Omega's New Releases Are Legendary?

[@tizombie]

Best joke of the segment “OK go back to Teddy”. Brilliant Michael. 😂

[@seattlegrrlie]

I died. That was so funny 😂

[@sdrebels13]

Teddy is who they aspire to be lol

[@WoodenViking]

Mariana Trench comes second

[@leandrosep6032]

lmao that was brilliant

[@seancratty7276]

Big Omega fan here (have a SMP300, Aqua Terra, and a Speedmaster)... love the release! Well done in my opinion. Glad Omega also stuck to their iconic design and didn't touch the SMP bracelet.

[@notenoughtime7274]

Love the channel In this one I don’t share the enthusiasm on these Omega releases though Nothing is vastly new, particularly striking, or screams “must have”, and the ultra deep is ripping off the Deep Sea Blue. Wish Omega focused on the bracelet and went bolder with the dial (texture / natural stone etc) Omega Seamaster 300 (vintage) probably the pick of the bunch, swapped up with a different strap

[@PizzaHomie]

I was hoping Omega would have redesigned the 300M, at least that outdated bracelet.

[@robert-etiennedesrosiers6808]

P me

[@seancratty7276]

Nah, the bracelet is iconic. Doesn't need to change one bit.

[@austincragin7391]

This release is just for an anniversary, don’t forget that. They will redesign the seamaster soon without a doubt. You guys just love complaining. It’s like the morning ritual for y’all, anyways bracelet is unique and not like every other oyster styled bracelet.

[@franky3fingers337]

Why would they change a part of the watch that makes it a SMP 300M? Makes no sense.

[@twang96]

Do they not realize the bracelet is probably the number one reason why some people won’t buy the seamaster?

[@floridamankyle5461]

I was waiting for Omega to issue the Seamaster 300 Pro and Planet Ocean Chronographs with this 75th Anniversary dial, but no love for the Diver Chronographs, of all the releases, my favorite is the Ultra Deep with the dial Easter egg, that cheeky jab at Rolex and their Deep Sea Challenge, the is why I like Omega so much.

[@JamesIdentity]

It's not true that they "only changed the colors". The Ploprof has a completely new case, including smaller size and monobloc construction and new dial (without applique logo & markers). The seamaster 300 now features a ceramic bezel (whereas the current model has an aluminum one). And both the ploprof and the ultra deep feature the new O-Megasteel. Omegas very own new steel alloy. So they are tweaking some things here and there and probably also testing them. Cheers boys.

[@joeplatz7289]

Great video, I think this is a pretty solid release. I too would love a tapered bracelet, a thinner case, yada yada. But this is such a solid, integrated and consistent update to the entire line. I think with an anniversary that's more important than a few tweaks here and there on a single watch.

[@Mall_Watch]

Guys you missed the point with the ploprof... its a monoblock case and they brought the size down. The original was big but it was not the monster that came back first in steel then titanium. I do hope they bring a bracelet eventually for this new one.

[@Judah.Rosenthal]

I came to say same. I think those are pretty big deals. And it came out of retirement. All good things.

[@Mall_Watch]

@@Judah.Rosenthal I almost bought the previous model with the grey dial and orange bezel. I love the way it looks but the height of the watch stopped me. I am super excited to try the new one on and I expect to end up with one.

[@complicatedtime]

19:48 Revolution Watch was definitely there for the launch and covering it. In fact, Weih Koh was the presenter who introduced Omega CEO Raynald Aeschlimann to the stage, Revolution’s Eleonor Picciotto was also there covering the event.

[@lucasdriskell]

They clearly didn’t prep for this video. Ben Clymer from Hodinkee was there, Robert from Fratello was there, Andrew from Tide and Time was there. I really wish they did more research before their videos, it makes them look stupid.

