One of the advantages of being an ambassador of Omega like George Clooney or Daniel Craig is that we can wear a Seamaster Aqua Terra in the morning, a Speedmaster Moonwatch in the afternoon, and a globemaster in the evening. In other words, having a watch for all occasions.
What does George Clooney think? The actor who will be 64 years old on May 6, renowned for his style, seems to subscribe to the mantra of the “One and Done”, that is, in a watchmaker, having a single watch adapted to all situations. He recently proved it by going from a game of softball to Central Park to the inauguration of his own portrait in the very chic Sardinian new York restaurant, with only one and the same Omega of the Hour Vision at the wrist.

Strike in a baseball ball and attend prestigious artistic events constitute different situations. But if the actor’s outfit has gone from a combo cap/t-shirt/shorts to a navy blue suit, he kept his watch in place.
It must be said that the Omega de Ville Hour Vision has been designed to be versatile. Appeared in 2007, this 41 mm chronograph with time and date function displays the minutes on the dial with an external ring contrasted in stainless steel – the “railway of the hours”, according to Omega. This characteristic evokes a sports model, but the rest is very dressed, especially when the model has a black leather bracelet. Result: a watch that suits sport as much as to the tasting of a very expensive Negroni … but we bet that this is not the only reason why George Clooney has adopted this model.
“For me, the most unique part is the finish of the case,” explains a specialist, Niels de @watchmypiece. “The horns are different from those of other contemporary omega: they recall those of the vintage omega constellation. This makes me say that George Clooney has good tastes in terms of watches, and that they are certainly not those of the general public.”
