If there's a new square diver coming from Omega... I AM FREAKING HEREEEE FOR IT

[@FredoWfpb]

fancy seeing you here Watch Gringa!n😂 and same rocking my Seamaster 300M 😁

[@asura2545]

I sure hope so. I would appreciate the stirring of the stale divers market

[@theshamelesswatchchannel6815]

I thought you hated Omega?

[@Milofchg]

I hope this is a teaser video for a new Omega Marine re-release or modern version.

[@muffemod]

I KNOW RIGHT?! WHERE THE FUCK IS THE RELEASE?!

[@LP-rc4oz]

Super excited about what is to come! I love the great history of Omega that they continue to draw upon. Classy, technical and beautiful…triple threat!!!

[@barfymann362]

Right up my alley, a Reverso lover - come on Omega, don't let me down.

[@m.l.679]

Wow.. Beautiful music! These are now tales of legends ...

[@danielcanizales731]

Proud to wear my Seamaster!

[@lbco5229]

Omega; probably the most significant watchmaker in history. I’m hoping they produce the Seamaster Planet Ocean Ultra Deep Professional in a usable size for the public.

[@1vjbknife]

They did, it is called the Planet Ocean. When you scale down the Ultra Deep it becomes the Planet Ocean. The public does not need an ultra deep any more than anyone else.

[@jayfleegle9455]

That's why I own a Seamaster. There the very best 👌

[@Been_there_no_tshirt]

Genius. I’ve thought long and hard about the crown problem. This simple approach is brilliant.

[@johnvsbear4247]

This is a great video. And It underlines the fact that this watch was made 20years(!) before those pieces we recognize as modern dive watches (fifty fathoms, sub, etc). As for the reason to make this video now: I think the planet ocean is up next for a makeover. And this is part of a multitude of videos up until the release of the new PO. I hope I am right, looking forward to it.

[@BaronDeRothschild]

Finally!!! A brand that actually leans into their heritage rather than turn away from it.

[@bboooobbyy]

what?? 😅 Almost all historical brands trade on their heritage through reissues and legacy models. Very common

[@BaronDeRothschild]

@@bboooobbyy True. But I have also seen some brands distance themselves from their heritage for the sake of appeasing a new demographic. Engineering and innovation is important but combining that innovation with heritage is a perfect balance.

[@strapped2time]

Omega is about to announce a new deep diver. I can feel it! 🔥 🔥 🔥

[@BrittPearceWatches]

They have to be! And I am HERE FOR IT!

[@strapped2time]

@@BrittPearceWatches me too! Let’s see it! I’m assuming it’s related to the record breaking deep dive a few years back. That titanium beauty. I saw it live at their museum in Bienne.

[@mnt5349]

Omega should start a Heritage line, producing modern re-imaginings of classic watches. They’ve already had a few like the Seamaster 1948 or 300, and the Speedmaster ‘57. A modern take on the Seamaster 200 or some of the 80’s Seamaster Automatics would be great (in a larger size 40mm). And a square watch to rival the Cartier Santos or Tag Heuer Monaco.

[@scottishsuzuki8132]

Yeah I would love to see them re release the U.K Air Ministry watches.

[@RobertOrtiz1015]

Love the video and the presentation of these historical achievements! Now make another video unveiling the new version of this watch!!!! PLEASE

[@jolness1]

Omega has such a great history and back catalog, would love to see them continue to pull from their heritage. Not slavish tributes with fauxtina but pieces that capture the spirit of the historic models.

[@treasurecoastgypsy]

Dear Omega, Great presentation ,on a part of your history.I believe that myself and other Omega collectors, and fellow Omega owners, would greatly appreciate the re release of your iconic military issue Omega Seamaster 300 ST 165.024 from 1967," Big Triangle". This watch in its modern day re issue, would keep the Matte Black dial, and indices and hands as in the original. Please NO FAUX PATINA.but with modern lumen. A full lumed Bezel,, made of Aluminum,, treated for scratch resistance. A sapphire crystal and a master Co axial movement, for accuracy and anti magnetism. This watch, would have great appeal, due to its military heritage, rugged simplicity, and most importantly ,because there is a interest, in military inspired watches, as seen by releases of other top tier brand.We remain hopeful, and thankful , that you consider this suggestion. With humility, Thank you !

[@walnutsandbeastiality866]

I'd also love to see the re-release of a different "big triangle, sword hand" Seamaster, namely the Seamaster Diver 300M "2254.50.00"

[@almac9203]

@@walnutsandbeastiality866 I have to ask what is with your username?

