An ideal companion for coastal getaways, sailing weekends or a smart business lunch, the Omega Seamaster Diver 300M 41mm with blue dial moves effortlessly from desk to deck, elevating both weekday tailoring and relaxed weekend attire.
Please note that the majority of our items are vintage and therefore have tales to tell unless stated otherwise. Therefore, please look at pictures, descriptions and measurements provided as they give you the best idea of the story this item has to tell.
* Please note that when you buy a vintage product, the dimensions may vary slightly from a new one depending on previous care and storage.
Q: What movement does this Seamaster Diver 300M use, and what is the power reserve? A: It is powered by Omega’s automatic Co‑Axial calibre 2500, a COSC‑certified chronometer with an approximate 48‑hour power reserve.
Q: Is this watch suitable for swimming and diving? A: Yes. The Diver 300M is rated to 300 metres. Ensure the crown is fully screwed down, avoid operating it underwater, and rinse the watch with fresh water after swimming—especially after contact with saltwater or chlorinated water. For ongoing safety, have the water resistance checked annually.
Q: Do I ever need to use the helium escape valve? A: Only during professional saturation diving in helium‑rich environments. For everyday wear, swimming, or recreational diving, keep it closed—you don’t need to operate it.
Q: Does this model have a ceramic bezel and sapphire crystal? A: Yes. It features a blue ceramic unidirectional rotating bezel and a domed, scratch‑resistant sapphire crystal with anti‑reflective treatment.
Q: What are the size and fit details? A: The case is 41 mm in diameter with a 20 mm lug width. As currently configured, the bracelet fits wrists up to approximately 20.5 cm; links can be added or removed for sizing.
Q: How does this 41 mm model differ from the later 42 mm Master Chronometer version? A: The 41 mm uses calibre 2500 (chronometer) and a smooth glossy blue dial, while the 42 mm models introduced in 2018 use calibre 8800 with Master Chronometer certification and a laser‑engraved wave dial. Both offer 300 m water resistance and a helium escape valve.
Q: How accurate should it run? A: As a COSC‑certified chronometer, the expected average performance is within −4 to +6 seconds per day. Real‑world results vary by wear pattern; a watchmaker can regulate it if needed.
Q: What maintenance do you recommend? A: Omega advises a water‑resistance check once per year and a complete service approximately every 5–8 years. Avoid extreme temperatures (saunas, hot tubs), and prolonged contact with solvents, detergents, perfumes or cosmetics. Rinse with fresh water after sea bathing.
Q: Can I change the strap? A: Yes. The 20 mm lug width makes it compatible with a wide range of straps and bracelets. A professional watchmaker can help with fitting and to preserve water resistance.
Q: What is included with this piece? A: This example comes as a full set. Everything included—such as the box, outer box, certificate and booklet—is listed under product information; if an item isn’t listed there, it is not included.
