In the ever-evolving world of luxury dive watches, few brands command as much respect beneath the waves as OMEGA, and this year, the storied Swiss watchmaker celebrates two decades of its boldest hue. Since the early 2000s, their trademark orange has served both form and function, positing a signature flourish to OMEGA’s dive watch lineup while enhancing underwater visibility for serious divers. Now, OMEGA’s orange resurfaces as part of the refreshed Seamaster Diver 300M collection, presenting a duo of models as eye-catching on a wetsuit as they are under a cuff.

Crafted from stainless steel, the 42 mm watches boast black anodised aluminium bezels and dials with fiery orange accents most notably seen on the central seconds hand, quarter-hour markers, and the iconic Seamaster name printed just below the OMEGA logo. The high-performance aesthetic continues with rhodium-plated, skeletonized hands and indexes filled with white Super-LumiNova. When the lights go down (or you descend below sea level), they emit quite the brilliant blue glow.

Beneath the surface, the watch is powered by the OMEGA Co-Axial Master Chronometer Calibre 8806, visible through the sapphire crystal caseback, and METAS-certified for magnetic resistance, precision, and durability, the 8806 delivers the type of performance demanded by professional divers.

The brand also offers two distinct expressions of this new orange edition: a brushed mesh bracelet and a vibrant, integrated orange rubber strap, underscoring the watch’s sporty DNA. Both versions feature the Diver 300M’s hallmark features—the scalloped unidirectional bezel with a white Super-LumiNova diving scale, a helium escape valve at 10 o’clock, and prominent crown guards—to make a silhouette dive enthusiasts have trusted since 1993.
