The short answer: On October 5, 2026 — Global James Bond Day — Omega released six new Seamaster Diver 300M watches, split down the middle between James Bond and his archenemies, Spectre. Two are stainless-steel editions you can actually walk in and buy: the Bond Edition (ref. 210.30.42.20.03.004) and the Spectre Edition (ref. 210.30.42.20.01.023), both not limited and priced at $8,600. The other four live in two boxed sets of 77 pieces each — one Bond, one Spectre — pairing a steel watch with a platinum-gold one for $89,800 per set.
For thirty-one years, Omega has only ever dressed the good guy. This time it's handing the villains a watch too. 007 wants his Seamaster back — but now Blofeld's people want one as well.
Bond fans are in a strange spot right now. There's no new film on the calendar, and the internet is still loudly arguing about who should be the next 007. Omega didn't wait. Instead of tying a watch to a movie, it built a collection around a question: whose side are you on?
The tease was half the fun. In the week before launch, Omega's Diver 300M page kept swapping the Omega logo for the Spectre octopus every few seconds — the kind of Easter egg collectors screenshot and share. The watch press picked up the theme fast, with headlines calling Omega a "double agent."
And it caps a big Bond year for the brand. Earlier in 2026, Omega released the Seamaster Diver 300M Chronograph 007 First Light, tied to the new video game — the first chronograph in the Bond Diver 300M's history. Today's release brings the focus back to the classic three-hand diver.
This is the one on our Instagram, and it reads like a sequel to the 2022 60 Years of James Bond edition. The dial is blue aluminum with laser-engraved waves — a direct nod to the 1990s Seamaster Professionals Pierce Brosnan wore starting with GoldenEye. At 12 o'clock, the Bond coat of arms replaces the usual marker.
Spectre gets exactly the look you'd expect from a shadowy criminal organization: black on black. The dial is black aluminum with a grainy, textured finish, matched by a black ceramic bezel insert with the dive scale in raised relief.
Fun bit of trivia: Omega did make a "Spectre" watch before — the 2015 Seamaster 300 Spectre limited edition. But that was named after the film and worn by Bond himself. This is the first time Omega has designed a Diver 300M for the other team.
For collectors with a much bigger budget, Omega built two presentation sets, each numbered to 77. Every set contains a steel watch (identical to the regular edition, plus a numbered plate on the case side) and a second watch in Omega's platinum-gold alloy on a glossy alligator strap.
The platinum-gold pieces are the showstoppers: solid white gold guilloché dials — a gun-barrel pattern under gradient blue for Bond, an octopus-inspired pattern under grey-to-black for Spectre — polished ceramic bezels with platinum dive scales, and rotors with the emblem in 18k Moonshine Gold. The boxes add a NATO strap, strap tool, cufflinks, a cord bracelet, a loupe, a leather travel pouch and a card holder. The watches in the sets aren't sold separately.
No. The steel Bond and Spectre editions are non-limited special editions. Only the two boxed sets — which add platinum-gold watches — are limited, at 77 sets each.
The steel Bond and Spectre editions are $8,600 each in the US (€8,500 / CHF 6,700). Each 77-piece limited set is $89,800.
Only the looks. Both share the same 42mm steel case, Calibre 8806 movement, 300m water resistance and mesh bracelet. Bond gets a blue wave dial, titanium bezel and gun-barrel rotor; Spectre gets a black grained dial, black ceramic bezel and octopus rotor.
Omega's in-house Co-Axial Master Chronometer Calibre 8806 — the same no-date automatic movement used in the current Diver 300M No-Date and the No Time to Die edition, with 55 hours of power reserve.
Bond has worn an Omega in every film since GoldenEye in 1995, most often a Seamaster Diver 300M. Daniel Craig's last outing, No Time to Die (2021), featured the titanium Seamaster Diver 300M 007 Edition — the watch that introduced the mesh bracelet used on these new models.
Both steel editions are sold through Omega boutiques and omegawatches.com starting October 5, 2026.
Omega knows exactly what it's doing. Making the steel models non-limited means real fans can actually get one at retail — and splitting the collection into teams turns every wrist shot into a statement. The Bond Edition is the safer classic, the blue wave dial that started it all. The Spectre Edition is the one that'll start conversations, and that octopus rotor is the best-kept secret in the collection.
We're team blue — but we'd understand anyone defecting. Bond blue or Spectre black: which one's on your wrist? Tell us in the Community tab or tag us @rehaut1775 with #Rehaut1775.
