Overview

The Omega Seamaster Professional 300M reference 2531.80.00 is a 41 mm stainless steel diver produced from 1993 to 2006, distinguished by its instantly recognisable blue wave-pattern dial. Powered by the automatic Calibre 1120, it sits at the heart of the modern Seamaster lineage and remains one of the most widely recognised sport watches of the late twentieth century.

History

Introduced in 1993 alongside a high-profile cultural moment that brought the Seamaster back into the global spotlight, the 2531.80.00 sustained production for well over a decade, a testament to its broad appeal. The reference was built on the Calibre 1120, an automatic movement derived from the ETA 2892-A2 base, offering reliable daily performance. Its long production run through 2006 means examples span a range of subtle dial and hand variations that collectors have come to document carefully.

Notable points

  • 41 mm stainless steel case with a screw-in crown and helium escape valve, rated to 300 metres water resistance.
  • Blue wave-pattern dial — a textured, horizontally brushed motif that became the visual signature of the modern Seamaster 300M line.
  • Calibre 1120 automatic movement, a refined derivative of the ETA 2892-A2, known for its slim profile and dependable accuracy.
  • Produced continuously from 1993 to 2006, giving the reference one of the longer uninterrupted runs in Omega's modern sport-watch catalogue.
  • Collector interest centres on dial and lume-plot variations, bezel insert condition, and the presence of original bracelet components across the production span.
