Omega Seamaster Planet Ocean 600m Co-Axial Chronograph Luxury Watch Review

[@WALLY7714]

Absolutely best review of this watch on the net. My first expensive watch, so I was torn between, Rolex, Breitling and Omega and just placed an order for this exact model and this review helped a lot so THANK YOU!!!

[@Oldmoneydan]

what an elegant review. big, sturdy and can withstand the knocks of daily life whilst also showing off. i love it.

[@stevenikazy2943]

One of the most distinctive luxury sports watches around. One glance at that orange bezel and you instantly know what it is. Can you say the same for the speedy or sub?

Great review Thanks, Considering that watch for a upgrade, I already own the Omega Seamaster Planet Ocean 600m, non chronograph with Orange dial, XL, and Orange Crocodile band I had it for almost 5 years now it's a non glass back only thing i could recommend is the stainless steel band is much more Comfortable although the orange crock band looks more extremely cool

I'm about to.buy this watch ,at an amazing price ,$4500 aud ,its been worn once for 10 mins, Omega have just left Rolex behind, Rolex submariner feel very tinny,when you pick up this watch, you know ow you have a dive watch on. It's awesome watch

[@roadhog1143]

I actually got the watch for $4000 aud

[@brettmathews2178]

I WILL own this watch. What a beautiful timepiece!!

Dıd you?

Amazing watch

[@scriner11]

Great video!!! The bezel insert doesn’t look like an aluminum one, not metallic, is it ceramic?

[@Agentxphile]

This watch is excellent. Heavy indeed. Not noticeable for me, but for my wife its too heavy (she likes to wear 40mm-45mm watches herself). It has been through the roughing here and there (i don't wear it all the time) and I have not had a single prob. I like the sweeping seconds hand, so the chrono constantly runs when I wear it. Only issue is if you are outdoors and sweating, that's when the heaviness comes into play, as it will slide around your sweaty wrist unless you wear it uncomfortably tight.

Hi Tim, I've been waiting for you to review this watch and as always you've done an amazing job! My wish list of watches grows every time I watch one of your reviews. I was wondering if there was an email I could contact you on as I'm planning on buying the JLC master geographic in the next 6 months (I'm putting money aside every week and want to purchase it for my 40th). I'm in Australia and I'm not sure if you only do second hand time pieces or do you sell new as well? Anyway I'd like to discuss this further with you on a private forum. Hope to hear from you soon. Regards, Alex.

[@the1916company]

+alexcellence21 Hi Alex, you can reach me any time at [e-mail]. This is my company email, and I check it about 400 times per day, give or take ;-) I can guarantee that we will be able to get you a JLC Master Geo within 6 months. We only sell pre-owned, but that means we receive some watches directly from authorized dealers on an as-needed basis. The authorized dealer is the only "pre" in the pre-owned when that's the case. So yes, second owner, but not "second hand" with respect to condition, accessories, or end-user status. Best, Tim

Best watch on the planet! .....(ocean)

[@justinehayward2553]

In 2023 the resale value is a bit questionable. A shop in HK offered me a less than impressive offer for mine, even though I have no plans to sell it. 2.9 - 3.5 Sterling pounds seems to be the range. Perhaps it's the orange. I've also noticed that the non-chrono version can cost around the same used.

[@AvgJoeWatchReviews]

Excellent review!

[@ichris2011]

Great review, love that you broke down the movement. A lot of reviewers mention how great it is but never really explain how. Just wish you'd turn the bezel and use the chronograph in your reviews. Watch nerds love little details like how the bezel sounds or how solid the pushers click. Otherwise one of the better reviews of this watch.

[@the1916company]

+ichris2011 Hi ichris, thank you! The movement is my favorite part of the watch, so I wouldn't want to overlook it. When we buy mechanical watches, the machine inside is at the heart of our motivation to save, seek, and pay a premium for a long-term timepiece. I hate to write this, but I think the other reviewers just skip the engineering details part because they don't have a complete understanding of what's going on inside the case. I'm a collector and a hardcore watch guy, so I'll only give short shrift to the movement if the watch is clearly designed to excel on some other basis (e.g., a Sellita SW300-powered Hublot Classic Fusion Ultra Thin). Best, Tim

[@xiangfan3169]

still want this watch, hope OMEGA make a full orange bezel with that new magic rubber insert with 9900 movt one day,

[@kimnorth7060]

good video but you forgot to mention you could use the chronograph as a second time keeper!

[@sahtemehdiavcstarkd8712]

How?

