NASA EVA Watch Test: Longines test 0/10 EPIC FAIL ; OMEGA test 10/10 Pass ; ROLEX test 0/10 EPIC FAIL. I laugh at Rolex Owners haaaaard

[@donjutila350]

Love, love Omega. I love the 150+ year history, but even more, I love you can actually walk into an AD and there are watches to buy. Not empty cases and waiting lists…….

[@peterfritzphoto]

I went on a Rolex waiting list two years ago. I gave up on waiting, and now I kind of resent them. Like you, I also bought a Tissot (SeaStar automatic) - which I love - and a Davosa Ternos ceramic (also very nice), but I still longed for a ‘worked my arse off for 35 years’ watch. I’ve decided that watch will be the Seamaster Diver 300M in either black and yellow gold or black and white (can’t decide) - with the rubber strap. Have already bought an Uncle bracelet for it. I’m so glad I’m over my Rolex dream.

[@JohnScheppler]

Some brands make their products harder to obtain just to hold on to that "high end" status and it appears Rolex is doing that same game. Glad to see companies like Omega standing on it's quality and merits not marketing tricks. Great video and keep'm going.

[@juniorjohnson5961]

I don't think Rolex are limiting their production the just have a huge amount of people who want their watches

[@cheapwatchman_official]

Thanks, FOR

[@cheapwatchman_official]

be that as it may, they need to step in and mandate how their AD's allocate watches. They don't care what I say or anyone else though and they're selling every watch they produce. But their "retail pricing" is laughable. What's the point of it. Why even have a dealer network. Auction every watch to the highest bidder. The arrogance for me is that they pretend they are a traditional manufacturer but their go to market strategy is broken. They shouldn't pretend like they have dealers.

[@garywilson6146]

Their resale values are extortion. I don’t think it’s at the fault of the AD and sort of understand the need for an interview to join their waiting list. The AD would be writing you a blank queue as well as handing over the watch at retail, you walk out the shop and double your money on the used market. It’s a know fact organised crime we’re using Rolex to wash their cash and come out with a profit. So who is to blame, us for buying one n the used market for silly money because of need or Rolex for limiting supplies to keep them in demand.

[@davidprather9079]

I think Omega and some other top tier companies are geniuses because they offer a watch that not only rivals the quality of Rolex but they create absolutely beautiful works of art. Not to mention the miraculous engines that power their watches. They’ve identified a market price point that has been somewhat ignored and appears to be growing. I’m of the group that doesn’t look at watch collecting as an investment. First of all I’m not rich so I concentrate on what value the watch gives to me. BTW Omega and Tudor are among my very favorites with Rolex running a distant 10th.

[@joemac8474]

I've had an Omega Speedy Moon watch for years and love it. The real NASA cert'd one too

[@ronibajralia7008]

Nice!!! Upload a short video of it i want to see it

[@odwatchguy]

Great review of the Omega Seamaster. I have always considered Omega the best watch for the money. Most people can save up and afford one and they have been around for over 150 years.

[@weslong22]

I'm a big Omega fan as well. I've come to the understanding that Rolex and I will never spend quality time together.

[@aworminmybook8234]

I have my dad's 1943 gold omega. He wore it every day from new. Still ticking!

[@a63nicolle]

My husband and I love watching your videos together (both audio and watch). We love your honesty and humor. So thank you for that, and we hope there are many more videos to come!

[@PocketUau]

The bezel is designed to accommodate fingertips under pressure, where you press down to increase grip and the fingers sit in the smooth scallops. Not super practical, but it works for timing pasta.

[@bencoestudio]

I always time cooking with the bezel 😂

[@PhilbyFavourites]

For me it’s parking the car in pay and display parking. 300 metre water resistance and I use the bezel to mark the time I parked, in the rain! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@netcatfulful]

Agree 100%. In regards about being pissed off by Rolex, you should see what is going on here in Tokyo. Boutique staff standing like some sort of guards behind a rope, and no one is allowed to enter the boutiques without appointment. I repeat: You can`t enter the shop to look around, the entrance is blocked. And this, inside a mall!!! Not even a private building. I have never ever seen anything like that in my whole life, and I even wonder if it is legal.

