For over three decades, the Seamaster Diver 300M has embodied OMEGA’s DNA: precision, performance, and style made for adventure. First launched in 1993, this watch has established itself as one of the brand’s most iconic pieces, at the crossroads of technical innovation and marine aesthetics. In 2024, OMEGA unveils a bold new Diver 300M collection inspired by the world of 007 and which made a striking appearance on Daniel Craig’s wrist during the Paris Olympics.
A collection marked by Bond heritage and vintage aesthetics
Moving away from the shiny ceramics of previous years, this new series returns to a more raw approach, directly inspired by the Seamaster Diver 300M 007 Edition worn in No Time To Die.
In true 007 spirit, the 42 mm cases now feature domed sapphire crystal, giving the piece a distinct retro look, while the mesh bracelets (also inherited from the Bond model) add an adventurous yet elegant touch.
The collection includes several variations, notably stainless steel models with wave-engraved black aluminum dials or brushed dials with PVD coating. But without a doubt, the standout version of this iconic watch is the new Seamaster Diver 300M in Grade 2 Titanium and Bronze Gold, featuring a green aluminum dial – a configuration that is both technically and visually striking, designed for watch lovers with bold character.
A deep green, blending sophistication and performance
This matte, intense green is not just an aesthetic choice – it also highlights the contrast between materials, between the subtlety of brushed titanium and the refined elegance of Bronze Gold.
This hue appears not only on the dial but also on the anodized and oxidized aluminum bezel, whose luminescent diving scale features a retro design. The black indices are filled with vintage-style Super-LumiNova, reinforcing the connection between past and present.
The Bronze Gold components – bezel, crown, helium escape valve, and hands – have been treated to develop a natural patina over time, while remaining hypoallergenic and oxidation- resistant thanks to the absence of nickel and iron. A subtle balance of cutting-edge innovation, technical materials, and timeless aesthetics.
Each model is available either with a mesh bracelet or a green rubber strap with deployant Clasp, a dual offering between urban sophistication and adventurous charm.
At the heart of the machine: an exceptional calibre
As some would say, at OMEGA, style goes hand in hand with performance. The entire collection is powered by the Co-Axial Master Chronometer Calibre 8806, visible through the sapphire caseback. Certified by METAS, this movement ensures high chronometric precision, resistance to magnetic fields up to 15,000 gauss, and durability fit for the most extreme conditions.