[@mossrockss]

About 15-20 years ago, Apple stopped holding bi-annual Macworld trade shows-where they were expected to announce new products-so they could make product announcements whenever they wanted during the year, when the products were ready to show. Omega seems to have taken notes from that playbook, which is smart. The fact that these watches were ready to show the same week in stores shows they learned their lesson from the 2022 botched Aqua Terra release, so it's a win all around IMO.

[@AcmeRocket]

Time & Tide was on Mykonos for the release.

[@Jay_Bee1]

You guys are so on point. Amazing to see the frequency of the videos!

[@UserKR13]

Michael: Wow~~~~~~ 😮

[@fawzanlambe503]

I wear a ploprof titanium almost everyday for last 5 yrs and I love it 😊

[@cheapaudioman]

I just got a JC Deepsea from my AD (lots of initials there) and now I want to put a deposit in on the 300M Pro. Do I have a problem? I have a problem, don't I?

[@drkesrf]

I agree that an open case back is usually preferred but these are cool since it’s for an anniversary piece. Very cool. And the light blue is nice. Well done omega.

[@vipulgadekar3074]

I was in La Jolla over the weekend and was able to see all of the models and the moonwatch in their new pop-up. Yhe guys were super great!

[@Patriot6669]

Picked up the summer blue Planet Ocean today. 😊

[@JoeySparks]

The indices on the smaller AT are the shape of a boat. So, Michael, they do kinda start above the water, move to the deck on the 41, then on down from there

[@TheoandHarris]

…absolutely mind blowing what you’ve just said

[@JoeySparks]

@@TheoandHarris The mind blowing part is that it’s kinda been that way for some time already and it took this release to get us thinking that way

[@bowedonut22]

The previous ploprof has a lug to lug around the same size as a submariner. If you like big watches, it’s perfectly wearable. The thing no one is talking about is they made the ploprof smaller. It’s lug to lug is only 45mm, which for me I think is more wearable than a submariner.

[@MrDrPinnacle]

I've always wanted a ploprof. Almost bought one several times throughout the years. This might be the one I'd get now.

[@mrdisco99]

Lots of AT 38s have that dial already with the oval indices and smoother hands. It's not lifted from the 34mm.

[@bbrebozo6417]

Do you know is these engraved cases and the dials are going to be a short production run? They don’t want to do official limited editions anymore, but limited duration production would limit numbers are make them collectible (e.g. the silver snoopy isn’t limited in numbers but hard to get so it’s collected).

[@ams914]

I think if they kept the exhibition caseback but laser etched the Poseidon like GS does, that would've been a nice compromise.

[@patrickr4762]

8:16 Lol! ‘Click off go back to Ted’ had me rolling.

[@ryanfritz8903]

The Electric Blue Peter Blake was the best Summer Blue they ever did. That dial and bracelet are so original that I’m shocked they haven’t brought it back.

[@tomlucas4269]

you are wrong about the ploprof. Almost everybody can wear the watch. It is only 44mm wide very comfortable ,flat on the wrist. my wrist 17cm

[@erwinvlsqz]

U can tell if ur watching T&H vid if you hear atleast two of these words: 1. "Reaaally?" 2. "Wowww" 3."Thats Craaazy" 4. "Interestingg" 5. "Fascinatingg" 6. "INGcredible"

[@TheoandHarris]

I'm open to new catchphrases

[@michaelcozens7537]

The new steel Ploprof has been reduced in lug to lug size from 48mm to 45mm. Do a little research chaps

[@mailtrap22]

I appreciated that AMNH zing!

[@z06cowboy72]

Nice Omega commercial.

[@MaartenAnna]

Great stuff guys! (BTW Is that your dad’s GMT? Looks stunning). I love the Seamaster 300 in this color (but not a big fan of the Helium escape valve)

[@apm9475]

I agree guys ! The new omega releases are just great looking watches. But are we all guilty of being a bit pretentious and picky ! Great video guys.

[@kahuhipajae4088]

Great job gents, Meh..on the Omega line but the colors are beautiful. Big fan of Huckberry now thanks to you guys, great brand.

