Omega Teases New James Bond Seamaster for Casino Royale’s 20th Anniversary
If you’re a fan of Omega watches, you know they love making James Bond-related watches, and they also love anniversaries. Just in time for the 20th anniversary of the theatrical release of Casino Royale (the first movie where Daniel Craig played Bond), a new Seamaster Diver 300M combines both. Here’s the lowdown on ref. 210.30.42.20.03.004, which we assume is the Omega Seamaster Casino Royale 20th Anniversary Edition.
The Basics of the Omega Seamaster Diver Casino Royale 20th Anniversary
The specs of the “Casino Royale 20th Anniversary” version of the Omega Seamaster Diver 300M are identical to those of the
James Bond 60th Anniversary edition released in 2022. We just don’t know what the caseback or dial will look like, although we do know the dial is “blue aluminum.”
It’s a stainless steel watch with a 42mm case with a (somewhat unfortunate) height of 14.23mm and a sapphire exhibition caseback. It comes on a mesh bracelet with a folding clasp. I see no reason why its price would be much different than the $9,400 MSRP of the 60th Anniversary Bond 300M.

Final Thoughts
While it’s odd that the product page for the Omega Seamaster Diver 300M Casino Royale 20th Anniversary appeared unexpectedly with no picture shown, based on the weight and specs shown we can be pretty sure of what it will be (aside from the dial and the back). Hopefully the price isn’t too ridiculous. We’ll keep you posted!
