The movement is the Co-Axial master chronometer automatic caliber 8912 with a 60-hour power reserve. For the metal bracelets, OMEGA’s patented extendable foldover rack-and-pusher has been included, with a complementary length adjustment and an extra diver extension to fit around a wetsuit. A wide (highly readable) ceramic bezel insert comes in orange, black or titanium, with a white diving scale. Hands are treated with Super-LumiNova that glows blue on the hour and seconds hands, green on the minute hand and white to cyan on the seconds hand.

Omega seamaster professional#In 1971, Omega debuted the Automatic Seamaster 1000, a professional divers’ watch rated to 1,000 meters. Omega first introduced the Seamaster in 1948, followed by the Seamaster 300 in 1957 and a few years later, the Seamaster 600 Ploprof (the first few letters of the words plo ngeurs prof essionnels meaning “professional divers” in French), which achieved 600-meter water resistance. While the Rolex Sea-Dweller made the plunge equipped with a helium valve, Omega’s Ultra Deep, like most of its dive watches, is designed with a case that is helium-proof to begin with, so there is no need for a release valve. The extreme test was comparable to one Rolex undertook in the 1960s, when it sent an early version of its Sea-Dweller down to the Mariana Trench with the French diving company Comex (Compagnie Maritime d’Expertises). All three completed the 12-hour dive unscathed and in working order. Two Ultra Deeps were attached to the robotic arm of Vescovo’s submarine, the Limiting Factor, and another to a data-gathering unit known as a lander.
