The Seamaster Professional family rose to prominence on Pierce Brosnanβs wrist as James Bond in the 1990s β a role that solidified the wave-dial Seamaster as an icon of cinematic style.
While most eyes go to the 41mm, the 36mm Seamaster Professional 300M has become increasingly collectible for its balanced proportions and wearability. For collectors seeking Omegaβs signature diver look in a versatile size, this watch delivers the story without compromise.
