Seamaster

The brand's longest continuously produced collection

The Seamaster has existed longer than any other Omega line. It began as a rugged everyday watch, evolved into a professional diver, and has been James Bond's watch since 1995.

History

The evolution of the Seamaster

The Seamaster launched in 1948 to mark the brand's hundredth anniversary, drawing on water-resistant watches Omega had built for the British armed forces during the Second World War.

In 1957 the Seamaster 300 arrived as a professional diver with a rotating bezel, part of the trio alongside the Speedmaster and Railmaster.

In 1993 Omega introduced the Seamaster Diver 300M with its signature wave-pattern dial and helium escape valve at ten o'clock. From GoldenEye in 1995 onward, it became James Bond's watch.

The Seamaster Planet Ocean extended the line upward in 2005; since 2015 most models have carried METAS Master Chronometer certification.

Collector's perspective

What to look for when buying

  1. 01

    The Seamaster is affordably priced while remaining technically current — for many, the best entry point into a mechanical dive watch.

  2. 02

    Vintage Seamaster 300 examples of Ref. CK2913 form a distinct collecting field with sharply risen prices.

  3. 03

    On 1990s Bond references, inspect the aluminium bezel insert. Faded or damaged inserts are common.

  4. 04

    Models from 2018 onward, with ceramic dials and laser-engraved waves, represent a clear step up in finishing over their predecessors.
