Since 1993, the Seamaster Professional Diver 300M has enjoyed a legendary following. Now, 25 years later, a bold new collection has arrived.

In 2018, 25 years after the launch of the Seamaster Professional Diver 300M (1993), Omega is unveiling a complete facelift of this famous watch that ignited the brand’s long-standing partnership with James Bond. A bold new collection has just arrived, with 14 unique models, including 6 in stainless steel and 8 in a mix of stainless steel and gold.

Now sized at a larger 42 mm, each new Diver 300M has been given a Master Chronometer Calibre 8800, instantly taking the collection into a higher realm of precision, performance and magnetic resistance.

Every detail of the outward design has also been rethought, including the iconic diving bezel, which is now made from ceramic with the diving scale in Ceragold™ or white enamel (for longer-lasting whiteness and durability).

The dials are also made from polished ceramic and are available in black, blue or PVD chrome colour. Most notably, Omega has reintroduced the wavy pattern (now laser-engraved) that was a popular feature of the original design.

All indexes have been raised and filled with Super-LumiNova and the date window has been moved to 6 o’clock. Even the skeleton hands (rhodium-plated, 18K gold, or blued) have been subtly reshaped, which fans of the model will surely notice.

One of the Diver 300M’s most important details has always been its helium escape valve. For the new models, the valve has been given a conical shape and has been patented by Omega with an ingenious technology that allows it to be operated underwater.

Turning the watch over reveals a wave-patterned edge on the caseback, as well as sapphire crystal, through which you can see the METAS-approved movement.

Each Seamaster Diver 300m model is presented on a traditional iconic metal bracelet or an integrated black or blue rubber strap. The metal bracelets feature a new ergonomic design and have been closely integrated to the case. They also include Omega’s patented extendable foldover rack-and-pusher with a helpful diver extension.
