Good Condition
This Omega Diver 300M Ref. 2561.80.00, crafted in stainless steel with a blue wave dial and matching rotating bezel, dates to 1994. In good vintage condition, it shows visible marks and scratches to the case, bracelet and bezel ring. A versatile choice for everyday wear, weekends away or adding a sporty note to smart-casual looks.
Please note that the majority of our items are vintage and therefore have tales to tell unless stated otherwise. Therefore, please look at pictures, descriptions and measurements provided as they give you the best idea of the story this item has to tell.
* Please note that when you buy a vintage product, the dimensions may vary slightly from a new one depending on previous care and storage.
Q: Is this Omega Diver 300M quartz or automatic? A: This reference 2561.80.00 is the mid-size quartz version of the Seamaster Diver 300M, powered by Omega calibre 1538. It offers the convenience and accuracy of a battery-powered movement, making it a practical everyday watch.
Q: What size is the watch and how does it wear? A: The case is 36 mm, which is considered Omega’s mid-size format for this model. It usually suits smaller to medium wrists especially well while still giving the classic Diver 300M look. The bracelet on this piece is listed for an approximately 17 cm wrist.
Q: Can I swim or dive with this watch? A: The model was originally designed with 300 m water resistance. However, as this is a pre-owned 1994 watch, water use should be approached cautiously unless it has been pressure tested recently and the crown is fully secured.
Q: Is this the James Bond Omega? A: It shares the famous blue wave-dial Bond-era Seamaster look that became iconic in the 1990s. However, the screen-worn Bond versions were the larger full-size models, while this watch is the more compact mid-size interpretation.
Q: How long does the battery last, and how do I know when it needs replacing? A: Omega states a battery life of around 42 months for this movement. When the battery is nearly exhausted, the seconds hand typically starts jumping in 4-second intervals, which is the end-of-battery-life indicator.
Q: What materials and features does this watch have? A: This watch has a stainless steel case and bracelet, a blue wave dial with luminous hands and hour markers, a date window at 3 o’clock, a blue rotating bezel, a deployment clasp, and a domed sapphire crystal. These details are part of the classic Seamaster Diver 300M design.
Q: What is the condition of this specific watch? A: This piece is listed in good to very good vintage condition. The product information notes visible marks and scratches on the case, bracelet, and bezel ring, which are consistent with age and prior wear.
Q: Does it come with box, papers, or extra links? A: No accompanying items are listed for this watch. The product information states no included extras, so it should be purchased as watch only unless otherwise confirmed. If bracelet fit is important, please note the listed wrist perimeter is approximately 17 cm.
Q: What maintenance should I expect with a vintage quartz Seamaster? A: Omega recommends regular care, including a water-resistance check about once a year and a complete service every 5 to 8 years depending on use. If service history is important to you, it is worth requesting confirmation before purchase, as that is not specified in the product information.
Q: How do you authenticate this watch? A: Every watch at A Retro Tale is reviewed by in-house experts through detailed checks of reference and serial details, materials, construction, and overall consistency. If you would like more reassurance, you can always contact us for additional product information before purchase.
