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.
Thanks for the great series of pictures. Did you have any favourites from the watches you tried? Did you get to see the new IWC Portuguese perpetual calendars? They have piqued my interest. All the best, Jon
What a fun quest! Question - did you see the portugieser 40 auto in horizon blue? That has been on my mind a lot. I like the 40mm and big sub seconds. I wish a little thinner (11.8 IIRC)- but I guess same as a gmt🤷♂️ the 1921 always looks good too.
Posts like this always make my wallet quiver. That JlC Polaris Chronograph with the silver dial is a highlight. Thanks for sharing.🤙
Were there any that sang to you more than the others? 😉 Thanks for sharing Mark!
If it's okay with you, could you share how much it cost?
Almost as good as being there!