[@nedflanders3769]

The guy on the right is not allowed to drink any more coffee. He’s cut off!

“Colour is so much fun; we should introduce it too our lives..” says the man wearing a black watch and shirt. 🤪

[@mazinsaleemi1518]

Long time viewer, first time comment writer. Where is Theo and Harris? It’s just Christian and Michael. Also I have this weird feeling that Omega isn’t finished releasing watches for this year they might bring out a special edition diver 300m as it’s now 30 years old.

[@jayv9619]

Christian found some hair gel lol

[@Judah.Rosenthal]

Shiny

[@sebastien6483]

"Watch people are always upset." = Tenet #1 of horology. I thoroughly enjoyed this discussion. I think the storytelling with this collection and the gradient was brilliant. Usually I prefer display casebacks but the engraved back on these is super desirable. If I didn't have a seamaster I'd be camped outside of an OB right now like I was waiting for a moonswatch. 😛

[@henrymason3031]

Thoughts on weather a vintage reissue Seamaster should have been included?

[@michellep2682]

I think they knocked it out of the park on these. Got to see a few of them in person. Plan on getting the PO.

[@pbtony0340]

i like the dials

[@mikec3454]

“Go back to Teddy” 😂😂

[@tylerbetthauser7647]

I'd like an Omega again, but still can't kick the desire for a Rolex. I'll never get the call so no watch for me, i guess.

[@charliezobel511]

If you had a bit history with your AD, an independent AD preferably, you’d get that call for a Rolex far sooner than you imagine.

[@augieonorato2377]

That shirt is sick!

[@claudtalkz2194]

It was driving me crazy then it hit me- James Franco - The Deuce

[@loukasantoniou8054]

here is what i d like to see smp: the seamster 300 is thinner and smaller et i has the 8900 series of movement which is arguably a better movement than the 8800. So i would expect a change there. generaly: smaller sizes would be appreciated or improvement in terms of bracelet fit and finish. Also maybe a new material, titanium fot example , in some of these watches. I like the caseback prsonally although i think the aqua terras should have kept the see throuh caseback as is more inkeeping with their character. And its not to say that the watches are not great, but they could do a few more things.

[@Cmdtheartist]

Has anyone called the Ploprof the "Millennium Falcon" yet? It looks just like it, except the spaceship MF is smaller.

[@rastephens82]

"Go back to Teddy." --Omega, probably (lol)

[@btmontres1423]

IMHO Just wished the case back engraving was better done. More definition, precision, and crispness not unlike pre displayback models.

[@jeffreygoss8109]

That bathroom graffiti is more fitting for a swatch.

[@nunezale]

The "I'd like to see her trench" comment got an audible reaction from me while sitting in a silent room 😅

[@bushpig6837]

I live in a warm country and can't get on with display case backs, they stick to the wrist like a limpet.

[@timelesssneakersandwatches]

I thought it was funny how they were comparing these to Seikos save the ocean collection 😂😂

[@JoeyJiggles]

The whole Zero move is bizarre. Just trying to exploit the people who watch further. As much as we would like to do a meet up. To pay a man a monthly fee to meet with them is so weird. If you ever plan to do a real meet up, looking forward to it.

[@nelsonprendergast9655]

I think a clear caseback and a thermally blued rotor and bridge would have been better!

[@kasolist]

I think Ben Claymer was invited. So still Hodinkee?

[@JoeyJiggles]

Ok. I can fuck with the Aquarium Caseback movement

[@dconserv]

[@michaelwidmann8084]

Big fan. Quick question: have y'all thought of taking your substantial marketing prowess and turning it inward? Not on the T&H KZbin...thing specifically, but on the larger subgenre of watch related KZbinrs. You mentioned Teddy B briefly, and it got me thinking. I would love to see your take on...most anything, really. But building up the larger community you are a part of would be good for all, right?

