I have had a pleasant, watch related stroll through town today (day off) and was truly surprised at the Omega Boutique that the just presented Seamaster 300m Commander's Watch was already on sale, mere days after being presented. 

So here it is:



Based on a staple of the Omega collection it features some added design elements, like the ceramic bezel, NATO and bracelet combination, a 007 seconds hand counterweight and a James Bond themed rotor amongst others. 

Whether the Bond theme is too strong will be up to everyone's personal taste of course. The design says 1990s to me but then for someone coming of age in that decade, that's not a bad thing 😉

And it's much thinner than current dive watches (although the NATO negates some of that), which I truly like. 

I do not strictly need a dive watch at the moment but to make Nilo happy, some other Omega goodies came with. More on the first Omega watch coming soon, too 👍🏻

But back to the Commander's Watch, what's your take?

About the Omega Seamaster Ref. 007Edition

The Omega Seamaster 007 Edition, reference 210.92.42.20.01.001, distinguishes itself within the Seamaster Diver 300M collection through its specific aesthetic and material choices. This particular reference offers a distinct interpretation of the Seamaster Diver 300M, setting it apart from standard production models with its unique dial and bezel execution, and the use of lightweight titanium for both the case and bracelet. It represents a focused design within the broader Seamaster lineage.

This edition features a 42mm case crafted from grade 2 titanium, paired with a domed sapphire crystal that enhances its vintage-inspired appearance. The watch is powered by the Omega Co-Axial Master Chronometer Calibre 8806, an automatic movement certified to meet the industry's highest standards of precision, chronometric performance, and magnetic resistance. It offers a power reserve of 55 hours and is water-resistant to 300 meters.

This reference appeals to collectors seeking a Seamaster Diver 300M with a specific material and color palette. Its cohesive design, from the tropical brown dial to the titanium mesh bracelet, creates a unified presentation. The absence of a date complication further contributes to its clean and symmetrical dial layout, a detail often appreciated by enthusiasts.

There's a lack of "Bond appeal" for me. It's too Pepsi rather than Martini in my opinion 🍸 😉

Just my feeling. Best wishes Alkiro

Hear you 😉

Maybe it's more the 21st century Bond, who's a teetotaller? 😉
