Omega <\/a>endears itself very quickly to fans of horology thanks to its one-two combo of beautifully crafted timepieces and an illustrious history lined with a dose of grandeur. With timepieces that have seen outer space, timed Olympic games, and helped James Bond ice some bad guys, Omega boasts an impressive collection tied to groundbreaking moments in history. While some of the brand\u2019s pieces have all the bells and whistles that attract veterans of horology (for example, this DeVille Co-Axial Rattrapante<\/a>), new collectors will be drawn more to signature Omega timepieces without the high-priced accoutrement. We\u2019ve rounded up the 5 Omega models that won\u2019t break the bank for new collectors who want their own essential Omega.<\/p>\n

\"Omega<\/a>Omega Seamaster Aqua Terra 150M<\/strong>
\nFor new watch collectors who are intimidated by a mechanical movement, the quartz movement in the Seamaster Aqua Terra<\/a> is perfect. This model\u2019s classic, nautical design is a perfect representative of the Seamaster line in general without the lofty price point. The Aqua Terra collection is quite new, having been released in 2002, but it has retained the subtle dressiness of vintage Omega timepieces that has faded into the background with their newer, sportier models in other collections. Its sleek formality and understated sporty edge has a practical sensibility that new horologists will appreciate.<\/p>