[@champipy]

What's with the "piszkos gyerek" tattoo?

[@andrewstone3502]

They're okay, planet ocean is best watch omega makes.

[@mkyhou1160]

It’s the ‘fattest” watch. That’s a general issue Grand Seiko and Omega share, chunky sports watches with disappointing bracelets. When you add in confusing product line up and multiple special editions with new dial colours, I sometimes think they are the same company.

[@nedflanders3769]

The truth is that this release is a let down. And I’m an Omega fanboy, big time. It just seems like there should have been something more significant than just a new deal color for this anniversary. And same old issues with the bracelet on the SMP300 (outdated) and the AquaTerra (no micro adjust). Omega please make the crown on the AquaTerra a little bigger and not muffin shaped! 😮

[@Valera_Scotland]

Step forward is the solid case backs. But still too chunky. Hope they can recreate watches like the 2254.50 with modern updates

[@peytonmanning1917]

[@PabloTBrave]

Legendary? Hhhmmm my dictionary must have the wrong definition. A major milestone and we got....... Blue . They are very nice but what a disappointment considering the occasion. What would have marked this land mark properly would be industry standard 70 hour power reserve , thinner movement , tapers on bracelets and proper micro adjust . I do like the watches though and I would have been impressed in a normal year

[@rickjason215]

I wish Omega would have a larger helium escape valve. They are far too small. I can’t underestimate how important a large valve is.

[@JackoFrenchtonDoggo]

Guys who literally do work for Omega praise the new releases from Omega. Shocker.

[@complicatedtime]

I actually thought they were critical and comfortable sharing their opinions, without seeming overtly positive. Despite them saying “Pro Prof” instead of “Ploprof”…

[@mrgustavoperez]

They all looked like the cristal fogged up on the inside.

[@davidbarclay3651]

Seiko did it first

[@TheRacerRich]

A caseback should only be sapphire instead of engraved if the movement itself is more beautiful than an engraved caseback, which none of these high volume watches is doing.

[@JackoFrenchtonDoggo]

El Primero movements are gorgeous but I agree with you for the most part.

[@affegorilla1299]

Nothing legendary just another color and not even a open case back. Worst thing the 300M STILL has this ugly bracelet! The ultra deep is cool I must say!

[@joggle4321]

Same Omega, same issues. Instead of playing like Tudor and fumbling around with dial colors, they should address their messy portfolio and the average thickness of their watches, which is at this (price) point laughably. I'm not sure where they are going, but they make profits, but Hublot does so as well...nuff said.

[@Mega-zi7ys]

Omega doesn't wear thick. On paper they appear that way. My speedmaster 3861 is bigger and thicker on paper than my 16610 sub... but when worn the 16610 wears chunky and the speedmaster wears slimmer and smaller. Nuff said .. not double hearsay rumor 😂

[@joggle4321]

@@Mega-zi7ys I mean, I've tried on a Aqua Terra before and the Aqua Terra Worldtimer. Both wore thick, but I get that it doesn't bother some people, same with Tudor. For me it's just that magical 12mm barrier a watch mustn't overshoot.

[@frankponeil]

These dudes spend a half hour with the camera on their faces and 2 milliseconds actually showing the watches they’re discussing

[@christianebert8086]

To may comment below: I know that Swatch is from Switzerland, but Omega at the high mechanical watch segment should not behave like Swatch. Great Watches but the marketing is for me so dissapointing. Why has Daniel Craig designed the Bond watch and not the guys from the British Special Service? I cannot understand this. And candy blue watches for a 75th Seamaster anniversary - this is it? Better buy a Hanhart 417 ES.

[@samuraimaster99]

yeah idk, I feel like this release doesn't appeal to me. If i am getting an omega, I want to see that movement. Getting an AT with a closed caseback just doesn't vibe with me, even if its some anniversary thing. Also, I just prefer the colors of the other seamasters anyways. Although, I do agree that the marketing for the release seemed cool.
