OMEGA PRESENTS SEDNA GOLD
Omega introduces a new alloy that combines gold (75%), copper and palladium. The intense pink colour of Sedna gold results from its admixed copper. The addition of palladium assures that the gold's ruddy hue is especially durable. This alloy, which debuts in the case of the new Constellation Sedna, is named after a distant planetoid with one of the most reddishcoloured surfaces in our solar system. Watches in this line, which debuted in 1952, are distinguished by the polished middle pieces of their cases and by bezels with Roman numerals.
