Omega Seamaster Diver 300M – The James Bond Limited Edition Set.
OMEGA are releasing a James Bond Limited Edition set featuring two special Seamaster Diver 300M watches, celebrating the 50th anniversary of ON HER MAJESTY’S SECRET SERVICE, in a Globe-Trotter suitcase. Just 257 of the sets have been created.
A total of 257 sets, encased in a suitcase by the British luxury brand Globe-Trotter and bound by black-and-grey straps, are available worldwide for $42,100, the Swiss luxury watchmaker said.
This Omega Seamaster Diver 300M James Bond Limited Edition Set comprises two watches, identical in shape, details and mechanics, only differentiated by the material of their cases. Almost identical to the Seamaster Diver 300M “On Her Majesty’s Secret Service” 50th Anniversary, the watches included in this set feature the same Bond-movie-intro-inspired dial made of black ceramic, with a spiral-brushed gun barrel design and 9mm bullet head at the centre.
While the regular model in steel featured a date window at 6 o’clock, with the 7th day of the month displayed with a Bond-related font, the watches of this set are no-date models. Also, a small “007” logo is found on the minute track, at 7 o’clock. It features an engraved limited-edition plate on the side made in 18K gold.
The first watch, reference 210.22.42.20.01.003, is made of stainless steel with a black ceramic bezel filled with white enamel for its 60-minute scale. The second model, reference 210.62.42.20.01.001, is presented in an 18k yellow gold case with a black ceramic bezel on which the 60-minute scale is made thanks to Omega’s proprietary technology Ceragold. The limited-edition plate on the caseband is made of 18k white gold.
Both watches are 42mm in diameter and share all technical elements with the regular Seamaster Diver 300M, reviewed here. This means a 300m water-resistance, a conical helium escape valve at 10 o’clock, the signature lyre-shaped lugs and a black rubber strap with steel or gold pin buckle.
Special to this 007 edition, the watches of this Omega Seamaster Diver 300M James Bond Limited Edition Set feature a hidden number 50 within the Super-LumiNova of the 10 o’clock index – a reference to the 50th anniversary of On Her Majesty’s Secret Service (1969) – 18K yellow gold hands and indexes, with a marker at 12 o’clock, inspired by the Bond family coat-of-arms. The caseback is decorated with this crest, metallised in gold and black on the sapphire crystal.
