Hi all,

As someone who often comes into contact with magnetic fields, I love the new omegas with 15k gauss antimagnetic movements. I was wondering if they are planning to put one of those inside the seamaster diver 300 in the more traditional sizes (41mm and 36mm - I know there's already a 42mm antimagnetic but it's too big for me). Does anyone know anything about it?

Who knows, maybe more things will be antimagnetic in the future?

 

I think you'll find that the new Seamaster 300 is 42mm - the 41mm version is gone.

 

The Seamaster 300 60th anniversary edition is with 15k gauss antimagnetic Master Chronometer 8806. Watch case size 39mm.

 

This Seamaster here. 41mm and it's 15K gauss anti-magnetic. Not the current Master Chronometer, but essentially the same with the Master Co-Axial.

 

In this video they tell that the only size will be the 42.

 

I really like what they have done with this new version. It's a shame that it's only 42mm - I'll have to try it on my wrist to see, the bracelet tends to look a bit wide on these models.

 

Actually as I see they modified the bracelet in favor of the smaller wristed people (like me). It does not extend as you can see, but goes down straight from the case. So basically this should wear similar or even smaller than the 41mm one.

 

Anyone know what the 2500d with shield is Gauss rated to? I have a SMPc 2017 with a shield over the movement under the caseback.
