The Omega Seamaster Professional 300M “Bond,” reference 2531.80.00, is one of the most iconic models from the Swiss brand, renowned for its association with James Bond, portrayed by Pierce Brosnan in the 1990s. This model has captivated watch enthusiasts and fans of the legendary secret agent alike, thanks to its distinctive design and robust build quality.
The Seamaster 2531.80.00 features a 41mm stainless steel case with a relatively slim profile, making it comfortable to wear. The unidirectional rotating bezel in blue matches the dial and includes a white minute scale, ideal for diving. The wavy blue dial is especially elegant and adds a touch of visual depth. The indices and hands are coated with luminescent material, ensuring excellent readability even in low-light conditions.
This model is powered by the Omega caliber 1120, an automatic movement based on the famous ETA 2892-A2, modified by Omega to achieve exceptional precision and reliability.
Beyond its distinctive aesthetics, the Seamaster “Bond” 2531.80.00 is renowned for its functionality as a diving watch. It has a water resistance of 300 meters (1,000 feet), a helium escape valve at 10 o’clock, and a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal that protects the dial. The stainless steel bracelet with a deployant clasp offers security and stability, even during dives.
The Seamaster’s appearance in films like “GoldenEye” and subsequent James Bond titles propelled this model to international fame. Omega chose the Seamaster for its historical connection with the British Navy, making it an ideal watch for a character like James Bond.
The Seamaster 2531.80.00 is much more than a “Bond watch”; it represents a fusion of elegance and functionality, quality, and design. It is still sought after today by collectors and enthusiasts alike, both for its timeless aesthetic and the reliability of its movement.
