Raja Ampat, Indonesia OMEGA SEAMASTER PLANET OCEAN WORLDTIMER
T Travel has always shaped how we measure time. Across hemispheres and cultures, the art of telling time becomes most meaningful when it’s tied to a specific place. Whether pacing the turns of a track during a global sporting event, savoring sun-lit coastal splendor, or crossing multiple time zones en route to a distant destination, the right watch becomes as much a practical tool as a companion. Chronographs record moments that unfold in real time, GMT and world-time functions keep home and away in view, and robust waterproof cases are built to move through changing conditions. These pairings match each timepiece with a destination that reflects its purpose, personality, and sense of adventure. On your next trip, don’t forget the watch. It belongs right alongside your passport, boarding pass, and sunglasses, ready for wherever the journey takes you. TIME WATCHES BUILT FOR THE JOURNEY
Remote and vividly blue, Raja Ampat sits at the crossroads of the Pacific and Indian Oceans, making it one of the world’s premier diving destinations. The Omega Seamaster Planet Ocean Worldtimer feels purpose-built for a place like this, pairing 600 meters of water resistance with a world-time display designed for constant movement across regions. Its turquoise accents echo the surrounding sea, while the global map at the center of the dial emphasizes the idea of exploration. Designed for both coral-rich dives and covering all 24 time zones, the Planet Ocean is ready for underwater exploration and global travel.
Kentucky Derby, Louisville LONGINES MASTER CHRONOGRAPH MOONPHASE In Louisville each May, the Kentucky Derby imbues tradition, spectacle, and southern pageantry, from mint juleps to the thunder of hooves on Churchill Downs. With its intricate mechanics and classic elegance, the rose-gold Longines Master Chronograph Moonphase suits this setting exquisitely. Its moonphase adds poetic cadence to the chronograph’s measured beats, just as the Derby mingles sport with style. Between watching the horses emerge from the gate and enjoying the fashion and festivities, this pairing evokes time well spent in a place where every second — and every stride — carries historic weight.
