NEW LAUNCH GLOBAL

Continuing the launch of OMEGA’s latest Seamaster Diver 300M collection, a new edition is now unveiled in Grade 2 Titanium and Bronze Gold. This special model follows the stainless steel versions recently released by OMEGA and gives fans another distinctive choice within the metallic range.
In keeping with the latest Diver 300M update, the new watch moves away from the familiar ceramic style of recent years – and instead – takes inspiration from the Seamaster Diver 300M 007 Edition, which was worn in the James Bond film, No Time To Die. Most notably, the timepiece includes the same domed sapphire crystal, giving it a vintage aesthetic, while the green aluminium dial is presented alongside the same mesh bracelet style of the Bond watch.
This brushed mesh bracelet, and the 42 mm brushed case, are both crafted in Grade 2 Titanium, which is renowned for being lightweight, corrosion-resistant, biochemically inert, and able to withstand extreme temperatures. For this reason, it’s a material often used in the aircraft and spacecraft sectors. Perfect for adventurous and sporty pursuits, it offers a dim grey colour that most naturally suits a brushed finish.
In captivating contrast, OMEGA’s exclusive Bronze Gold is used for the bezel, crown, helium escape valve, and the PVD bronze gold coating on the hands. This unique alloy was designed to retain its natural patina over time, without turning green due to layer oxidation. As well as offering that long-lasting soft pink hue, it is nickel-free, making it anti-allergenic, and iron-free, improving magnetic resistance.
The combination of these two materials is complemented by the use of green aluminium. This includes the dial, with blackened indexes filled with vintage Super-LumiNova, and the oxalic anodized aluminium bezel ring, with its diving scale also in vintage Super-LumiNova.
Inside the watch, and visible through the caseback’s sapphire crystal, the Co-Axial Master Chronometer Calibre 8806 guarantees the Swiss industry’s high standard of precision, performance, and magnetic resistance, as certified by the Swiss Federal Institute of Metrology (METAS).
Customers can choose this model on its mesh bracelet, or alternatively, on an integrated green rubber strap with foldover clasp.
