Omega Seamaster blue dial watch on blue rubber strap - THE BEST EVERYDAY WATCHES FROM OMEGA

The first one to start one gas to be the Omega Seamaster 300M is one of the most iconic watches Omega has ever made and its design has already proven itself very successful. An everyday watch should be able to do everything, and the Seamaster 300 M diver is up for that task. Coming in a variety of different dial colours with matching bezels, the glossy ceramic dial and bezel gives the watch an extra bit of flare which helps you to dress it up.

This, coupled with the lyre lugs Omega is so famous for and a beautiful blend of brushed and polished finishings makes the diver very elegant. However, with 300 meters of water resistance, a helium escape valence and a date function the watch is very practical too. The classic 5 link tank tread style bracelet keeps the watch looking very sleek and the clasp features a quick glidelock style of adjustment. For those wanting to take the watch diving, don’t worry, you’ve got a diver’s extension built into the bracelet too !

Perhaps you’ve already been reading and researching the perfect daily watch from Omega and 9 times out of 10 you’ll see that the Omega Aqua terra keeps popping up as a strong contender. Omega designed the aqua terra to be able to be worn perfectly on land and in water which shows in the design.

The slim and high-polished case with a teak deck design for a dial in many colours gives the Aqua Terra that yacht-owner look. Formal and smart in design but features 150 meters of water resistance with a screw down crown. The date window is neatly tucked away at the 6 o’clock position giving the dial a clean and symmetric look. This watch can easily slide under your shirt cuff and the 3-link bracelet with centre polished links makes the watch pop thanks to its ability to reflect large amounts of light.

The great thing with Omega Seamaster range is that both the Aqua Terra (so long as it’s 41mm) and the Seamaster 300 M diver have very similar movements, the calibre 8800 and 8900, they offer a power reserve of 55-60 hours and are anti-magnetic to 15,000 Gauss! The METAS certification essentially means you could put this watch on the wrist of a special forces soldier and it could keep time no issue. The movements can easily withstand exposure to high shocks, magnetic fields and constant wear. With a service interval of 10 years, you can be sure that your Omega isn’t going to fail you but rather stand the test of time and keep good time doing so !

Finally, the last model from Omega that could be an excellent daily watch would be the forever famous Omega Speedmaster Moonwatch. The history, fame and design are all things to love about this watch which makes it so enjoyable to wear. Whilst not nearly as water resistant as the other two Seamaster options, it does offer an elegant chronograph design and for those who barely go near water, then this might not even matter.

The bracelet is much thinner and dressier compared to the Seamaster models which could be more advantageous to those wearing formal clothes often. More often than not daily watches tend to be some form of dive watch simply because it guarantees you can wear it in the air, land or water, however not everyone wants to have those features. The Moonwatch is more than good enough for astronauts so it’s definitely a purposeful tool watch, just not for water. That’s why it is nice to have a different model like the Moonwatch that has a different design to all your other typical daily watches.

Regardless of whether you take more of fancy to the Seamaster options or the Speedmaster, all three of them are taken excellent care of by ZEALANDE when it comes to strap options. A luxurious rubber strap is a great way to make your daily watch that bit more wearable and comfortable for long periods of wear. ZEALANDE have made sure to create the perfect fitted strap for your Omega ensuring the same level of attention to detail is mirrored.

ZEALANDE can offer you so many different colours so you can have some fun and plenty of conservative colours to give a more professional look to your watch. Either way, a rubber strap is definitely the best way to make the watch more personalised to your own unique tastes and styles.
