The Omega Seamaster Aqua Terra 150M Beijing 2022 pairs a restrained commemorative caseback with a white ceramic dial whose frosted texture is the watch’s defining feature. Reference 522.10.41.21.04.001 is a 41 mm steel special edition—not a numbered limited edition—and should not be confused with the separate Beijing 2022 Seamaster Diver 300M.

What is the Aqua Terra Beijing 2022?

Reference 522.10.41.21.04.001 is the 41 mm Seamaster Aqua Terra 150M created for the Beijing 2022 Winter Games. Omega’s collection page lists it alongside a different commemorative watch, the 42 mm Seamaster Diver 300M. They share the event connection, but their designs and specifications are distinct. Omega’s Beijing 2022 collection

Fratello’s Lex Stolk describes the Aqua Terra as a special edition, not a limited edition. That distinction matters: the name alone does not establish a numbered production run or a particular quantity made. Stolk’s hands-on review, published January 31, 2022

How does the dial and commemorative design look?

White ceramic with a subtle frosted pattern

Omega specifies a white ceramic dial with a special frosted finish and a date display. Stolk found the pattern understated enough that it could be difficult to notice in some conditions. Its effect is less an immediately prominent graphic than a change in texture across an otherwise clean, pale dial.

Red and blue accents

Stolk notes red “Seamaster” lettering and quarter-minute numerals, alongside blue details. In his viewing, the blue hands shifted in appearance with the light, looking vivid blue at some angles and nearly black at others. He also reports that the white Super-LumiNova helps with nighttime legibility. These are the reviewer’s visual impressions, not laboratory measurements.

Commemorative caseback

The Olympic Winter Games Beijing 2022 engraving is on the caseback, keeping the event reference relatively discreet when the watch is viewed from the front. In Stolk’s assessment, the dial treatment and caseback provide the special character; the case, bracelet and movement are not new to this edition.

What is it like to wear?

Stolk describes the case as relatively flat and comfortable, and the steel bracelet as solid and comfortable. He reports no complaints about calibre 8900. Those comments reflect his experience with the watch; they do not establish fit for every wrist, long-term reliability, measured accuracy or performance under water.

How does it differ from the Beijing 2022 Diver 300M?

These are separate watches in Omega’s Beijing 2022 collection. The Diver 300M’s blue wave dial and Olympic-colour minute markers are not features of this Aqua Terra.

Availability and price context

As of the current Omega Hong Kong product page, the Aqua Terra is marked discontinued. That is a regional page status, not a guarantee about availability in every market or from every seller. The page lists HKD 53,100 as catalogue information; it should not be read as a current global resale value. Omega Hong Kong’s product page

Fratello reported a €6,100 price in its January 2022 article. That is a launch-era figure from the time of publication, not a current asking price or market valuation. Fratello, January 31, 2022

For a pre-owned example, assess the individual watch rather than relying on a broad price assumption. Check its condition, service documentation, box and papers, seller reputation, return policy and warranty terms. No current secondary-market price range is established here.

Who is this Aqua Terra for?

The Beijing 2022 edition makes most sense for someone who wants the familiar steel Aqua Terra format with a pale, textured dial and event-specific detail that is not dominant from the front. In Stolk’s account, the frost is subtle and the engraved caseback carries much of the commemorative identity. Buyers seeking the blue wave dial and Olympic-colour markers should look at the separate Diver 300M instead.