[@cheapwatchman_official]

that's nuts

[@dukirps]

I can't afford either. My wife bought me a seiko skx 013 when we started dating as a Valentine's Day present. I wear it whenever we go on vacations or I'm travelling without her. They cost like a thousand bucks now so I'm going to call it a massive win.

[@myronas]

The value is not on the price tag. I love my Citizen promaster as much as my Omega

[@youtubeuser8436]

I first bought the current Rolex Submariner last year. A few months later I bought the Omega Seamaster 300m with white dial and bracelet. Since then I almost don't wear my Rolex at all. If you own both watches, put them side by side and compare them....then you immediately notice that the Omega is significantly higher quality and more elaborately finished. The Subariner looks super boring and simple in direct comparison. You get the impression that the 300m was significantly more expensive than the Submariner, although it was significantly cheaper than the Rolex. That's when it became clear to me what kind of brainwashing is taking place in terms of Rolex hype. Everyone wants a Rolex, although Omega makes the higher quality & better watch here. Not only technically, but also from the processing and the materials used. And the best thing is: I can go to an Omega boutique at any time, get a super nice, friendly and warm welcome and can buy any watch immediately without waiting. And if a variant is not available, it will be ordered. And in a week at the latest, I have my desired watch, without being humiliated like at Rolex, having to kiss the salesman's xxx to maybe get my overpriced boring Rolex in X years. When I realized that, I only bought my watches from Omega (now 3 pieces) and would never go to an arrogant Rolex AD again.

[@michaelcsizma3996]

I bought the Longines HydroConquest last December and have very much enjoyed it. But I do admit, a Seamaster is on my list of aspirational must haves.

[@kylesalisbury6789]

I have this as my grail watch. I have about 12 homage Submariner pieces which means all I really want is the sub. Exactly to your point though, I was faced with having to buy used to get one. Out of my 112 watch collection, it's a rough guess to say 40% of those are bought as used on eBay or Chrono24. I am not opposed to buying used, but at this price point, I do want new. I want the scratches to be my stories and not something I look at and think it's all that was available. I love this watch, it wears amazing. That strap is the best in my entire collection. I still would take a new sub over this watch if I could make that swap. I don't regret getting this one even though it meant I would not get the Sub in the next 10 years. I actually like the Aqua Terra and some Breitling Avenger options next vs saving for a Sub. Your statement about wanting one, saving for it and then not being able to obtain one was spot on for me personally. I don't want to reward that business practice.

[@m4ttyp4nts]

grail? just stop buying homage junk!!! $500 x $12 = $6,000. that's an Omega right there.

[@PhilbyFavourites]

I’m one hundred percent with your last paragraph. And for the other negative commenter I only have four AliExpress Pagani homages - they are a lot of fun when I’m out using my hands and grafting. I don’t have to worry too much about damage on those.

[@roochmartinez102]

I share your sentiment @ 13:40min mark. So much so two weeks ago I sold my Rolex Explorer 2 and bought a Seamaster 300m and a rad mountain bike. Rolex lost me and would rather spend my hard earned dollars elsewhere.

[@edteach3r]

Thanks for the awesome channel. I own an Omega 300M Quartz (Reference 2541.80.00), the original Bond Seamaster. Yes, it is quartz, but it also has so many benefits. Apart from its cinematography significance, at 41mm is slightly smaller than current mechanical Seamasters, mulch lighter and cheap as chips to maintain. It is more than keeping its value, yet still somewhat affordable to purchase on the used market. It is gorgeous and, hands down, is the watch that gets the most compliments from my non-nerdy coworkers. It looks as good as the day it was purchased in 1999 and has killed any wish for expensive mechanical watches for me. I think the exorbitant maintenance costs alone play a part in why there are so many Omegas on the used market. Rolex owners are most probably not concerned by maintenance costs, yet for the average person wanting to buy a nice watch and keep it long-term, the cost of maintaining all these fancy in-house movements with silicone this-and-that could kill the joy of owning such a nice watch in the first place.

