WHY THIS WATCH

The Omega Seamaster, introduced in 1948, is a renowned line of dive watches from Swiss watchmaker Omega. Inspired by waterproof wristwatches made for the British military, the Seamaster has evolved over the decades, featuring improved water resistance and design enhancements. Notable models include the Seamaster 300, Planet Ocean, and Aqua Terra. The Seamaster gained global recognition as James Bond's watch in the 1990s, solidifying its status as an iconic timepiece.

The Omega Seamaster 300m Liquidmetal 233.30.41.21.01.001, released in 2014, honors the brand's heritage with a vintage-inspired design. Featuring a black ceramic bezel with Liquidmetal hour markers, anti-magnetic Master Co-Axial movement, and stainless steel case, this Seamaster pays homage to the original 1957 model while incorporating Omega's cutting-edge technology and craftsmanship.

The Omega Seamaster 300m Liquidmetal 233.30.41.21.01.001 is a special watch for its blend of heritage and innovation. With a vintage-inspired design reminiscent of 1957 original, it features advanced materials such as a ceramic bezel with Liquidmetal hour markers. Its anti-magnetic Master Co-Axial movement ensures precision, while the stainless steel case guarantees durability and style.

The Omega Seamaster 300m Liquidmetal 233.30.41.21.01.001 features the Master Co-Axial Calibre 8400, known for its anti-magnetic properties and accuracy. This automatic movement is resistant to magnetic fields up to 15,000 gausses and has a 60-hour power reserve. Its Co-Axial escapement reduces friction, increasing service intervals and ensuring long-lasting performance.

On the wrist, this watch wears a touch bigger than its 41mm case size would suggest due to its thickness and lug construction. This watch has a thin bezel and is all dial (which I like). The dial is super legible, with the broad arrow pointing at the hours. Peering through the case back, this watch has a beautifully decorated Co-Axial movement.

THE LITTLE DETAILS

This watch was purchased in 2019, worn a handful of times on a nato, and kept in its box. The entire watch is MINT save for some wear on the back of the lugs from strap changes. The bracelet was never worn. The watch comes with a box, manual, and pictogram card only. Watch retails for $6,800.

WHY THIS WATCH

Omega's famous Calibre 321 is not only reserved for the early Speedmasters! Here we have it's dressier cousin, the Seamaster reference 105.004-64. At 35mm in diameter and 12mm thick, the size of this watch hits the sweet spot, when it comes to fit. This watch dresses up and down very easily depending on the strap. 

THE LITTLE DETAILS

Calibre 321 is a 22m serial, making the watch a 1965. The watch is functioning without issues, with the chronograph functioning and resetting to zero. The dial is in excellent condition with some normal wear considering it's age. No box or papers. Comes on the aftermarket strap pictured.

WHY THIS WATCH

This watch is one of the few all Titanium Omega Speedmasters that were released by the brand. The Solar Impulse (aka HB-SIA) references the name of a project to construct a fully solar airplane, capable of flying long distances. Omega partially sponsored this project, and so created this watch to commemorate it's participation.  

This watch is housed in a 44mm fully titanium case, with a black carbon fibre dial. The caseback has a special image of the solar impulse plane in flight. Inside we have the Omega Calibre 3603, which is based on the Piquet 1285, modified to include a Co-Axial Escapement. This watch has a 24 hour GMT hand, as well as a date aperture at 4:30. 

On the wrist, this watch is slightly larger than the classic diameter of a steel Speedmaster, however this is offset by the low weight of the full titanium case. Despite the larger diameter, I would say this wears very similar to a traditional Speedmaster because of the titanium. The text on the date window is very cool - the only way I can describe it is it's very digital. The co-axial chronograph movement is very smooth upon activation. The orange rubber strap makes this a great sporty watch for the summer. 

THE LITTLE DETAILS Watch was FULLY SERVICED by Omega in October 2022. The watch is in overall Near Mint condition with some minor wear on the case and some mild discoloration on the rubber band. Comes with the original Box, Papers, as well as the Service receipt. Wach is from 2017.

WHY THIS WATCH 

Released in 2002 as a homage to the Speedy Pro, the Omega Speedmaster ref. 3551.20 is inspired by the Broad Arrow Speedmasters of the past. The idea behind this Speedy was to make a Speedmaster that had some attributes of the old broad arrow speedmasters, but with some modern twists. With it's laser engraved tachymeter, broad arrow hands, and a case that is identical to the Speedmaster professional, this watch is borrowing a lot from it's past. The creme dial with fire-blued hands is where this watch begins to differentiate itself from the older references. Also, the movement used here is not the manually wound movement we are used to seeing in Speedmasters but instead an automatic Calibre 3303.  

