Most of my Omega's are from the red box era. But I recently bought a 2020 Aqua Terra that came with the tan colored wood presentation box. I really like it. It's such an improvement over the red box.*

Out of curiosity, when was the wood box introduced? I was recently looking at Omega 212.30.41.20.03.001 Seamaster 300m's (the one's with the non-wave dial and ceramic bezel insert) which were produced from 2012 to 2017. Some had the red box and some had the wood box. So the transition must have happened in those years.




*I have a red box from 2004 that is in horrible shape. It's as if Omega used tissue paper for the outer material.

 

The tan wood box has appeared together with the updated layout of red cards, somewhere in 2015.

 

Thank you. That would put it pretty much in the middle of the non-wave Seamaster ceramic run.

 

Got one in early 2016, with my non wave, ceramic SMP, watch had been with the AD for a few months so thst would tie in with mid 2015

 

2014 even. The 300 Master Co-Axial that was released in 2014 never came in a box other than the wooden one.