[@spittinvenom9843]

My electric blue dial is the go to quartz in my collection, a beauty that still takes a beating

[@harrylarsen4142]

I purchase my Omega Seamaster last year and I’m with you. Loved, loved and loved. I hear you talking about the rubber strap, I did order a Titanium band I noticed how much enhanced my watch looks. You should look into you may like it. Good job on your videos I really enjoy your videos.

[@SteelmoonWatches]

What an interesting video. I posted something similar yesterday as I also bought the same Omega. Also tired of the crap around Rolex. It’s an unlimited production watch which is made to look scarce 😂 btw - I really recommend the rubber strap on the deployment clasp. Perfect fit.

[@PhilbyFavourites]

You hit the nail on the head when you said Rolex are “arrogant” I’ve always thought that and to hear it out loud makes me smile and at least pleased that I’m not the only one thinking in that way.

[@louismeluso8633]

Love my 2014, 300m Ceramic with the blue gloss dial. It's a better fit for smaller wrists. The bracelet is wonderful feeling but no micro adjust. Omega makes a good timepiece. Good luck with yours.

[@seekelnasr]

This black seamaster is STUNNING, way better looking than the Submariner. Beats it any day. I have the black SMPC no waves dial, and the white dial 300m. Such a joy to wear them. Got them both preowned, 35% less than retail price, im a happy man

[@MegaNaydan]

agreed completely, the state of Rolex is absolutely ridiculous. I still love the look of the submariner but I'd much rather buy anything else than to support a company that's this pretentious

[@brianmurphy8154]

Sold my sub years ago and never looked back. I’m about to buy my grail, Marine Master 300…once people see Rolex for what they are, you discover watches and brands that are better…the planet ocean is my fav…good video….

[@cheapwatchman_official]

thanks, Brian

[@Mike-bw5om]

I did have the planet ocean sold it.u are right beautiful but case thickness too big now the 300 it’s something different u don’t see in lots of watchs simple and classic design and it has history …. A classic simple design never goes away just not too much not too less just perfect

[@sumitkar8146]

Just subscribed - great content. I only have two watches and love them both - the 3861 Hesalite Speedmaster Moonwatch and the diver 300 Seamaster white dial on the rubber strap - pretty much has me covered… for now

[@cheapwatchman_official]

Good choice!

[@MikeOBrien1945]

Bought my LAST Rolex back in the late 90’s. Own a vintage Seamaster Deville 18c gold, Seamaster 300, older Speedmaster, and an older AquaTerra. Omega rules…Rolex sucks!! And that’s just the way it is.

[@SDLVlifestyle]

If you buy the watch with the bracelet, you save money from buying the bracelet separately. I think it retails for over $1000. People gripe about the bracelet, but you will appreciate it more with some time. I personally like the bracelet, it's very unique. The end links and each individual link are made from 9 individual pieces of SS.

[@bernal4444]

Fully agree. I got my black smp on rubber and ended up paying like $600 for a used bracelet. Learned my lesson. Ended up falling in love with the bracelet and it was nice to have along with the oem rubber.

[@Hard_7_Iron]

Yep, the Omega divers are nice. I’ve had mine 20 years and still looks and works great. But those Longines dive watches are pretty nice too.

[@sgxxviuh60]

I purchased an omega sea master. Only dislike was the bracelet. I hardly take it off and it’s coming up on 22years old. I have the black dial as well sometimes I wish I got the blue.

[@jpdemer5]

Rolex needs to rein in their ADs ... they're a big part of the problem. Happy to see the prices crashing to earth, and the flippers getting killed as every day they hang on and refuse to sell at a loss, they end up looking at a bigger loss the next day. Warms my heart, it really does. I suspect that if you're on a waiting list, the flippers on the list ahead of you are going to start dropping out as the profit motive vanishes.

[@shanen0pxt217]

Thanks for another great video. And I 100% agree. Rolex is being unfair. My dream watch would be a Navitimer.

[@camarocarl7130]

Nice watch. I would ditch that crappy rubber strap and put a shark mesh.

