Introduction to Michael Phelps
Michael Phelps is a name that needs no introduction in the world of sports. As the most decorated Olympian in history, he has won a total of 28 medals, 23 of which are gold. But besides his achievements in the pool, Michael Phelps is also known for his love of luxury watches. His collection boasts timepieces from some of the most prestigious brands in the market, including Rolex, Panerai, and Audemars Piguet. However, Phelps's favorite brand seems to be Omega. He has been an ambassador for the brand since 2004 and has been spotted wearing the Seamaster Planet Ocean and the Seamaster Diver 300M. In fact, he even helped design a limited-edition Seamaster Planet Ocean Chronograph to celebrate his last Olympic games in 2016. For watch enthusiasts and fans of Michael Phelps alike, his watch collection is a sight to behold. With Omega and other high-end brands gracing his wrist, it's no wonder he has such an eye for excellence.

Inserted 25/12/2022
This isn't just a sponsored placement — Omega created this exact Planet Ocean variant in collaboration with Michael Phelps himself, making the blue-and-orange colorway a deliberate nod to his University of Michigan athletic colors. The 45.5mm steel case houses the COSC-certified Cal. 9301 column-wheel chronograph movement with Co-Axial escapement and 60-hour power reserve. Water-resistant to 600 metres, it pairs a ceramic blue bezel with orange accents and a white 'Michael Phelps' dial — a rare factory-spec celebrity collaboration that goes well beyond a simple ambassador watch.

Inserted 04/12/2022
The Omega Seamaster Diver 300M Tokyo 2020 edition carries a red 'Seamaster' inscription on its blue ceramic bezel — a deliberate nod to the red, white, and blue palette of the Tokyo 2020 Olympic emblem. Reference 522.30.42.20.04.001 pairs that bezel with a textured blue ceramic dial and is powered by Omega's Co-Axial Master Chronometer Calibre 8806, certified to -0/+5 seconds per day. Few wrists suit this watch better than those of Michael Phelps, the most decorated Olympian in history with 28 medals across four Games.
Michael Phelps Spotted Wearing Omega Speedmaster Moonwatch 'Dark Side of the Moon' Ref. 311.92.44.51.01.003
Inserted 30/11/2022
The Omega Speedmaster 'Dark Side of the Moon' ref. 311.92.44.51.01.003 was among the first Speedmasters to feature a full black ceramic case — a technical leap that redefined what the iconic Moonwatch could be when it debuted in 2013. The dial, bezel, and case are all crafted from zirconium oxide ceramic, giving it a monolithic, space-black presence that stands apart from the classic steel Moonwatch. Olympic swimming legend Michael Phelps, a long-standing Omega ambassador, was spotted wearing this striking piece — a fitting choice for an athlete synonymous with pushing human limits.
