The Omega Seamaster: an icon in design and one of the most iconic watches ever created. Since 1993, the Seamaster Diver 300M has been a staple of Omega’s collection and has recently received some crucial updates to its specs, along with a welcomed and subtly beautiful pop of colour—orange.

Key Features of the OMEGA Seamaster Diver 300M in Orange

Colours like yellow and orange are synonymous with dive watches, both modern and vintage iterations. Over the last 20 years, Omega has implemented orange across different watches and designs, but now it comes home to the Seamaster in a new Black & Orange Seamaster Diver 300M: same iconic design, new colour.

Apart from the orange, what’s new? Updated domed sapphire crystals, new mesh bracelets, and anodized aluminum bezels paired with the new implementation of orange accents around the rectangular markers and orange lollipop seconds hand. These 42mm diving beauties also feature an aluminum dial and rhodium-plated hour and minute hands.

Omega has never veered off the path with the design of the 300M or with its main and most distinguishable features: asymmetrical helium gas escape valve, the scalloped bezel, and protruding crown guards. The Omega Seamaster 300M has remained basically untouched for decades, with slight changes to its aesthetics, making this a classic with something for everyone.

Each Seamaster 300M features the OMEGA Co-Axial Master Chronometer Calibre 8806, which is displayed through the sapphire crystal case back. The Master Chronometer certification ensures excellence in precision, performance, and magnetic resistance, with tests conducted by the Swiss Federal Institute of Metrology (METAS).

Pricing and Availability

The OMEGA Seamaster Diver 300m in Orange retails for $9,300 CAD on the bracelet, and $8,800 CAD on the strap. Please visit the brand website for more details.