[@DESCENDINGDR]

I got the same watch, but with the white dial, yesterday. I went in to my AD planning to get the black dial like yours. I tried on both black dial and white dial both on rubber. To me the white dial was more legible and the dial color just popped so I walked out with it.

[@firebearva]

I agree with what you said about Rolex. I am 71yo and want to buy a Rolex Submariner. I was a SCUBA instructor for many years, so a Submariner is the Rolex for me. I want a keepsake to pass down to my son-in-law when I am gone, but with the unwritten sales antics of Rolex, in hand with the grey market I will be long gone before getting a call from the Rolex AD. I refuse to pay the inflated price to a flipper for a Rolex, or be extorted by a Rolex AD. I am buying an Omega.

[@agustinduenas5902]

I never did hear the price for the watch. From what I can tell from a little research, it's $5,000 +. Is that the approximate price for that Omega watch?

[@danstein2467]

Great video Randy. Congratulations on hitting 100,000 subscribers and buying this fantastic watch. The Co-Axial movement is an engineering marvel, and taken for granted by many. It was developed by the watchmaking genius George Daniels. This movement is more accurate, robust, and lasts longer than a typical lever escapement.Swatch purchased it and put it in many of its Omega watches. if Rolex or other high-end brands would have purchased the rights to this movement, they would’ve charged much more than Omega did. The only reason it goes unsung is because that many watch buyers eyes would glaze over if they got an explanation of its qualities.It’s a game changing piece of watch making technology in an “affordable” watch. Keep up the great work!

[@tyranelewis7763]

Totally Agree!!!!

[@StevesAdventure]

The blue was my first fancy watch until it was stolen during a move 😢

[@KenB-bo6kr]

Rolex = pretend rarity

[@fuaris492]

its not pretend if you cant get one and you have to make a 15 minute video about how it makes you angry and trying to convince yourself an omega is making you happy

[@drpepper3838]

​@@fuaris492it's technically not rare. 1.2m watches are made every year. Compared to breitling 150k a year. But because more than 1.2m people want a rolex at any point it becomes "rare" to get one.

[@freefallin24]

I'm with you Randy. I have the exact same watch and it is a great daily wear. Omega makes great watches. I'd love to get a Speedy '57 as my next one.

[@louise_8546]

I do the same, I buy a watch for my birthday (usually)! This year it was the Timex T80 x Pac-Man, hardly splashing the cash but it made me happy :) I think Omega have more interesting designs than Rolex. I always say you should buy a watch to impress yourself, not others, no matter how much it costs or what it looks like.

[@Tunnelsnakes]

Would be nice to have one in a smaller size. 50mm lug to lug is just way too large for my wrist.

[@giangvu7902]

Omega and Grand Seiko all the way for me. Nothing against Rolex but their aesthetic just doesn’t appeal to me. Great video!

[@cheapwatchman_official]

thanks!

[@user-xh5pi2nf9q]

I while ago I commented on one of your audio videos asking if you were wearing a Breitling. Now I see you have a watch channel too! 👏 👏👏

[@bijs3063]

I have blue Omega 300 M. It is wonderful and eye catching watch and you’re never tired of it.

[@nedflanders3769]

I have the same Seamaster black wave dial. The bracelet is ok I kinda like it but it’s a bit heavy. I don’t really like rubber straps, they’re just not comfortable for me. Do you think this would look nice on a canvas or leather strap? I just ordered a few canvas straps, one of which is black with black buckle… should get here next week

[@GQguy24]

I bought this exact SMP 300 (black dial black rubber strap) brand new about 2 months ago. I ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT!! Like you, it was a total bonus getting it on the rubber strap because not only was it cheaper than the bracelet one, but I personally think it looks much better too! The next watch I’m considering is the Breitling Avenger 43 with the blue dial. I’ll probably get that one on the bracelet since my SMP is on the rubber strap. Any chance you can do a review of that one? 😊

[@mehmetaliertan]

I am between Tag Heuer gmr pepsi and this Omega. Omega black black is looking great and very light , also very comfortable on my wrist. Perfect fit and wieght. I think inam closer to Omega but love how look Tag heuer gmt pepsi

[@tcphoto]

I just bought a Seamaster White dial and am looking forward to receiving it. The Seamaster Chronometer Blue dial from '06 will likely find another home. I do own an '98 Moon watch and that has sentimental value. BTW, I love my Phoibos Leviathan that I bought last month thanks to your review. Have a great holiday!

