OMEGA SEAMASTER HISTORY
For Over 60 years , the Seamaster has shared in some of the most exciting moments in the conquest of the sea. A pioneer in watch making, after test twenty times more severe than for a simple chronometer, an OMEGA Megaquartz 2400 model was observatory-certified as a "marine chrono- meter," the only wristwatch in the world to have obtained this title. In 1980, Omega marine chronometers received the distinctive honor of being selected by the French navy to equip its fleet of ships. In 1993, OMEGA completed its Seamaster line with the world's first mechanical chronograph-chronometer diver capable of functioning-without fail- to a depth of 300m/1000ft! The OMEGA Seamaster embodies precision, sturdiness and endurance and has become the watch of outstanding personalities. Even the hero of "GoldenEye" and "Tomorrow Never Dies," James Bond himself, recruited the help of OMEGA in his quest to save the world both on time an in style. For both Bond adventures, Q, the chief special weapons manufacturer for Her Majesty's Secret Service, collaborated with OMEGA's master watchmakers to produce the extraordinary Seamaster Professional Divers watch that did more than just tell time. Whether it was cutting his way out of the car of a run-away train with his Seamaster's built-in laser in "GoldenEye" or detonating a bomb with his Seamaster in "Tomorrow Never Dies," James Bond owes his life to his OMEGA watch.
