It's friday night, and im watching this video lol

[@patrickhennessy6531]

Killed me.

[@alzarzour8127]

I rarely ever comment on KZbin videos, but your videos are phenomenal. I’m subscribed to many other watch channels, but yours elevates everything to perfection. Keep up the excellent work!

[@YoureTerrific]

You're too kind.

[@watchenthusiastlondon]

Agree 💯 🎯

[@SeniorChief.24-7]

Al, this is Al. I didn't want to duplicate the comment by adding my own but I just found the channel and instantly subscribed. Your comment is virtually * exactly * what I wanted to say. I've been watching KZbin content on the sidelines before KZbin was made and never felt compelled to comment but #LoveTheSarcasm/LoveTheOriginality @You're terrific!! 👍. Refreshing.

[@aryaredzwan89]

I just discovered this channel and I can’t stop watching your content. Keep it up man!

[@charlieallen9565]

Love the video as per usual. The key to turning the SMP bezel is to place your thumb at the 40min counter and index at 10min. Keep your hand in place and only using those two fingers, rotate the bezel. I haven't had any issues turning the scalloped bezel using this method, but noticed most folks don't use a bezel this way normally so I figured it wouldn't hurt to mention. Cheers!

[@AkshayArvind11]

I have this watch and it is clean, beautiful and catches everyone's attention immediately. Got it 25% off of MSRP

[@michaelfierman3256]

I really love the look of this so much. I know their ceramic ones are large but that grey side felt and even looked “normal” on me. But yeah. A gorgeous watch. Great review Evan

[@YoureTerrific]

Thanks, Michael.

[@travisreese7229]

Brilliant, nuanced, fun, layered, informative, interesting...and I'm not even talking about the watch. Your videos are my weekly highlight now. I don't mean to make you a dependency for my emotional health, but hey, it happens. The education of the videos is only matched by the emotional intelligence in describing the experience all layered in solid production. I still don't want a ceramic Seamaster 300 but damn if it didn't at least make me understand my inner "why" and not just have a commercial and technical relationship.

[@YoureTerrific]

As my wife can attest, depending on me for your happiness is a dangerous path to go down.

[@kinagoo]

I own this watch and can second everything you said, I own Seiko, Tudor, Rolex, this is my go to piece for everyday, dresses up, down and everything in the middle. Thanks for a great review and for finally shinning light on this incredible piece of engineering. Take care man!

[@NicholasCFranklin]

I have the all ceramic (basically) “black black”. Omega does some of the best work with non-steel materials in the industry.

[@YoureTerrific]

Agreed

[@bradzink1639]

I got that recently too. It's the kind of watch, when you put it on you just giggle a little bit. It's dang cool!

[@alastairforbes2792]

That's a very cool piece 👌

[@almac9203]

The Masters of ceramic is Rado. I wonder if Rado share their ceramic technology with the rest of the Swatch Group?

[@NicholasCFranklin]

@@almac9203 dunno. Will say in my handling the omega I have is finished better than most RADO I’ve seen. The use of fully relief dial is truly striking (albeit hard to read).

[@trs8696]

I have the 43.5mm ceramic with sedna gold instead of titanium. I've owned a lot of nice watches and this is very possibly my favourite ever.

[@dezmarinvestmentsllc9964]

Your narration is on point, humorous and entertaining.

[@dcm703]

Saw this in person and really liked it but I fell in love with the white dial/black bezel one. Have had a 2541.80 for forever and have been waiting to love a replacement like this.

[@jovianleong4651]

super slick, I can see myself doing everything with the watch…from swimming, gym, work and informal/formal events!

[@andrewm9669]

I have the seamaster diver 300, in blue with the rubber strap. I love it. I love the modern design, and feel of the omega. I wear it sporadically and is a great watch. Delighted i bought one.

[@chazfromtheburg]

Omega does some amazing things with ceramic. Love this one. Another stellar job on the video.

[@almac9203]

The industry leaders in ceramic is Rado. I wonder if Omega can access the Rado technology since they are both part of the Swatch Group. Rado could teach Omega how to make ceramic bracelets to pair with the ceramic watches. It would make sense to share the technology.

[@bruck177]

I used a lot of those same mental gymnastics to purchase the Seaweed Green SMP 300. Loving it so far.

[@benjamincaudle7154]

You are absolutely punishing my laptop with coffee sputum. Spinal Tap reference, self bleeped cursing and the 'live your life' near catchphrase I've come to expect so I can continue my lonely drinking game for one. Love this video. If I can't wear it I'll watch it here. Mostly because I don't know John.

[@atthelord]

Fantastic Video as always ! Interesting piece, and congrats to your friend who owns it! Tbh I personally really want to see the non wave dial seamasters return!

