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: Is this Seamaster Diver 300M suitable for swimming and diving? A: Yes. The Diver 300M is water‑resistant to 300 metres (30 bar). Before entering water, ensure the crown and the helium escape valve are fully screwed down, avoid operating the crown or pushers under water, and rinse the watch with fresh water after saltwater use. Annual water‑resistance checks are recommended if you swim or dive regularly.
Q: What movement does it use and how accurate is it? A: It is powered by Omega’s Co‑Axial Master Chronometer calibre 8800 with an approximate 55‑hour power reserve. As a Master Chronometer, the fully cased watch is tested for precision, power reserve, water‑resistance and anti‑magnetism; METAS pass criteria for daily precision are 0 to +5 seconds per day, and resistance is certified to magnetic fields of at least 15,000 gauss.
Q: What are the size and fit details? A: Case diameter is 42 mm, thickness approximately 13.6–13.7 mm, and lug‑to‑lug about 50 mm. The between‑lugs width is 20 mm for easy strap changes. This example is currently sized to fit a 21 cm wrist or smaller (see product information for the exact sizing of this item).
Q: What are the dial, bezel and crystal made of? A: The watch features a polished blue ceramic dial with laser‑engraved waves, a blue ceramic unidirectional bezel, a domed scratch‑resistant sapphire crystal with anti‑reflective treatment on both sides, and a transparent sapphire caseback.
Q: How does the bracelet adjust for comfort or a wetsuit? A: The stainless‑steel bracelet uses a foldover clasp with a push‑button comfort micro‑adjust and a diver’s extension for quick sizing changes. Links can be added or removed by a professional to fine‑tune the fit. Refer to the product information for what is supplied with this individual watch.
Q: Do I ever need to use the helium escape valve (at 10 o’clock)? A: Only for professional saturation diving in a helium‑rich environment. For everyday wear, swimming, or recreational diving, keep it fully screwed down. If used, operate it during dry decompression only—never under water.
Q: Can I change the date at any time? A: As a best practice with mechanical watches, avoid using the quick‑set date while the mechanism is engaged around midnight. To be safe, move the hands away from midnight (for example to 6 o’clock) before changing the date, then set the time.
Q: Is the watch anti‑magnetic for daily electronics? A: Yes. As a Master Chronometer, it is tested for resistance to magnetic fields of 15,000 gauss, helping maintain stable timekeeping around laptops, phones, and magnetic clasps.
Q: Any care tips for swimming or daily wear? A: Keep the crown and valve screwed down near water, rinse with fresh water after sea use, avoid extreme temperature changes and strong steam, and have water‑resistance tested periodically—especially if used frequently in water.
Q: How often should it be serviced? A: Service needs depend on use and environment. Omega recommends a complete service roughly every 5–8 years and a yearly water‑resistance check. Always use a qualified watchmaker or authorised service centre.