[@zulu6ix290]

[@AlfredoRGuillen]

Omega is an extraordinary watch company and during the Rolex hype they took the unvaluable opportunity to show how good their watches are. I understand the hate and disappointment of not being able to grab any Rolex (at least for now) and how the market has discovered great watches that give excelent price to value ratios such as Tudor or even Seiko, but if someone owns a Rolex, they absolutely love them and will keep them as their grail watches.

[@MDOOMBot]

I didn't love my Rolex. Sold it since idiots are paying more than msrp for mediocre watches on ebay and don't regret it yet .

[@Leftystrat]

I kept only one Rolex in the end. Variety is the spice if life, Omega provide that fortunately while Rolex has been as boring as a post

[@jodysilvia2]

Great review, thank you 🙂👍. In depth like showing the bezel quality. I keep thinking I'm going to sell my DJ36 to get one, but never seem to. Bought it from a mom and pop store that was a Rolex AD for FIFTY years before Rolex dropped them. Like they don't know how to serve Rolex customers, right? Instead, they keep some ADs that..

[@robertwoodaudio]

I just found your channel and I love it. It reminds me of the way I feel about watches. Looking at you getting your aspirational watch was great. Mine, by the way, is on order. Not an Omega because I'm not at that level just yet, but a Tag Heuer Aquaracer.

[@moealyasini2784]

Just bought this today (white Dial) soo happy with it. The box and experience is just top. Much better experience than any of my Rolex Watches. Now at the same time i was looking at the SMD300 they showed me a Sub for $14k (brand new) and although it’s not a bad price.. i put them next to each other and I really really enjoyed looking at the Omega much better.. so I said Omega it is

[@Mega-zi7ys]

Cool! I've always watched your audio reviews! Nice unbiased views. It's time someone like you come out and say it like it is. No hidden agendas...not flipper posing as expert reviewer. Lots of them out there taking ppl for a ride. All the best to your new channel!

[@David-uz5zo]

LOVE THIS VIDEO!!! OMEGA!!! You hit EVERY nail on the head.... not to mention the time keeping of this for a automatic watch is AMAZING... One suggestion though... even if you hate the bracelet always buy on steel and then buy rubber if you like it better...you're better off buying on steel and paying more up front and then buying rubber and storing the steel if you ever want to resell.... because factory stainless steel bracelets after the fact are $$$$$$$$$

[@bestboy897]

[@PhilOrmsby]

Couldn't agree more about Rolex's sharp sales practices. They have lost sales to me for certain because of their lack of availability. My Omega AquaTerra and Speedmaster Mk2 fill my heart with joy, along with Grand Seiko and Bremont and myriad other brands. Enjoy your Seamaster - great watches!

[@paulo1901]

Rolex is over rated. There is a lot of better and cheaper watches out there. It's all branding, really. Rolex hasn't updated their styles in like decades,... That's why most models look like your grandpa's watch,... They're very cheesy and the one with precious metals and stones, are the worse,... The Seamaster is a PHONOMENAL watch! Great choice Randy. Enjoy it in good health, buddy! Cheers!

[@georgetown8986]

Great looking watch in black with the Omega rubber strap/buckle. The bracelet in metal is horrendous. In black and rubber strap, this watch is not overly flashy at all and is a very sporty, yet refined/elegant looking sports watch. Nice combination of all.

[@tyranelewis7763]

You are absolutely correct about pictures and videos not allowing you to see the true beauty you get with viewing it in person. they are so beautiful in person. I have the grey dial with blue accents, and you should see it in the sunlight.... WOW! I found the Omega SMP and AT as the perfect everyday watches. when you look at all that is in the Omega manufacture process and the tolerances of the finished product. they are underrated.

