Model Reference
PRE-OWNED OMEGA SEAMASTER 300 M 2542.80.00
Production Years:
Dating back to the 1990s, the Omega Seamaster 300 M 2542.80.00 belongs to a generation of Seamaster watches that helped redefine Omega's presence within the luxury sports watch market. The reference has since been discontinued, securing its place among notable modern era Seamaster models.
Defining Features
It is not easy to find another watch dial that would be so recognisable as the wave pattern in blue on this Seamaster. Thanks to its texture, the watch gains a distinct look, and thanks to luminescent markers and hands, it remains visible even in the absence of light.
This watch was constructed using a stainless steel case along with an equally stainless steel bracelet in order to make it durable. There is a date display at 3 o’clock, which is rather functional in everyday life.
The watch has a rotating dive bezel, which is used to track elapsed time and has been traditionally used in diving watches. It comes with 300-metres of water resistance.
The watch uses an automatic movement, thus maintaining its mechanical charm.
About Omega Seamaster 300 M 2542.80.00
During the late twentieth century, the luxury watch industry saw growing demand for sports watches that could move effortlessly between professional use and everyday wear. The Seamaster 300 M emerged as Omega's answer, combining technical functionality with a design language that felt contemporary and distinctive.
The 2542.80.00 became one of the most familiar faces within that collection. Its blue colour scheme and wave pattern dial established a look that would become strongly associated with the Seamaster line for years to come.
Beyond aesthetics, the reference contributed to Omega's broader resurgence during the 1990s. By blending proven diving credentials with accessible styling, it appealed to a broad audience and helped reinforce the Seamaster's reputation as one of the brand's cornerstone collections.
