Background of the Seamaster Line

Omega launched the Seamaster line in 1948 to commemorate the brand's 100th anniversary. Originally, the Seamaster was a civilian model inspired by the waterproof wristwatches used by the British military during World War II. It quickly gained popularity for its reliability in harsh conditions.

Introduction of the Diver 300M

In 1993, Omega introduced the Seamaster Diver 300M collection. This series combined advanced water resistance with robust construction and was embraced by professional divers and enthusiasts. The Diver 300M gained major popularity when it appeared in the 1995 James Bond film GoldenEye, worn by Pierce Brosnan, setting the stage for the Bond and Omega partnership that continues today.