[@kimnorth7060]

@@sahtemehdiavcstarkd8712 reset the chronograph at the exact moment when the time in a particular country turns 12:00

[@sahtemehdiavcstarkd8712]

@@kimnorth7060 but chronograph has only 12 hours. It has to recycle then. What I mean is that you may get confused if it is night or day in that country. Maybe I am overthinking . 😊 but I got your point.

@@sahtemehdiavcstarkd8712 you’re overthinking

[@sahtemehdiavcstarkd8712]

@@kimnorth7060 regardless, I really like that chronograph sub-dial with both hour and minute hands. Usually on many watches I see 2 sub-dials, one for minute and one for hour. I loved the concept of collapsing the two sub-dials into 1!

[@neuromancerXL]

Fantastic orange color.

[@masqueman01]

Love the orange... this one is a winner

[@arinattavar6192]

I have the completely same one

[@mobiusklein9140]

Nice review BUT the watch is way too big for the reviewer's wrist.

[@sylvest1001]

At 5:05 the orange colour isn't about fun, it's about visibility at depth. Check out DOXA watches.

[@HEIDERNใ]

I have the exact one but it has 007 under it and it’s dead I don’t know how to revive it

[@RussNewton81]

+watchuwantinc. Hi Tim, Great review as always! Please can you tell me, has this orange model got a ceramic bezel like the black and stainless and the blue and titanium models do? thank you! Russ

[@thunderbolt656]

Oh 1 more thing i wish Omega would in the inner rim drum area thats steel engrave Omega seamaster sorta like Rolex does with there newer watches

[@dhutsell6210]

I found one with an orange face and can’t find any other like it just wondering if it fake or something

[@RichardsWorld]

Rated at 100 times deeper than I ever dived. :)

[@the1916company]

+Richard's World As I like to say, it's like owning a V-12 Ferrari. Not that you would go crazy, but you could if you wanted to ;-) Best, Tim

[@sliderfc3s]

It's very rare for an extreme depth watch to have a display back. Yeah, cuz anyone who dives that far down won't be wearing their $7000 Omega watch. It'll probably never be tested. They can say whatever they want.

[@darkestfugue]

its a stunning looking piece but then you see it from the side, its just too damn thick, an absolute monstrosity!!!! it would look like a sun dial on my wrist theres just no way, i went for the seamaster 300 pro ceramic in black, thats the one that fits me best

[@TheKurfer]

My absolute favorite feature of this watch is the size. I sold my Rolex GMT II Pepsi for this and couldn't be happier! I have a thing for large, heavy watches...they just feel so good when they have weight to them.

[@everusualsuspect]

@@TheKurfer just got the latest model (9900 version) and me too. Thick and heavy is what did it. If it fits your wrist, happy days!

[@polievets1]

Looks like hands do not align properly on this watch hour hand shows exactly 4 o'clock while minute hand already passed 12 o'clock Why I have noticed this ? because it is quite common problem with new Omega I have brought mine Omega with 8500 movement Omega Sea Ocean to a dealer, good thing the watch was under warranty they took care of this problem, it took them around 3 weeks ( NY, NY location )

[@the1916company]

+Nick Pol Hi Nick, our better-quality studio photographs on this watch show the correct alignment of the hands: et-ocean-600m-co-axial-chronograph-diver-ref-23230465101002-46mm Sometimes, the oblique angle of the iPhone shots doesn't give great perspective on dial details, but this watch is correctly indexed. Our company unconditionally warranties all watches sold against mechanical defects. If any problem arises, we fix it, and we fix it the right way- the factory way. Watchuwant is a Swatch Group U.S.-recognized service center for Omega watches. Both of our watchmakers are certified on the co-axial calibers by Swatch US. If there's anything on an Omega watch that requires correction, we do it with original Omega parts and a full service warranty. Trust me when I say we would never endanger this relationship with Omega by selling anything less than an excellent example. We even have a portal page for Omega-specific service: ub.watchuwant.com/repairs/ Best, Tim

[@polievets1]

Good to know just what it looks like plus my own experience I have no problem with your company I did purchase the Omega with 8500 movement Omega sea master aqua Terra with gold bezel watch came in perfect condition no problem at all :)

[@the1916company]

Thanks Nick, and I'm very happy to hear that your Aqua Terra is doing well! We're in the process of cycling our watchmakers through the latest course offerings at Omega's U.S. headquarters in New Jersey, and the next phase of courses will see them off to Bienne, Switzerland... I'm kinda jealous. Best, Tim
