As one of golf’s most decorated players, McIlroy has long time been a watch guy. His brand of choice? Omega. “They’re a brand that celebrates both innovation and tradition, just like golf,” Rory has said in interviews.
Omega CEO Raynald Aeschlimann has echoed the sentiment, calling golf “a sport of discipline and finesse, perfectly aligned with our brand’s DNA.” Whether at Augusta or Royal Portrush, McIlroy’s wrist tells time the Omega way, measured, reliable, and always with purpose.
Omega Speedmaster “Silver Snoopy Award” 50th Anniversary
You couldn’t have scripted it better. As Rory slipped on the green jacket at Augusta and completed golf’s elusive career Grand Slam, his wrist was already making headlines. The Speedmaster Silver Snoopy Award 50th Anniversary is a red hot piece with its blue ceramic bezel, laser-engraved silver dial, and a caseback that animates Snoopy orbiting the moon whenever the chronograph runs.
The hand-wound Calibre 3861, METAS-certified movement that’s both nostalgic and accurate as heck. It’s not just a watch, it’s Omega’s legacy, and Rory’s too now. (Ref: 310.32.42.50.02.001)
Omega Speedmaster ’57 “Rory McIlroy” Special Edition
This isn’t just another Speedmaster, it’s Rory’s Speedmaster. Omega quietly released this solid 18K yellow gold ‘57 model to commemorate his course record 61 at Royal Portrush. You’ll find the digits ‘16’ and ‘61’ subtly hidden in the subdials under UV light—an easter egg for those in the know.
Powered by the automatic Calibre 9301 with Co-Axial escapement and a Si14 balance spring, this 41.5mm stunner is as mechanically impressive as it is symbolic. Champagne dial, gold bracelet, transparent caseback. The man’s got taste. (Ref: 331.50.42.51.08.001)
Omega De Ville Tourbillon Co-Axial Master Chronometer
When Rory goes full dress watch, he doesn’t half-step. The De Ville Tourbillon is peak haute horlogerie—a central tourbillon housed in a 43mm case blending Omega’s own Sedna™ and Canopus™ golds. Black PVD dial, hand-wound Calibre 2640, power reserve on the caseback.
Everything about this watch screams “grail piece,” from the mirror-polished bridges to the fact that each one is individually numbered. He wore it to the CJ Cup in 2021, and it upstaged the leaderboard and winner… him. (Ref: 529.53.43.22.01.001)
Omega Seamaster Aqua Terra Ultra Light
This one was built with Rory in mind. In green of course. The Seamaster Aqua Terra Ultra Light is the stealth tech of the Omega lineup. Gamma titanium case, telescopic crown, and a featherweight 55 grams make it the ultimate athlete’s watch. Inside is the Calibre 8928 Ti, a titanium version of Omega’s METAS-certified movement, tuned for severe abuse.
Rory’s worn it in practice rounds and press conferences alike. It disappears on the wrist until someone asks what it is and then it steals the show. (Ref: 220.92.41.21.06.003)
Omega Seamaster Diver 300M Co-Axial Master Chronometer
The most versatile piece in Rory’s rotation is also the one most of us could realistically get our hands on. The Seamaster Diver 300M in stainless steel with a green ceramic bezel is a modern tool watch done right. Laser-engraved wave dial, helium escape valve, and the OMEGA Master Chronometer Calibre 8800 ticking inside. It’s water-resistant to 300 metres, but that’s just a bonus when your ball goes into the water hazard.
For Rory, the everyday beater still turns heads at a pro-am or on the podium. (Ref:
