Rolex Submariner 116610LN vs 2018 Omega Seamaster Diver 300M 210.30.42.20.01.001; it’s the ultimate dive watch comparison! The ageless Rolex Submariner goes head to head with the renewed 25th anniversary Omega Seamaster Professional Diver 300M. Both of these luxury dive watches are stainless steel, automatic chronometers, feature diving clasps, and boast 300-meter water resistance. Omega vs Rolex starts now!
The Rolex Submariner 116610LN launched at Baselworld 2010. Although it measures the same 40mm as the prior reference 16610, the current Submariner is a larger and more imposing watch in all other dimensions; it wears more like a 42mm sports watch. Rolex 904L stainless steel is used to craft both the Oyster case and the Oyster bracelet.
A unidirectional dive bezel with a Rolex Cerachrom insert resists scratches and times your dive. Rolex includes an Oysterclasp with Glidelock adjustment for use over a diving suit or simply to facilitate more convenient sizing of the watch Rolex Chromalight luminant is applied to the hands and indices of the dial for easier reading at night. A screw-down Triplock crown helps to keep the ocean’s fury at bay during dives.
Inside the case, Rolex fits a manufacture caliber 3135 automatic chronometer movement. This precision movement is certified as a Swiss chronometer by the COSC before being cased and re-tested by Rolex to achieve “Superlative Chronometer” status; precision of -2/+2 seconds per day - or better - is promised. The Rolex 3135 features a 48-hour power reserve, quickset date, and hacking seconds (stop seconds).
The 2018 Omega Seamaster Diver 300M (210.30.42.20.01.001) was among the starts of Baselworld 2018. Its previous 41mm size has grown to 42mm, but this luxury dive watch remains instantly recognizable as the descendant of the 1993 model and the 1995 Omega SMP that starred on the wrist of Pierce Brosnan as James Bond in “Goldeneye.” With a tapered crown guard, a new helium release valve that can be opened while submerged, and a diving bezel with ceramic insert, the Omega matches and even surpasses the features of the Rolex Submariner.
Each 2018 Omega Seamaster Professional Diver 300M includes an upgraded stainless steel bracelet with a diving clasp. The deployant clasp is released by integral triggers, and it contains two adjustment systems for sizing and diving. Its first trick is the well-known fold-out dive extension; a new push-button incremental slider permits an additional 9.6mm of adjustment for both diving and sizing the watch for different wrists.
Omega’s caliber 8800 Master Chronometer co-axial caliber is an automatic movement with 55-hour power reserve. The movement meets the COSC chronometer standards for a bare movement, but it meets an additional battery of (METAS) tests that apply to the fully assembled watch.
An Omega Si14 silicon hairspring yields antimagnetic resistance, and the caliber 8800 sports hacking seconds with a quickset date. For the first time on a series-production three-hand Omega SMP Diver 300M, the Omega has chosen to fit a sapphire display case back.
The Omega Seamaster Diver 300M is encased in 42mm of steel surrounding a black dial on a stainless steel bracelet. Functions include hours, minutes, seconds, date, and helium escape valve. The watch also measures 13.7mm in thickness and 50.1mm from lug-to-lug.
The Rolex Submariner features a 40mm stainless steel case surrounding a black dial on a stainless steel Oyster bracelet with folding buckle. Functions include hours, minutes, seconds and date. The watch also measures 12.6mm in thickness and 48mm from lug-to-lug.