[@walnutsandbeastiality866]

​@@almac9203 Uhh... it's a bit of a long story I'm a fan of telephone soundboard prank calls, and an old bail bondsman called Fred Gordon Herbert from California is a pretty famous prank call victim known as the Bail Bondshman (the bearded guy on my pic) He was baited in a call to bail out someone from Diamond Bar Walnut Jail, and "Walnuts" became his favorite food in prank call (they spliced lines where he breaks his tooth on a walnut, asks shops for pumpkin spice walnuts, etc. etc.) and in another call, he talks about beastiality So I chose these two words as an homage to the old guy 😁 Rest in Peace, Fred (2018)

Rolflex is just an imitation of The Omega brand! More history, more innovation no playing games with the consumers!

[@jumboJetPilot]

I have a SMP from 1998. Mine had the movement (quartz was an alternative at the time) and the much lesser common steel bezel which was the precursor to ceramic bezels. Serviced only once, it’s never missed a beat in the nearly quarter century that I’ve owned it! I love that watch and it still looks brand new! And oh yeah, I have a family tie to James Bond. My great uncle was the sound producer from Dr. No through Octopussy and was close personal friends with Sean Connery.

[@deborahkoquin7743]

Probabilmente riesciro a essere lì un giorno

[@jlg395]

You should re-release this EXACT watch, only with a co-axial movement. Do that and I'll buy it.

[@FirstNameLastName-kt3zn]

If it’s quartz, I’m in.

[@chrisbenning2097]

Omega! Please for the love of all that is Holy, make a Seamaster 300M Diver, in a smaller size! 39.5mm would be amazeballz!! Would buy in a heartbeat!

Dear Omega , Great presentation,on a part of your significant history .I as a Omega collector, would appreciate the re release of the 1967 MOD Omega Seamaster 300ST 165.024 .I truly believe this watch would be a success, given the interest with military inspired watches.A modern re issue, would have a aluminum bezel, that isfully lumed, and treated for scratch reristance.The dial wouldbe matte black, like original. The lumed indices and numbers, and " big triangle, " would be as origina.lThe movement, would be a master Co axial .Thank you for considering this proposal .

Refreshing to see omega running adverts that don’t bore on about the moon landing. Dive watches are dominated by one brand I’m afraid. And it’s as tight as their gas escape value.

[@CokeWithIceAndLemon]

A square dive watch? I’m in.

[@unknowntraveller8633]

Omega you need to reissue the Dinosaure watch.

[@HimmBaerDony]

Yeah is good 👍 But my Favorite Brand was Breitling … 🥰

[@1vjbknife]

Sorry, guys but the guy in the bathysphere was at one atmosphere of pressure inside of it. So the Omega watch that he was wearing was at no more pressure than walking in the park on a Sunday afternoon. That whole little drama was meaningless in terms of water leakage or a pressure rating of that watch. I also seriously doubt if the Diver in heavy gear was wearing that watch, not that he needed it for anything. The platform that he used to ascend was controlled from the surface by a crane operator and a diving Supervisor with a watch of his own and using a pneumofathometer tied to the Divers umbilical to tell his depth.

[@watchingbourbon7512]

That's some big gonads on the two fellows who weaseled into the cast iron bathysphere, and went so deep! Especially back then. What happens if the cables snap? How would they retrieve them back then? 923 meters! Hell no!

[@WatchGeek]

They really should make a modern reissue of this!!

[@mvnorsel6354]

.0000000000001 % of those who buy a divers watch actually use it for diving. ( I made that number up ).

[@hugejohnson5011]

Sounds about right. I get my watches wet in the shower, or maybe washing dishes, or a dog! I do take them off for washing my cars and bikes, but that is only in deference to the paint on the vehicles!

[@weiniesail]

Rec diving limit is 42m not 12m. Furthermore Barton and Beebes bathysphere was kept the occupant at atmospheric pressure negating the need for a dive watch. Really omega? If you’re gonna promote a dive watch line as a serious tool watch then this doesn’t help.

Omega is not Rolex, don’t copy Rolex’s price strategy. please on your way.

[@hugejohnson5011]

It's a shame that any of them are able to get as much for their watches. Based on the actual cost of materials, research and development, and manufacturing/sales, none of them are worth what they command. We pay the exorbitant costs to finance all of the adventures/teams/celebrities that these companies sponsor. I hate it because when I stare close up at some Rolex models, and some Omega watches as well, I get lost in all of the fine detail, and think about the manufacturing techniques that these outfits have developed.
