The Seamaster is almost exclusively the only other diver that still has it’s own DNA, where everything else is basically just a Submariner homage.

[@denis888red]

I own both of these watches. (Well, the 16610 and a 3rd gen Seamaster). I had the Sub serviced by Rolex in Jan while the 2103 Seamaster has never been serviced, yet the Seamaster keeps better time. I reckon that's down to the George Daniels Coaxial Escapement. Genius. I also find the Seamaster just that bit more interesting visually. The Sub has just become so homaged (to put it very kindly). And the other and perhaps biggest hoo-ha is I find myself having to be 'aware' when I wear it and really, who really needs that? I also own a blue BB58, which while perhaps not as good is a very cool shout for the money. P.S. One of the things I like best is that the bracelet doesn't actually taper. You can spot a Seamaster on the far side of a room and in these days of samey watch styles, anything that stands out and has it's own gig is a big plus for me.

Wore a sub as my daily driver for 11 years, and recently received the SMP 300 Summer Blue as a gift from my girlfriend. I prefer the Omega to the sub, and it has become my go-to watch. I'm going to go against popular opinion and say that I love the fact that the bracelet doesn't taper. Like you said in the video, it gives the watch a more aggressive look. I have found it to be a very comfortable bracelet. Unlike Rolex, Omega also offers various strap options. I also have the rubber strap with deployant clasp. I'm indifferent about the helium escape valve. The Omega is also much less likely to attract unwanted attention from thieves. Quite honestly, between Omega and Tudor, I'll probably never own another Rolex again.

[@manfred2434]

Glass base vs. metal lid Even if I give in to the nostalgic arguments in favor of a mechanical watch, I also want to be able to see the “magic of mechanics”. A look through the glass base provides an insight into the inner workings - with subtle to open-hearted clock designs. One of the most beautiful moments for watch enthusiasts is to look at the clockwork at work through the display back. It is all the more surprising that manufacturers like Rolex install a tasteless metal lid instead of a display back. To this day, the Rolex Group “defends” itself vehemently against the use of glass backs: there is (almost) no model at Rolex or its subsidiary Tudor that has more than a plain steel back. There is a lot of manual work behind the timepieces and it's just a shame if watch enthusiasts never get to see these little works of art. This is perhaps because the Rolex calibers are not among the most beautiful in the watch market and Rolex does not want to invest anything in beautifying its calibers. A steel floor is cheaper to produce because a viewing window requires a significant increase in precision in production, for example for the seals and the glass. Just the idea of ​​knowing that a mechanical caliber is built in isn't enough for me personally, I want to be able to see it at work. Without a visible back, it doesn't matter to me which caliber is installed, I can't see it! I praise the display backs of my Omega Planet Ocean GMT 600M or my Breitling Navitimer B01, it's always a feast for the eyes to watch the caliber at work.

[@mendipfox1650]

The Seamaster is a wonderful watch. I have a 9900 chronograph variant. Beautiful. I also have a Railmaster Denim Blue. These more than scratch my dive watch/field watch itch. The reality is, the Sub whilst classic, is massively overpriced for what it is. I would avoid, and try and get a GMT Master II instead @ retail to scratch that Rolex itch. I appreciate, easier said than done, but the market is changing. 👍🏻

[@betog.6229]

Funny enough, I'd get the Seamaster 300 but not the Pro. The vintage version is amazing. It's beautiful, it doesn't have the stupid helium scape valve, you can see the amazing caliber and you can actually buy it that very day. If it's between the Rolex and the Omega, I'd go Omega every single time.

Glad you like your Seamaster, they are incredible watches but for me their isn't comparison anymore. Rolex wins hands down and it's not because it's a better watch. The increase in size and weight on the Seamaster just gives me wrist fatigue after wearing it all day vs the Submariner, despite the 150 some odd grams, I barely notice it on the wrist. I would get another Seamaster in a second if it had the old dimensions and weight with the new tech of ceramic and co-axial movement.

