This resulting “tropic” effect means that every dial will be unique due to this aging process of the bronze. The upper dial is then blackened, before being delicately brushed to reveal some of the warmer brown tones of the underlying substrate. The German silver base plate is etched with the markings and filled with lume. There’s a German silver base plate, and a cover plate in bronze (92% copper). The Au375 engraving at least let us know there’s 37.5% gold in this alloy.Īs you can see in the pictures, the Omega Seamaster 300 bronze gold uses a sandwich dial. The use of palladium keeps the color bright and will reduce the patina effect. Omega doesn’t want to reveal the exact percentages of each material, but let us know that the color of this alloy sits between Moonshine (yellow) gold and Sedna (rose) gold. The bronze-gold alloy consists of copper, 9-karat gold, silver, gallium, and palladium. With bronze gold, there’s nothing to worry about.

Bronze watches often have a steel or titanium case back, so there’s no skin irritation. First, there’s no risk for people with an allergy. This new alloy has a number of characteristics that make it an interesting choice for a watch. The bronze-gold Seamaster 300 234.92.41.21.10.001 is the one that received the most attention in our office. Omega sent us a box of watches under embargo, and inside we found three new Seamaster 300 models. Without further ado, let’s have a look at the new bronze gold Seamaster 300 and see how it wears. The classic Broad Arrow hands and straight lugs remain. The 41mm diameter remains, but the case band and bezel combined are slimmer than before, with the old height retained by virtue of a boxy sapphire.
The Omega Seamaster 300 collection receives a few subtle changes, including an upgraded movement (caliber 8912, Master Chronometer certified) and modified case proportions. However, this fresh new alloy - the aptly-named bronze gold - is something new to us all. Bronze certainly isn’t new to the industry. Omega updated its Seamaster 300 collection and added a bronze gold version (reference 234.92.41.21.10.001) as well.
