I originally tried to buy a submariner but was treated awfully by the minimum wage shop assistant at the Rolex AD. I then went to an omega AD and was treated like a king and walked out with the blue seamaster.I’m glad I did, the blue with bits of red just pops and omega have a loyal customer for life.

Funnily, the bezel action, the helium escape valve and the bracelet are my absolute favorite parts of this watch = )

[ernesthemingway]

•The bracelet is part of the essence of that watch.

My daily piece is a Omega SMPc 300. Waveless dial in black. Personally love the uniqueness of the HE valve and bond bracelet. Sets apart from every other watch on the market and I love that. The newer iterations are a bit flashy with the waves and oversized for most individuals. Wish they would step it back to 40 or 41mm like the good old days…

I got mine a little over a month ago, blue with metal bracelet, I’ve been checking the accuracy, so far it’s running about 0.4 seconds fast per day, or about 12 seconds per month, that’s slightly better than my friends Rolex, I have no real complaints, it’s my everyday tool watch.

I've been watching your channel for over a 1.5 years now and have never commented. This video was absolutely wonderful, keep up the good work and I wish you a speedy recovery!

I don’t miss my Rolex, submariner, and my Tudor Pelagos is always in danger of being traded in… But my Seamaster professional with white dial isn’t going anywhere…

I now have 3 Omegas, collected over a few years, my Speedmaster was a gift from my wife, the Aqua Terra bought by my Grandma, and finally the Seamaster, which I actually wear the least, Speedmaster still my favourite, but I’ve wanted one since I was 11 year old, and my wife bought me it 😊

[motownazn]

I think you’re one of the only big YouTube Watch Reviewers that actually show a simple clear clip of the bezel action. So many just brush over that as a thing that people do. So thank you

[stevemoreno]

I've had this blue version for a few years and love it. I was able to get the seaweed one a few weeks ago. The green looks almost black when indoors.

Hey Britt, the lighting in this video is exceptional. I love that you have more natural light bleeding in (or at least it looks like it) than the majority of watch channels, it gives your video a much more human touch and relatable feel. Keep it up!

I have the midsize Goldeneye SMP 300 and I love it! It really is a unique dive watch due to the wave dial, HE valve, scalloped bezel and 5 link bracelet. I thought I would hate the bracelet but I think its one of the most comfortable. That diver's extension is amazing. The bezel action for my watch is good but it can be hard to grip at times. The HE valve doesn't bother me at all. Sure, its useless to most people but I find it charming. The James Bond connection is a big reason why i like the HE valve. It can't be denied that the Omega Seamaster Professional has massive cool factor. The value is also a big contender. It's not for everyone but the fans REALLY like it

I bought my omega Seamaster 300 back in 2004, and it was my first luxury dive watch purchase. I’ve never had any issues with the anti-reflection coat at all. And I’ve never had any other type of issues with it. Also it is about 39 mm in size which goes well with my small wrist. I wish companies would stop just making giant 42 mm dive watches.

And most of the dive watches I see are Rolex submariners.

[HYPERPANTHER]

Concern with the bracelet is a sign that you didn't experience the 90s or play Goldeneye for hours on end.

[Topgqrst]

I have it and love it, the biggest negative about: it comes with no additional straps and the rubber strap is unreasonably priced (around $560).

[resxua]

Traded in my Rolex submariner for a white dial Omega Seamaster professional. Love it and like that there aren’t a ton of fakes out there. I’m also Glad to have an Omega from 1950, my birthyear.

[maxaudi]

This is a great watch. I bot mine in 1998 and had it serviced just once and it’s been my daily watch since. And with regards to the manual helium valve; just one piece of advice. Get over it. It’s not a deal breaker and brings uniqueness to the brand

[boiler]

This was my first luxury watch purchase….. and I’m REALLY happy with it.

[eyeheartsushi]

Wow Britt your house looks lovely. I have the black dial version of the Diver 300 but also want a blue dial. I’ll wait and see what happens this Anniversary year.

always enjoy and look forward to your content.