I got a Sub recently in a shop by the official retailer So it is possible. I am an old client I bought a few watches (not Rolex) by them, so I took some primacy. I don't negotiate in watches, I don't flip watches so I got mine. I don't see the Seamaster as an option to a Submariner. The only think you get is you get a new watch, but not your Grail watch. And after a while you realize that it was the Sub you always wanted. And you've spend your money. So the only way you'll find yourself happy with a Seamaster is if the Seamaster is indeed your Grail watch. For me it was never an option. The only Omega I'm into is the Speedy. Greetings

I’ve owned both, and I regret selling the Seamaster. My favorite diver is my Sea-Dweller 43mm, however

[@WaterJake]

I've long gone back and forth on this, but am firmly back on the Submariner side. I love all the different options available with the SMP300, but the Submariner wins on so many levels it's hard argue otherwise. The Omega has the price advantage, and the accessibility advantage. But if you can get the Sub, it is better sized, much thinner, better movement, better bezel, far better bracelet and clasp. Looks are also subjective, but the Sub is also a design icon that the SMP300 is (loosely) based on. And it doesn't have the awful helium escape value and obnoxious marketing. Overall, it is a matter of preference and price of course, but the Sub wins it for me.

[@JAB771]

Both good watches yes, but personally I’d save a few quid & buy the aquaracer. Despite what vloggers have to say they too are an excellent timepiece 👍

[@gavinwhite9743]

Omega Ads are offering healthy discounts (20%) off list price, making 2nd hand prices not quite the deal they appear on the surface. I got my Seamaster No time to die for only £500-£1000 more than second hand. However, prices on this particularly watch are too high to start with, and are crashing relatively🙈 I own a sub too, but the old 5 digit reference. In fairness, I think they are very different watches and both are lovely to wear. The seamaster makes more of a statement for sure, although Rolex is more recognised by Muggles( non watch enthusiasts ) Id be surprised if you were unhappy with either.

[@chaitanyakonduru2271]

Given a choice between the two, I would always pick the Submariner. Not because of the "Rolex" name on the dial but for other reasons - 1) The Skeletonized hands of SMP 300 sometimes make it harder to read the time. 2) A bracelet without tapering does not look classy (at least from my eyes), 3) Submariner is aesthetically and proportionally a better made watch. If Omega makes the hands in SMP300 fully luminescent like in the Planet ocean collection (minus the thickness) I would definitely get the Omega here. Having said that if the comparison was between Submariner and Planet Ocean 39.5, my vote goes to Planet Ocean all day long.

😂😂😂😂 You’re seriously funny. Clown. So tell me, if the Submariner is so much more advanced (which it isn’t; any horological expert will tell you that the co-axial escapement is the most significant advancement in watchmaking over the last 250 years) why are people who are more than financially able to buy Rolex buying Omega instead? As a journalist I reckon I meet more people of influence than you do and they’re certainly not stupid.

Do you know why Rolex/Doxa invented the automatic helium escape valve? Because deep sea divers kept forgetting to unscrew the crown to release the gas. Do you see how stupid it is to "invent" an additional crown that you have to manually unscrew as opposed to just unscrewing the crown that doesn't solve the original problem? It's too silly for me to even consider the Seamaster as a serious watch. For me, mechanical watches are about heritage and story - since they are obsolete. If the story is so silly, then it makes the watch silly.

Which is why the Seamaster was issued to those serving in the Royal Navy and military intelligence in WWII and has been the official timekeeper for the Olympics for nearly a century.

This isn't entirely true. 1 unscrewing the crone to let gas out, can also let other unwanted things in, this is not good, which is why HE valves are one way valves. 2. Not sure about older saturation divers, but current ones, don't forget. I know most people might, but when you work in an environment that can kill you, procedures are paramount. Saturation divers are exactly like that, they don't forget things and everything is planned out and executed. Finally the heritage does matter. Omega's heritage is unrivalled

[@user-oh1lp7wf3f]

@@ALL-il1sw It is true. I am aware that the Seamaster's HE crown, once unscrewed, functions similarly to the Rolex He escape valve in that it doesn't allow water ingress, but He escape valves function in a chamber filled with air, not water. The original divers never complained about water going into their watches when they unscrewed the regular crown, they complained about forgetting to unscrew the crown in the first place.

Comparing the SeaQ Panorama Date to the Submariner is like comparing the Submariner to the Oris Aquis. However, most people aren’t aware of this because they have never handled a truly high-end watch

How HEV can hurt your wrist is beyond my comprehension. It's been my daily driver since 2017 and there's no such thing.