THE LITTLE DETAILS

Watch is in overall excellent condition with normal wear from normal use. Most of the wear is on the bezel. The sides of the case and the lugs are clean with only very minor wear. The curved sapphire crystal is clean. The chronograph calibre is running strong, keeping good time, and resetting to zero. The factory Omega bracelet is in great condition with minor marks, and will fit up to a 7.5 inch wrist (more links available upon request if you have a bigger wrist). Comes with Box and Papers, as pictured, including original warranty card. Note the box is missing the pillow. Watch is from 2003.

WHY THIS WATCH

What can we say about a Speedmaster that hasn't already been said. This particular reference was introduced in 1996, and is pretty close in terms of design to the original watch worn on the moon. The rhodium plated calibre 1861 is pretty much bullet-proof. The ref. 3570.50.00 served as the flagship of the iconic Speedmaster for 20 years making it a modern classic. 

THE LITTLE DETAILS

Serial number engraved on side of lug, as well as on the movement make this a 1998 watch. The watch is in overall excellent condition with very minor wear throughout. The case has only minor wear, no dings or deep dents, and is around 90-95%. The bracelet is also very clean, showing little wear, around 90%.

WHY THIS WATCH

The Bear is Back!

 

Every year, Oris releases a Limited Edition run of watches to celebrate Holstein, the village Oris was founded in and still works out of today. The Holstein collection is one that usually sells out pretty quickly and collectors look forward to. This 2021 Holstein watch is limited to a run of 250 watches. 

Inspired by the Original Big Crown 

 

This watch has vintage feels, taking inspiration from the original Oris Big Crown from 1938. The case is the perfect size for a neo-vintage piece, at 38mm, the case is both polished and brushed. Dial-side we have a Matte Grey dial, showing a very nice pointer date complication. I've always been a fan of pointer dates, as I feel they maintain the symmetry of the dial. Flip the watch over and you get a nice engraving of the Oris Bear mascot. 

Bullet-Proof Calibre

 

Inside we have an ORIS Calibre 403, which has a longer than usual 5 day power reserve, and one of the best warranties in the business of 10 years. It's worth mentioning that the calibre this is based on, the Oris 400 is known to be a very reliable and bulletproof calibre. 

  

Wrist Impressions

 

I've always loved matte grey dials and straps, and this watch is no exception. There's just enough color here with a touch of red at 6PM for the seconds hand. The pointer date is truly useful and easy to read. At 38mm this watch is going to fit almost anyone perfectly. The big crown makes a statement but doesn't get in the way. 

THE LITTLE DETAILS

Watch was purchased in 2021 and comes with the full set of box and papers including warranty card. Watch is Brand New, never worn. Watch is reference 01 403 7776 4083 and is limited to 250 pieces.

WHY THIS WATCH

This watch was made in a limited run of 2000 pieces to commemorate Carl Brashear, the first African American to qualify as a NAVY diver and the first amputee to qualify as a US NAVY diver. 

This watch is based on the very popular Diver's 65 aesthetic, and comes in an all-bronze case. At 40mm in diameter, 13.3mm thick, 48mm lug to lug, and with a 20mm lug width this watch will fit mosts wrists and slip under any cuff. The caseback shows a nice engraving of a vintage divers helmet, alongside a quote by Carl Brashear. This case is water resistant to 100m. 

Dial-Side, the first thing that pops out is the crystal, which is actually a highly curved sapphire crystal, though it looks like an acrylic. You get the best of both worlds here, with the scratch resistance of sapphire and vintage look of an acrylic. Gold plated  markers are used on to outline the beautiful deep blue gloss dial. The 120 click bezel is also bronze, and uni-directional with lume on the numerals. 

Inside we have the calibre 401, which is automatic winding, 5 day power reserve movement. This is no run of the mill movement. There's 2 mainsprings here, giving you 5 days of power, which is a few days more than a standard movement. The balance wheel is silicone, and tuned to -3 +5 seconds per day at the factory, which is within COSC specs. 

This is so such a great watch for the money. You're getting an all bronze case, housing a movement that is not at all run of the mill. The fact that this is limited to 2000 pieces will also help resale value.
