N1Factory has released its latest masterpiece: the Omega Dark Side of the Moon series. This exquisite replica continues to write its legendary saga, perfectly crafted to match the original.
At the heart of this design lies the self-developed N1 9300 movement, featuring a 12-hour and 30-minute chronograph sub-dial at the 3 o’clock position. Each function and the exterior are modeled precisely 1:1 with the original.
The N1 Dark Side watch is crafted entirely from ceramic components, all sourced from Korea. The production process is challenging due to the complexity and cost, resulting in limited output. N1Factory has spent two years perfecting the color and shine to match the original, showcasing that persistence pays off.
The technical intricacies of this watch are evident in its balanced, 44.25mm matte polished ceramic case, which offers a distinct depth and sharp edges. The brushed case is complemented by a polished ceramic bezel that features the iconic tachymetric scale, adding a striking contrast.
The aesthetically refined ceramic dial undergoes polishing before being set onto a copper base. It is then printed and baked to ensure seamless blending with the 18k gold markers, complete with Swiss-imported luminescence to match the genuine article.
This innovation is highlighted by the absence of an inner shell or threads, following the original production process with a high level of difficulty and revolutionary techniques.
The full ceramic buckle adheres to the original design showcasing crisp edges and brushed lines, paired with a durable nylon strap for easy wear and brilliance. N1Factory proves yet again that ‘N1 quality stands for excellence.’