SEAMASTER 🔥

[@cj.6988]

Yes how in life does it come to that choice! Its completely subjective off course, imo the sub is more timeless and conservative a little less under radar and if it wasn't for the AD games and huge price difference it would be the sub for me. That said the seamaster isn't a poor second choice it's a different iconic design that stands on its own and the quality is on par and it's more playable youthful and fun plus it's has many color iterations therefore sub aside it's a great luxury watch too there's no right or wrong choice!

[@horstkaniny3614]

Just try one at retail, surprise it’s possible, and you will find out in the end, there really is a big difference, but both are beautiful ❤

Omega vs Rolex ......classic❤

Sub no date and seamaster 300 titanium no date … if you can have both wny not

Both because like your aunt Sandra I will take everything that’s going 😉

Nice review

[@u.u.u9969]

The seamaster 300M were too puffy and clumsy compared to the sub. Sub all day.

[@BosworthMcG]

It needs a 40mm case with 12.5mm thickness, and a bracelet that doesn’t look like something my grandad would wear. Then I’d buy it .

[@denis888red]

@@Pler1978 🤣

[@IrishScribbler]

It’s never been 40mm. Ever. The only models below the standard 41.5mm prior to the 42 were the ladies’ 36mm and 32mm pre ceramic. Are you a girly? Do you like to dress up in pretty frocks and high heels?

For men with men size wrists, the seamaster wears like a dream.

There's a good reason why the sub is probably one of the most iconic watches ever.

It’s called marketing.

[@madprod3696]

La valve à hélium le bracelet tout est trop gros sur la seamaster moderne il y a peut être une nouvelle qui arrive en 40mm et sans date ça pourrait être interessant

[@Roy-vh9rp]

Hold up, wait a minute, something ain't right! A. Lange & Söhne Odysseus and most watches from Glashütte Original have the best clasps with micro-adjustment - and the few others who use the same patent as them. Not Rolex.

[@ioncaterinciuc1160]

Where is the second one …the submariner ?

[@kevin-ty4nm]

SMP for me all day every day and laugh at all the money I saved when seeing some one wearing an overpriced Sub ...

[@BigFerg-hf6uv]

Rolex and Subbies have a bit of a douchey vibe tbh 😮

[@geertvoorwinden8924]

Price doesn’t matter. The grail watch is the Sub. The seamaster is not a timeless piece and It is to shiny.

[@IrishScribbler]

The Seamaster has been around for 30 years now and has only evolved, so it’s already qualified as an iconic piece. And seriously, you think the Sub is the grail watch? 😂😂😂😂 You’re seriously funny. I’ve owned both and sold both for better made watches. The Submariner is the most replicated, vanilla, and aesthetically boring watch out there. 🤦🏻 Not too smart are you?

[@geertvoorwinden8924]

@@IrishScribbler It is most replicated because It is the most iconic and desirable watch. The Pierce Brosnan model was a beautiful and classic piece. The next model is to shiny and not a classic. Buy It for retail for 6600 euro and outside the shop you lost 2000 euro. I also owned the NTTD. It is a masterpiece but the mesh bracelet is horrible. I sold It after two months.

why is no one comparing the Omega SMP to the 2024 Tudor submariner? Seems like a better and more appropriate match up against two mid tier watches

Not in the same league.

Sub by a mile. In my opinion, the SMP suffers from a goofy design. The superfluous crown, the weird handset, the pattern on the dial. It seems like they wanted to do too much. The bracelet is ugly and really lacks refinement. The movement is low beat and has a tiny power reserve.

[@zsb707]

Every single design cue makes the SMPc so characterful. Remove them one by one and you'll end up with a boring watch. Scalloped bezel, skeleton hands & HEV make this watch unique (I haven't mentioned wave dial - there's the no wave first gen SMP ceramic, bracelet - there's the rubber strap option, lyre lugs - other Omega watches also have them).

[@maitrehg]

@@zsb707 All these superfluous extravagances explain why the design of the SMP is a total failure. The Sub is pure perfection. A timeless classic. The most iconic watch ever.