[@YoureTerrific]

I'd like to see that too.

[@vote4blake]

Excellent commentary! I love this Omega, Especially the brushed hands. Really wish Omega would make a 43.5mm Seamaster Diver 300 in grade 5 titanium and DLC-coat it black. My hangup with this ceramic model was the brittleness of ceramic and its tendency to shatter rather than dent. I ended up getting the PO 43.5 with Grade 5 titanium case, bracelet and dial. It too is a stunner and relatively overlooked by mainstream consumers. Ive yet to feature it on my channel but likely will soon.

[@sakimano]

The planet ocean 43.5 you say you have is actually around 41.6mm bezel diameter. If you like that size get a 42mm regular Diver. They're 41.9mm diameter.

[@Jeetacademykl]

A real Grail watch !!! amazing amazing model ! and super cool video ! thank you !

[@MarioGonzalez-yq3gw]

I honestly never want your videos to end once I hit play. That's a gorgeous Omega! If Rolex keeps their BS up, that watch would be on a short list for my next piece!

Incredible watch. I love the size. I love the proportions.

[@jimlittle5769]

I never will understand the idea that one won't buy a watch simply because it's popular. I've never seen my blue Seamaster 300M on the wrist of anyone but myself except at the rare watch group meetup. Same thing with the Speedy.

[@stevecastro22]

The irony of not liking something that’s popular but being on the most popular streaming platform reviewing the most popular watch brands. All kidding aside, love the videos! Keep ‘em coming.

[@SuReZ]

Terrific job again, thanks :) My favorite part of this watch is the reversed dial finishing compared to the standard black one. This matte black dial with shiny waves looks so much better than the glossy dial with matte waves.

[@metalelysium]

Totally with you on that!

[@SuReZ]

[@jmann2977]

Nice review with a great sense of humor. Thank you.

[@sergiysorokin2858]

It’s a great watch! after I bought it and put it on an aftermarket black sailcloth strap, i was wearing it 6 days a week! I sold it for two reasons: my wrist is 6 1/2 inch and I stopped wearing my Sea-Dweller 116600, which was more special & rare.

[@jjwilki4294]

Yes i agree, the ceramic will make it look brand new forever.

[@AHStein-zo6jj]

Great review. And extra kudos for the Spinal Tap reference!

[@YoureTerrific]

Glad you noticed.

[@whitetiger82]

had mine well over a year and not a mark of scratch due to the ceramic case material. In years' time I anticipate it to still look like brand new.

[@YoureTerrific]

I think you're right.

[@gyropyro7338]

Another distinction between this model and the standard 300 is the fact that the dial has a matte finish with the narrow waves being glossy while the standard one is the other way around. This makes this dial a lot less reflective and shiny. Subjective for sure, but i prefer less gloss.

[@YoureTerrific]

Ah, good point!

[@tobyclements3791]

I agree!

[@hipporage18]

The perfect modern dive watch! Showcasing movement and materials that really feel appropriate for the age. Steel feels old

[@KeepingWatchUK]

Great video & narrative. New subscriber! Totally agree- this is probably my favourite Seamaster too. Looks damn cool in the black/grey colour way & with no date. Size looks great on you (I have 7.2” wrists) but even so id probably prefer 40-42mm sizing. Better than a Submariner…. that’s the ultimate question…. 😉

[@BackwardsMoving]

Aside from the totally fabulous video (as always) I want you to know how much I appreciated the your frankly excellent references. Perfectly cromulent use of the word embiggened. 11/10.

[@YoureTerrific]

Indubitably

[@jasonhsia2422]

I wear mine to the gym everyday and it does make me feel better than everybody else. It really is a great feeling to get home after a morning work out and see the lume as you reset the bezel.

[@omarion07]

If wearing a luxury watch makes you “feel better than everybody else “ you’ve got serious issues and something is lacking.

[@jasonhsia2422]

@@omarion07 maybe I am lacking Omarion07 to keep me warm at night, that would be a serious issue! 🤣

[@hugohernandez3651]

What an amazing video. I own this watch and I absolutely love it.It is quite different from the standard version. Omega fanboys used to say everyone has a Submariner. Guess what? The same can be said about the standard 300M. It is a beautiful watch, but it is too popular.

[@steffydog]

[@skyworks1621]

Because of the size I went with the regular seamaster 300 with black dial and rubber strap. Have the watch for a week and I have to say it looks great. I had the Tudor Pelagos and I like Omega more, bacause it has more going on with the dial, markers...

[@normang663]

Holy crap this looks amazing

[@LeoRomanusFilms]

This is an interesting contrast to the Tudor black Bay ceramic. Very very similar in a lot of ways. Well, except for cost! The sea master does look amazing though. At $8100 though, if one were interested in ceramic, they may also want to consider the Tudor. Great video is always of course.

