Omega - I am also in the same camp as you ED209..

I am also in the same camp as you ED209..

the SM300 upon release has interested me..but I have yet to handle one...

in the various photos I think the blue is stunning...

but as with the DSOM..the watch is tall...its not that I have big issues..but its blocky in profile..I have the 190 and I think its close in thickness but the cushion shape helps...

surprised you left it in store..I tend not to venture into dangerous territory...

Thanks for the short review...hope all is well

Two versions of the Omega Seamaster 300 Master Co-Axial

By: ED209 : May 26th, 2015-23:25

The Omega Seamaster 300 Master Co-Axial watch is a model that I've been interested to view since it was introduced last year. I've seen and briefly handled the 18k Sedna gold version at my AD, but not until recently did I have a chance to closely look at ...

I choose the SS version ...

I have few blue dialed ones and it's enough. The Ti case, as you mention is not that lightweight (the movement and the two sapphire glasses sort of neutralize the case weight). About the overall case height, is not a problem to me. About the bracelet, no ...

The SS version

Excellent choice Nilo and thanks for sharing your thoughts on Seamaster. Looks great on your wrist. hmm, a dark brown cordovan strap would look stunning with the black dial and bezel. Regards, ED-209

I've handled both, Ed, and my take . . .

. . . is that the standard steel version is best suited to a person who reveres the original reference, and titanium for admirers of the current iteration. The appearance and feel of titanium, in conjunction with the matte blue dial . . . [enhanced image ...

black or blue

Thanks Art, I agree the blue is striking. Difficult choice to make, I'm leaning towards the blue titanium. The only comparable watch that I've been contemplating is the JLC Deep Sea Vintage Chronograph. Regards, ED-209

The problem for those of us with slender wrists . . .

. . . is the more pronounced appearance of the titanium version, even though they're otherwise identical. The black dial might go unnoticed; the blue, probably not. One factor in the titanium model's favor: there's a fair chance it will be a collectible i...

comparison side by side of the two versions

By: ED209 : May 30th, 2015-20:58

Hi ocwatching, hope all is well. Agree with you, the blue is stunning and looks very nice in person with the grayish titanium and vintage style luminous markers. But you have to see them up close and it makes it harder to decide. It's definitely blocky an...

Grateful for this back to back report.. As the new SM300 is on my list, also..

Still a bit torn between ss/blk & Ti/blue, with light pref for the blue. Why ? - Well, the black dial for me, is a bit too similiar to the JLC DSA, & I don\'t have a blue dialled watch. But your post, plus the postings from Nilo, confirm my quest, to try ...

Hi hs111, thanks for sharing your thoughts, especially on the black dial I agree that it is similar to the JLC DSA. Blue looks really nice in person, hope you have a chance to try them side by side soon. Regards, ED-209
