Ticking away the moments that make up a dull day won't seem quite so tedious with one of these on your wrist.
Following the success of its 2013 "Dark Side of the Moon" Speedster, Omega has introduced a four-piece collection of brooding timepieces that draws its inspiration from the adventures of the Apollo 8 astronauts, who were the first to orbit the Moon and return home safely; becoming the first humans to directly see the far side of the moon.
The Black Black is, appropriately, the dark lead of the series, with a polished, brushed black ceramic casement and dial partnered by a black nylon strap. The lunar themes slip in on the 'Moonwatch-style' hands of the face and sub-dials.
The Sedna Black and Pitch Black both feature ceramic cases and leather straps; the Sedna offsetting its dark features with 18k gold, while the Pitch picks out its markings with Super-LumiNova details.
The Vintage Black manages to pull off the cardinal fashion sin of mixing black and brown, with varnished hands and a leather strap.
Set to hit stores in August, you can expect each of these to sit within the region of £7,000 - £8,000.

As Content Director of Shortlist, Marc likes nothing more than to compile endless lists of an evening by candlelight. He started out life as a movie writer for numerous (now defunct) magazines and soon found himself online - editing a gaggle of gadget sites, including TechRadar, Digital Camera World and Tom's Guide UK. At Shortlist you'll find him mostly writing about movies and tech, so no change there then.
