Launched at Baselworld to mark the 25th anniversary of its model line, the 2018 Omega Seamaster Diver 300m Professional is the watch that Rolex fears most. Unlike Rolex's Submariner, the 2018 Omega Seamaster boasts a diving clasp with both fold-out dive extension and a push-button slider for fine adjustments and precise bracelet sizing. A stunning combination of Omega dive watch packaging skill and detail refinements, the 2018 Omega Seamaster maintains a slim profile of 13.7mm around its Omega caliber 8800 co-axial METAS chronometer movement. The automatic caliber 8800 offers superb durability thanks to a full balance bridge, free-sprung balance, and an Omega Si14 silicon hairspring for anti-magnetic resilience. The Omega's unidirectional dive bezel features a ceramic insert with white lacquered characters; the signature Omega Seamaster Professional helium escape valve has been reprofiled with a conical taper for enhanced elegance. The 2018 Omega Seamaster Diver 300M marks the return of the celebrated "James Bond" Omega wave dial. But unlike the original James Bond Seamaster, the 2018 model features a ceramic dial with laser-cut texture that would have left both Agent 007 and Q Branch deeply impressed. And unlike the Seamaster Professional worn by Pierce Brosnan during his turn as James Bond, the 2018 iteration features a full sapphire display caseback that permits appreciation of Omega's in-house automatic caliber. Each 2018 Omega Seamaster Diver 300M is encased in 42mm of steel surrounding a black dial on a stainless steel bracelet. Functions include hours, minutes, seconds, date, and helium escape valve. The watch also measures 13.7mm in thickness and 50.1mm from lug-to-lug.