[@omarion07]

I’ve the BB ceramic…. Great watch if you’re into the stealthy looks. This version of the seamster looks nicer than the BB ceramic, but if the 42 mm basic seamaster didn’t wear well on my 16 cm wrist (because of it’s ugly non tapering bracelet), I doubt this 1.5 mm wider 1 mm thicker Ceramic seamaster will wear any better (despite being on rubber strap). BB ceramic on the other hand wears like a dream!

[@Geniusclicks]

Once I switched to a dark green leather strap it made the black bay fit like a glove. Haven’t worn any or watch since.

[@Billytheshit]

especially this one you have to see in real life.. it looks awesome

[@johnsports32]

Damn, I love that thing! If I didn’t already own the steel version, it’d be on my wishlist. While popular amongst watch geeks like ourselves, I’m not sure the Seamaster is “too popular”. I’ve owned mine for 3yrs now and still haven’t seen anyone else wearing one in person.

[@watchguy8360]

I saw 2 the other day so I do think it is pretty popular.

I like this dial more than the steel version. It's much less blingy. This dial is mostly matte with only the wave lines being shiny. The dial on the metal version is mostly shiny with only the wave lines being matte.

[@thetimist]

Great review - love the "low key-ness" of this watch, and the material usage with ceramic and titanium. The white markers have a great contrast with the rest of the timepiece. Now...to try and figure out how exactly you did the whole jump back and forth with the purple/green table surface 🤔

You should do a video on the G-Shock MRGB5000 since you’re such a huge fan of the Squares!! With your level of knowledge, quality, edge, and visual quality, this would be such a kick ass video to enjoy when yo I decide to do it! This Omega is awesome as someone who likes black on black everything. The Fancy goth in me screams with joy lol

[@imranbecks]

I'm wondering why they couldn't retain the size to 42mm like the rest in the line, just to standardise the line. Why make it 43.5mm? I tried it on the other day. It's really nice and looks so good. Very lightweight too. Also worth noting is the matte dial it has. The steel model has a glossier dial.

[@pruteanu6]

[@jeremybodeker9841]

4:49 🤣! Again.. Great review!👊🏽

[@f.r.cofresi3497]

Nice work. Love the watch, but the lug-to-lug distance is out of my league. So I will stick with my old Seamaster 2255.80 electric blue dial and its beautiful dimensions. The other Seamaster I am interested in is the Titanium version for the Not Time to Die, but the price is a little high for what I want to pay. Take care, and keep up the excellent work.

[@MarcelGelderblom]

"It aint' got no date, just like a watch collector on a Fridaynight." Very funny, kudos!

[@dultanur]

I love the darn thing... The case finish, the way it works so well with the Ti components, even the strap and the no date (normally I love my dates, even if they are at 0430). I think the price is OK, not good but understandable. It's just the size that disqualifies the watch. I wish it was smaller (I have 6 and nothing inch baby watch collector wrists). I'd still try one on though, just in case :P

[@joe19782005]

Perfect watch review

[@user-xh5pi2nf9q]

I really like this one, have since I first saw it. Id like it even more if it had the “pizza slice” at 12. I prefer the matte dial with gloss wave pattern over the normal diver 300m

[@gz8793]

Nice vid. Just wonder why omega doesn’t simply make a ceramic case on the steel version. It will be much easier to wear.

[@diavalus]

I am in the same boat as you with the wrist size, but I went and bought one nonetheless. It is the most accurate mechanical watch I own, gains 0.3-0.5 seconds a day. And that’s both nice and unfortunate, because I cannot wear the watch simply because it is too big. My Globemaster takes its place on my wrist most of the time though.

[@DS42296]

Hey! I have the rose gold and black ceramic version and I'm loving it! I can see the case back is different from yours with the engravings... on mine the engravings are "silver" colored and not engraved into the ceramic, this doesn't worry me because that's how it is on the website and i got mine from an AD so its legitimacy isn't in question... what I do wonder is that do you know if the caseback is made of PVD coated stainless steel? I can't find any other way to explain how the lettering is silver! And also I've been using mine with a gold bracelet and it seems as though some of the black is wearing off the very edge of the caseback which is something that only happens on PVD coated stainless steel!

[@cistm_un-do_]

Great video as always! For context, I own half a dozen Rolex and multiple Tudor, Seiko, Cartier, Tag, etc. I’ve also owned over ten Seamasters and Planet Oceans, and believe it or not, the new white dial Seamaster is probably one of my all time favourites watches, is a regular daily for me, and it is especially good on a rubber strap.
