Description
Designed in collaboration with Daniel Craig, this Seamaster is the ultimate military-inspired diver. Eschewing the polished steel and ceramic of the standard 300M, it opts for matte Grade 2 titanium and a 'tropical' aluminum dial that suggests decades of sun-drenched service. It is remarkably light on the wrist and serves as a functional tool watch with high-fashion cinema heritage.
