Like its predecessors, this new Seamaster Diver 300M is powered by a METAS Master Chronometer-certified caliber 8806 automatic movement with a 55-hour power reserve.
While the two base strap options look great, if I were dropping $6,500 on this beautiful watch, I would spare an additional $190 to get Omega’s black and orange nylon NATO strap.
It brings the look even closer to the Speedmaster “Ultraman,” which came on a similar strap, and creates the best-looking version of this watch, in my opinion.
Following in the wake of two precious metal-laden references with prices that topped five figures, it is nice to see a more approachable and pragmatic Seamaster Diver 300M.
Last year, my colleague Johnny Brayson correctly predicted that this NTTD-inspired direction was the future of the Seamaster Diver 300M series, and man, the future looks bright.
