Omega launched two Seamaster Diver 300M watches on Monday 5 October, one for James Bond and one for Spectre. Both are 42 mm steel divers with the Co-Axial Master Chronometer Calibre 8806, listed at £7,200 in the United Kingdom, $8,600 in the United States and 8,500 euros in Italy. Each also comes as a limited set of 77, paired with a second watch in platinum-gold, at £75,300. The Bond watch has a blue dial engraved with a wave pattern and a gun-barrel motif on the rotor; the Spectre watch is black, with the organisation’s emblem on the rotor and its name on the caseback. The collection is called Timeless Adversaries, and it was released on the anniversary of the world premiere of Dr. No, on 5 October 1962. But it is also, in the words of Omega’s chief executive as quoted by WatchPro, the first time the brand has brought Bond and Spectre together in one collection, after more than thirty years on 007’s wrist.
42 mm, 300 metres, 55 hours
The two steel watches share a case. Both measure 42 mm across and 14.23 mm thick, are water resistant to 300 metres, have a helium escape valve at 10 o’clock and a brushed mesh bracelet, and run on Calibre 8806, with a power reserve of 55 hours and resistance to magnetic fields of 15,000 gauss. Omega names the movements “OMEGA 8806 James Bond” and “OMEGA 8806 Spectre”. The Master Chronometer label means two rounds of testing, as Omega explains it: a chronometer test by an independent laboratory under ISO 3159, then eight tests set by the Swiss Federal Institute of Metrology, METAS, with criteria of “0/+6 seconds per day”. The differences are in the details. The Bond edition has a blue aluminium dial laser-engraved with a wave pattern, a grade 5 titanium bezel ring and a rhodium-plated gun-barrel decoration on the rotor, seen through the sapphire caseback; it arrives in a blue box opened by a push-button with the 007 logo. The Spectre edition has a blackened grained dial, a black ceramic bezel, a blackened Spectre logo on the rotor and “Spectre” engraved on the back, in a black box. On both, as the product pages put it, “The hour and seconds hands emit a blue glow in line with the indexes, while the minute hand emits a green glow in line with the dot on the diving bezel.” The collection has its own page on Omega’s site.
77 sets, two watches each
The limited sets are the collector’s pieces. Each of the two, James Bond and Spectre, is limited to 77 sets, and each set holds two watches with the same limited edition number, engraved on a plate at 9 o’clock: the steel model and a second Seamaster Diver 300M in platinum-gold. Omega does not explain the 77. The platinum-gold Bond watch has a polished blue ceramic bezel with the diving scale in platinum and a dial in 18K white gold with a blue PVD gradient and a gun-barrel pattern. Its Spectre counterpart has a black ceramic bezel and an 18K white gold dial with a dark grey gradient and an octopus pattern. Both have hands and hour-markers in 18K white gold, a rotor emblem in 18K Moonshine Gold and an alligator strap. The box adds a NATO strap, a strap-changing tool, steel cufflinks, a cord bracelet, a loupe, a leather travel pouch and card holder, and a certificate. Omega lists each set at £75,300 in the United Kingdom, $89,800 in the United States, 75,700 Swiss francs in Switzerland and 89,300 euros in Italy, and its euro prices vary from country to country. Buyers of the sets are asked to contact a boutique.
“Omega has been the watch of James Bond for more than thirty years and this is the first time we have brought James Bond and Spectre together in a collection. Both belong to the same story, and our customers have always known both sides of it. Now they can wear both.” Raynald Aeschlimann, President and CEO of Omega, as quoted by WatchPro on 5 October 2026.
From GoldenEye to No Time To Die
The partnership has a long chronology. “OMEGA first appeared on the wrist of James Bond in GoldenEye in 1995,” the brand says, and in that film, as 007.com recalls, the Seamaster carried a laser and could disarm limpet mines. Since then, in Omega’s words, “the spy and his Seamaster watches have been inseparable”. For No Time To Die, released in 2021, Omega made a 007 Edition in grade 2 titanium, “identical to 007’s watch” in the film, and it is still in the catalogue at £9,500. The launch date is a Bond date too. Dr. No had its world premiere at the London Pavilion on 5 October 1962, and the press calls the day James Bond Day. Spectre, the organisation, gave its title to the 2015 film, which had its premiere at the Royal Albert Hall on 26 October that year, and Omega marked that film with a Seamaster 300 limited to 7,007 pieces, according to Time+Tide. What is new now is the pairing of the hero and the adversary in a single collection.
Rome by night, along the Tiber
Spectre also brought Bond to Rome. According to 007.com, “Bond’s journey to Rome on the trail of the Pale King was the first time a 007 film was shot in the Eternal City”. The chase between Bond’s Aston Martin DB10 and a Jaguar C-X75 ran “through the empty night-time streets of Rome and along the Tiber”. Six years later No Time To Die went south, and 007.com lists Matera, Gravina, Puglia and Sapri among its Italian locations. Rome has its own luxury addresses for anyone following the trail, from Ludovisi e Cadore to the new private residences at Casa JK Place Roma. The watches themselves are sold through Omega boutiques. On 6 October, the steel editions were listed on Omega’s online store as currently unavailable online, with a wish list, and both carried a badge marked “Exclusive access”.
Why the adversary matters
Bond watches have always been about the hero. This collection gives the adversary equal space, and Omega has built the launch around that choice. Its collection page works as a short questionnaire. Visitors choose three symbols, and the page assigns them a side: for Bond, a code of “duty exercised under constraint, class in motion, loyalty to an institution larger than yourself”; for Spectre, “power exercised without limit, intelligence turned toward control, ambition that answers to itself alone”. The steel watches make the contrast simple, blue and titanium against black and ceramic. The sets carry it into precious metal, with a gun-barrel dial on one side and an octopus on the other.
The Luxury.it perspective
The interesting words on Omega’s page are two short ones. When the Bond file opens, “The watch is issued to you”. When the Spectre file opens, “The watch is held for you”. The difference between issued and held is the whole idea of the collection, and it is a smart piece of writing for a brand that has dressed the same hero since 1995. For buyers, the choice is simple in practice. The steel editions cost £7,200 in the United Kingdom, against £9,500 for the titanium No Time To Die model, and each set is limited to 77. Pick the side first, then the metal.
