Seamaster (25528000)

The Omega Seamaster 2552.80.00 stands out for its elegant design, reliable automatic movement, and strong diving capability. It combines luxury and function, offering timeless style, precise performance, and a rich connection to Omega's maritime and Bond heritage.

The Omega Seamaster 2552.80.00 is a striking dive watch that combines functionality with timeless style. Its deep blue wave-patterned dial catches the light beautifully, with bold luminous hour markers and sword-shaped hands that ensure legibility underwater or in low light. The date window at three o'clock adds practical convenience without cluttering the layout. The stainless steel case measures 36mm, giving it a balanced presence on the wrist, while the unidirectional rotating bezel and screw-down crown highlight its diving pedigree. The sapphire crystal offers excellent scratch resistance, and the solid steel bracelet with a secure clasp enhances both comfort and durability.

Inside, this Seamaster houses the Omega calibre 1120 automatic movement. This Swiss chronometer-certified calibre is based on the robust ETA 2892-A2, known for its precision and reliability. Operating at 28,800 vibrations per hour with a 44-hour power reserve, it delivers smooth and accurate timekeeping. The movement features a hacking seconds function and a quickset date mechanism, making it practical for daily use while maintaining the high standards of Omega's mechanical engineering.

The Omega Seamaster 2552.80.00 belongs to the iconic Seamaster Professional 300M line, first launched in the early 1990s. This range gained fame for its combination of professional diving features and refined design, appealing equally to adventurers and watch enthusiasts. It was also popularised by its association with the James Bond films, where similar models appeared on screen. Over the years, the Seamaster 300M has remained one of Omega's best-loved models, admired for its classic aesthetics, technical excellence, and enduring connection to maritime heritage.