Omega Seamasters are great EXCEPT... They put AR coating on the outside of the crystal. In 3 months, I had a bunch of visible scuffs on my crystal. Not one of my rolex watches had this issue. Hopefully Omega addresses this in the future

[@bsbabcock]

My original rolesium Yacht-Master 16622 is on consignment and I loved that watch completely. Someone will score big time on that watch. Less money than a new sub. That said I have the hots for a Planet Ocean.. Though they are definitely a thick watch.

Hi, I want to ask you something. .. Can a Omega Seamaster swim in aswimming pool camicals/gloor light water and then go swimming into sea water. can this cause the anti-reflective layer to become dull. Or not or nothing happens. help help help. Wat do you think

[@marks7646]

Me too, I hate the bracelet of that because it doesn’t taper. There are a lot of aftermarket steel bracelet for that. That seamaster is very beautiful!

[@agmos01]

I most definitely agree as that is exactly the way I feel even though I've owned many Rolex watches over the years.

[@Peltwerk]

For me I think it's going to have to be a Grand Seiko SBGA463 I think it is. The ONLY problem I have with the Omega is the bezel grip. It's too smooth and a pain to turn. The GS is Titanium, great grip, and ohh so buttery smooth.

[@rickjason215]

I have the Snowflake and it is my daily driver. I have more expensive watches that I never wear. GS is better than Rolex. I actually bought a Rolex from store display 2 years ago and could have bought a Sub, the same day, but couldn’t justify over $25 grand in watches in 1 day to my wife.

[@Peltwerk]

@@rickjason215 I love my Snowflake it's a daily wear for me. I still don't know how it's not scratched yet.

[@JoseJoeable]

I totally agree with you and you are right. It’s very disappointing that not everyone or an Average Joe person can’t buy a Rolex. I’ve always wanted a sports model like the GMT or Submariner, but I can’t because it’s the same excuse most AD’s give. High demands, not a VIP client, don’t have enough purchase history BS, etc. All these reasons honestly sound very insulting to me and a smack on the face. Many AD’s fear that a customer with flip the piece for profit, like if they don’t trust you. Thanks to flippers and social media, I think in my opinion is what screwed up in Rolex becoming unavailable, and not being able to buy one. Some people, but not all act arrogant with a Rolex. Some say Omega sucks, Rolex is better. And the nice and humble ones, don’t care they just like watches including Rolex and also respect Omega too. It’s nice to buy from a Rolex AD and have the experience and excitement, but those days are long gone. I never owned a Rolex for this reason, but I also like Omega which is what I own and enjoy to have.

Congratulations on the purchase of that Gorgeous watch. Loving this new watch channel.

To me omega style bezels are form over function. They look cool are unique compared to all the other coinage style bezels but it’s such a pain to use when you're actually swimming.

[@cheapwatchman_official]

yeah. a lot of my other dive watche bezels are way easier to use

[@RichardsModellingAdventures]

yup they are a pain to use especially with wet fingers

[@pas0003]

Congratulations!! Totally with you in regards to your comments about Rolex! I love my SMP300 as well. Also black dial. What a beautifully engineered watch!

Right now I have a Alpina Seastrong 300 Automatic. My first auto and it's awesome. But my grail watch is the Omega Seamaster.

Recently went in to my local AD to look at the black one but came out with the green. It’s so much better in the flesh - much darker subtle green than the marketing photos, almost black in some light. Looks the business!

Conflicted on the Seamaster. Guess I need to get up close & personal. A lot of people do love ’em! Good video!

A brawny but contemporary tool watch with a clear case back showing the movement in all its brilliance. A great balance. The sub is classic but seems dated by comparison. Have the white dial/black bezel. The dial reminds me of the ripples of sand where the beach meets the surf.

- Yes, I didn’t like the bracelet on the 300 either. It looks sort of 90’s mall watch blingy. I also like the fact the watch is mostly brushed surfaces. -9:15 Nice Squale 1545 you have there.

I’m coming from an Apple Watch. I recently bought my first proper watch on 1/13/23. I purchased an Omega Seamaster Planet Ocean 43.5mm. I LOVE it. I don’t care much to have a piece of technology on my wrist. I like the simplicity and the fact that I don’t need to worry about software updates or charging it.
