(ATR) TOP sponsor as well as the official timekeeper for the Olympics, Omega, has released a second watch to commemorate the upcoming Winter Games.

As part of the PyeongChang 2018 collection, the newly featured limited edition Seamaster Planet Ocean watch retails at $6,395.

The 43.5mm timepiece is designedwith the colors of the South Korean flag with a blue ceramic dial, red rubber inserts and blue and red straps.

Last year, in celebration of the two year countdown to the Games, Omega released its first watch, the limited edition Seamaster Aqua Terra "Pyeongchang 2018".

The 41mm watch includes a stainless metal bracelet and similar to the Seamaster Planet Ocean has a blue ceramic dial.

Using the five colors of the Olympic Rings, the words "PyeongChang 2018" have been inscribed on the minute track of the watch.

Both watches are presented in their own Olympic themed cases. The back of each also features the PyeongChang 2018 logo.

In addition to the release of the watches, the TOP sponsor has recently unveiled the Olympic countdown clock in Seoul, South Korea as well as in New York's Rockefeller Plaza.

Both clocks are counting down the last year until the Games begin.
