OMEGA Seamaster Diver 300M in Green – and Plenty New Colourful Aqua Terras in 38 and 34 mm
In addition to the all-new OMEGA Seamaster Planet Ocean Ultra Deep, the brand is also presenting a green Diver 300M and new variants for the Aqua Terra in 34 mm and 38 mm. While the Diver 300M only gets a new face, the Aqua Terra presents itself in fresh colours on smooth sunburst dials – a premiere. In both cases, however, the tried and tested OMEGA 8800 is at work and the cases also show only minimal changes.
The OMEGA Seamaster Diver 300M in Green
The Diver 300M is now available in trendy olive green. The James Bond watch not only gets a green dial, but also a matching bezel. The latter is made of ceramic and bears the diving scale in white “Grand Feu” enamel. Otherwise, the case shows no other new features. The green ceramic dial has the typical wave pattern and an opening for the date at 6 o’clock. The hands and indices here are generously filled with luminous material to ensure readability even under water.
Meanwhile, the in-house Co-Axial Calibre 8800 powers the OMEGA Seamaster Diver 300M. It offers automatic winding with a power autonomy of 55 hours. In addition, the silicon escapement ensures resistance to magnetic fields. The movement can be viewed through the case back, where the decoration with the wavy Geneva stripes also stands out. The watch appears on the typical Diver 300M bracelet made of stainless steel, but now connected to the case in a new way. Also included is a stepless extension as well as an extension for use over a diving suit. Alternatively, OMEGA offers a green rubber strap.
The OMEGA Seamaster Diver 300M in green is not yet available in stores. Instead, OMEGA is offering a waiting list. However, the price for the watch is already known and is 5,600 euros on the stainless steel bracelet and 5,300 euros for the rubber strap.
The New Colourful OMEGA Seamaster Aqua Terra 38/34 mm
The Seamaster Aqua Terra collection in 38 mm and 34 mm is expanded with new colourful models. The new models move chromatically from water (Aqua) to land (Terra) and in this way the 38 mm pieces present themselves in Atlantic Blue, Bay Green, Sandstone, Saffron and Terracotta. The 34 mm siblings, on the other hand, have more feminine dials in Sea Blue, Lagoon Green, Sandstone, Shell Pink and Lavender.
All the new OMEGA Seamaster Aqua Terra dials are made of brass and are decorated with a sunburst finish from the centre outwards. The hands and indices are of 18 K white gold on the small 34 mm models. With 38 mm cases, they appear rhodium-plated. Both the indices and the hands bear white luminous material that glows blue in the dark. There is also a date at 6 o’clock, which appears on a white disc on all models. Another new feature is that the cases are now completely polished. On the back, however, you can still find the wave décor and the see-through case back.
Inside all the new models is OMEGA’s Co-Axial Master Chronometer calibre 8800 with automatic winding. The maximum power autonomy is 55 hours. The accuracy of -0/+5 seconds per day is guaranteed by the Master Chronometer certificate issued by the METAS Institute. The new Seamaster Aqua Terra 38/34 mm watches are fitted with new stainless steel bracelets with rounded links and a double-folding clasp.
These new models are also not yet available, but according to OMEGA, they will be available “soon”. The price for the new OMEGA Seamaster Aqua Terra in 38 or 34 mm is 6,300 euros.
