in a special edition Seamaster Aqua Terra.

Seamaster Aqua Terra “Mondo” Duplantis: A Tribute to Excellence

The 41mm stainless steel case of the Seamaster Aqua Terra “Mondo” Duplantis is complemented by an integrated blue rubber strap with yellow stitching – a nod to the colors of the Swedish flag. The polished and brushed surfaces of the case blend seamlessly with the polished central links of the strap, creating a cohesive and sophisticated look.

On the opaline blue dial, horizontal stribes provide a subtle backdrop for the unique tributes to Duplantis. The Seamaster name and quarter-hour numerals are rendered in vibrant yellow, while the varnished central seconds hand takes on a pole vault-inspired shape, complete with Super-LumiNova on top to represent the grip of the pole.

Precision and Performance at the Highest Level

As an athlete who understands the importance of precision, Mondo Duplantis will appreciate the Co-Axial Master Chronometer calibre that powers this special edition timepiece. This movement ensures unparalleled accuracy, performance, and magnetic resistance – qualities that are essential in the world of professional sports.
