Omega continues to champion the nautical spirit in this Seamaster 2599.80.00 with the breezy wave dial, 300m water resistance, and a dreamy blue shade.
Why we love it
Omega sent shockwaves through the watch industry in the 1940s with the launch of the first Seamaster. From thereon, Omega initiated a legendary legacy of sports watches that continues to advance the aesthetics and performance of its timepieces. Omega Seamaster 300M is a mainstay of the Seamaster family and one of the best diver’s watches by Omega.
This Omega Seamaster 300M 2599.80.00 is classic in terms of design elements. Take, for example, the chronograph setting. While this model carries the subdials in a vertical fashion, later versions of Seamaster 300M include the triple chronograph dials horizontally. Details that further strengthen the vintage aesthetic of this timepiece are the curvy 41.5 mm case, the intriguing laser-engraved waves on the blue dial, its unidirectional bezel featuring the diving scale, and the helium escape valve at 10 o’clock. The dial is strongly armed with raised hour markers filled with Super-LumiNova, two skeleton hands accompanied by a seconds chronograph hand, and a framed date window at 3 o’clock. A domed anti-reflective and scratch-resistant sapphire crystal shields the dial.
The bracelet of this watch appears like a natural extension of the case; both rendered in stainless steel. With 5-piece links and a deployment clasp, the bracelet is at once good-looking and comfortable. An OMEGA 1164 calibre drives this model 2599.80.00. It’s a self-winding chronograph, chronometer movement with a 44-hour power reserve and a rhodium-plated finish. Wear this Seamaster everywhere, from the office desk to under the water, confidently and carefree.
Overall, this Omega Seamaster 2599.80.00 is in very good condition with a clean, polished bracelet. However, the case features light scratches on the bezel as well as the case back.
Provenance
At Second Movement, the pre-owned division of Ethos Watches, we adhere to a rigorous verification process where expert watchmakers carefully inspect every watch to certify its authenticity, ensuring it is not counterfeit. We also go to the maximum extent possible to ensure that the timepiece is not a stolen property and that all duties are paid. However, in the absence of any central database, a 100% verification is unlikely for any pre-owned entity in India. Nevertheless, we can still provide a provenance guarantee for watches purchased from Ethos.
Please note all our transactions with sellers are conducted via registered banking channels, accompanied by a signed affidavit, banking proof, and PAN card.
A specific affidavit stating the watch is not a stolen property and that all applicable duties have been paid is also obtained from the seller and is available for buyers in case of legal requirements.
We strive to build trust through transparency and diligence, outlining our verification process and the inherent limitations. Our commitment to integrity shapes every transaction, prioritising your confidence while acknowledging the realities of the pre-owned watch market.
