@erikkalifornia51823 жыл бұрын
I purchased mine on the bracelet, and then ordered the rubber strap from Swatch replacement parts. Currently have it on the rubber, and it is the more comfortable option for sure. I think if the bracelet tapered a bit, like the oyster bracelet on the Submariner, it would be much more wearable. The black of the rubber makes the watch pop a bit more too I think. I do love the clasp on the bracelet, and the micro adjustability is more appropriate for summer/water adventures, it's just not as comfortable overall on the bracelet...

Agree 100%. I have a Breitling chronomat 41 limited edition airborne. It has their highly respected in house b01 movement. It is a great movement, however i'm constantly having to demagnetize it to keep it accurate. Especially true when traveling. Something about airports, scanners, airplanes that causes my watches to magnetize pretty heavily. I now travel exclusively with the Omega, because I get tired of my watches magnetizing. Omega does it 100% right. the 15,000 Gauss spec is the the most underrated spec of the watch, and my favorite!

I am a Omega Seamaster fan but regarding the elephant in the room, The Submariner just shows you the genius of Rolex in general. It's the reiterations of Omega that make some people shun them, whereas Rolex designs have remain classic and mostly the same and as desirable as it was 30 years ago. Even the old ones still look good and that's where Rolex is Right.

William Lau I disagree, I personally think Rolex as a brand is beginning to look dated they don’t have anything fresh that shows ingenuity.

It cuts both ways. I love this new Seamaster and am considering buying it. However, you do wonder how it will age and whether it will be considered "old" after the newer iterations have released. While you never have that worry with a sub, the design has been crowdfunded, borrowed, faked and imitated to death which overall makes it just less interesting.

I bought this exact model and have had for about a month. It is by far the most perfect size for my wrist as its not too big and not too small. I did however notice something with the accuracy. When I wear the watch all day (12 hours) it is about 1/4 a second fast but once I put the watch away and don't touch it for another 12 hours it will be 2-3 seconds faster than when I put it away. I'm really baffled and so to summarize, this watch is crazy accurate when wearing it but gains a a couple seconds when not in use.

Roman Grom i have owned Rolex omega and Tudor and found the omega to fit great and not heavy. The tudors are heavier and move around on your wrist because of it.

@Peter-tc3ep4 жыл бұрын
Roman Grom I’m slim and 165lbs over 6’ and the seamaster with rubber strap gets more wear time then my Submariner. Both are great watches but I really like the gold bezel option and that it still remains a deal compared to even the cheapest Rolex. The omega movement looks great as well, definitely gets more wrist time then the Rolex. But the Rolex is slightly thinner when wearing a suit, though neither were meant to be dress watches. I feel both sit nicely on the wrist, I hate metal bracelets so I always change the bands. You really can’t go wrong with either, just feel the omega is priced right while the Rolex is a bit over priced right now. Back a decade ago when I got mine Rolex Submariner was cheaper and dealers would take 10-15% off. Now I’m tempted to sell mine for 30-50% over what I paid for it, which it’s not worth. Trends🤷🏼♂️?

Really enjoyed this review. You moved through all the relevant areas of the watch that a potential buyer would want to hear about. The length was great as many just go on and on without any real purpose. If possible, as watch enthusiasts like myself like to see the full package of what comes with the watch for the money you are parting with, a very brief review of the packaging that your prized possession will be arriving in. A beautiful box finishes the customer experience to perfection and some brands fail miserably in this area. I think Omega are now on par with Rolex with regards to movement quality, I really wish they would use 904L steel for the case and bracelets as 316L can quickly become very tired looking when worn as a daily wearer. On the whole though Omega have made their prime diver extremely attractive to the watch fans out there, but you can never satisfy everyone and no doubt comments about the shape of the escape valve for instance will be a common discussion. I am so looking forward to QPSALON this year and what the vendors have in store for us all.

Prefer the look of the outgoing model. Rolex sticking with the classic look of the Submariner (and their other models) is what gives any Submariner such prestige. Other manufactures that bring out a new version of a watch every few years devalue the model both in monetary terms and in terms of credibility. Now this new Seamaster is out, the old version will be on sale with a decent discount. The same will happen with this model in a few years which will put some off buying. Rolex never discount for a reason and they don’t need to.

Lol. Omega owners always trying to justify to themselves that’s their watch is better than a Rolex. Before anyone gets butt hurt I own a couple subs and this seamaster and even though this seamaster is nice the seamaster range has been too inconsistent over the years to compare the line to the sub which has remained minimally altered over the decades and has way passed iconic status. Omega just have a way of fucking things up. Take for instance the original Moonwatch with hesalite crystal and solid caseback. I believe that iconic speedy but omega in true omega fashion produced a million variable of this icon also. If you want to just put a sapphire crystal on it for practicality I understand but all the other variables and ‘limited editions’ just water down the brand imo.
