Specialist note

Omega's "Art Collection", the artistic interpretation of time, was launched in 1986, characterised by the case backs decorated with "Concrete Art" motifs created by celebrated artists such as Max Bill, Arnaldo Pomodoro, Richard Paul Lohse, Paul Talman etc. The different models were made in limited edition of 999 examples each.

The "Art Collection" and the different models are described and illustrated in Omega - A Journey through Time by Marco Richon, pp. 762 - 764.
