    Quite nice but that case design is over 20 years old now, isn't it? Happy with my mid-size 007 anyway.

    Wondering why people with no interest in watches are on a watch forum?

    It’s a no from me.

    Although it’s probably the best iteration of their manual HEV, but as the Ploprof has an auto valve, there is little excuse any more other than sticking with it for styling purposes - so no point then ;)


    As for the watch, I really like it - probably the best looking of the new SMP’s, as I’m really not a fan of moving the date to 6 on this update :(
    It's just a matter of time...

    I wouldn't buy it in ceramic but I much prefer the no date look compared to the date at 6 o'clock. Looks nice.

    Makes buying an older one second-hand look like such good value!

    I like it a lot, looks very modern. However the pricing is just daft.

    Crazy pricing - I bought my Seamaster (forget the exact model but the bond looking one but quartz instead of auto) for around £600-£700 in Dubai all those years ago - to see the price now makes my eyes water!

    Lovely looking watch though!

    Such a shame what Omega are doing here, the predecessor was a great watch and the improvements are great BUT for that pig of a HEV on the side, and now the black case, awful.

    Advancing in many ways but failing in others. Almost nets out.

    Remove the HEV, keep the sizing the same as the stainless, and put the date back or offer a no date version. Then I'll buy the stainless steel in black immediately.

    Still, looks interesting if you're currently mulling a Tudor. Would be enough to get me to have the Omega... probably.

    Too big and too expensive. That said, I'm liking Omega's reinterpretation of the wave dial.

    I think it already looks aged - not a fan

    I do like the new Seamaster 300m but I really don't like the look of Titanium watches (or anything else in Titanium) - I always think it looks really dull and would much prefer a quality stainless steel.

    Does anybody ever really feel weighed down by a nice watch after 45 seconds of putting it on...?

    Yes.

    But the main point being, I’d rather have the option of ceramic, or Ti, or steel, gold, platinum, whatever than not.
    It's just a matter of time...

    On the other hand - I love the subtle lustre of titanium.

    Very nice but 50% overpriced. Will wait for it to be 40% off in the inevitable Ernest Jones 'who'd have thought that there aren't enough mugs willing to spend £6k+ on a SM300' sale.

    Would you have one though ? That’s the 68 million dollar question.
