    We are very excited to answer to many requests from our friends and from the Omega collectors community: the publication of a new "ONLY" opus dedicated to the Seamaster diver watches.

    Some of you (just a few...) knew that we were working on this new book, but we hadn't announced it officially. Now we are happy to make it official: we will publish a SEAMASTER ONLY.

    And there is a good reason to do so. After a very interesting and positive discussion with our friends @kox and @Dash1, we have decided to collaborate and to merge our forces, with the sole objective to publish what will be (we hope) the new reference book on Seamasters. We are convinced that both of our teams will benefit from each other's experience and knowledge, and that it will leads to a fantastic book for collectors and watch enthusiasts.

    SEAMASTER ONLY is scheduled to be published in mid 2020. We definitely need more time to ensure the quality and the credibility of such an important book.

    It will covers divers watches only (not the entire Seamaster line!!). The main focus will be on the 300 versions but many other models will be featured: Ploprof, 1000, SHOM, Big Blue,... There will probably be some historical information, like we did for the FLIGHTMASTER ONLY. Kim and Ash will contribute to the entire section dedicated to the vintage Seamaster 300 models. No doubt they will do (and already have done) a fantastic job!

    There is still a lot of work to do, and you will need some more patience, but we are convinced it will be worth waiting! And we would like to take this opportunity to thank Kim and Ash for their collaboration.

    Last but not least... in the meantime, stay tuned for some other ONLY projects that could be finalized very shortly ;)

    Thank you to all of you for your fantastic support.

    Very cool. 2020 is a bit of a wait though.

    :( absolutely no interest in divers Seamaster for me, but I'm sure it will be a great volume for those who are and will be eagerly awaited by many:)

    If it does not cover all Seamasters the title seems odd. "Seamasters - only some of them" would be better.

    Congrats, enjoy the collaboration and the process, I’m sure the book will be popular and a success.

    Although I guess I’ll have to wait a while for the ‘Seamaster 1020 Caliber Only’ book... :confused:

    Very good news! Count me in.

    Will this volume cover both modern and vintage sea master divers? With so many different variations and models it’s hard to imagine what a huge undertaking this is.

    Very interesting as I'm intrigued to find out which information You'll publish on these Omega divers watches (Comex, Cousteau French Oceanic Campaigns, Janus, Mil Navy, etc...)... in comparison with other great books on dive watches (Blancpain, Rolex, Doxa).
