Both are great watches but the the dark green on the omega has a more luxurious hue to it.
Indeed. At 1:14, the Rolex looks so cheap
The clear technical winner is the Omega; the emotional hype piece is clearly the Rolex. Money being no object; Rolex is always a winner, but the Omega is a much smarter purchase and is technically the better pick. I have dived with both watches and the Omega has much better dive lume if that matters to you.
For me the omega seamaster wins by far. In the technology of the movement. The design. And the color.

You should try and wind the SMP and then wind the Sub. It’s like comparing a 1980 Tractor to a S Class Benz😂 The SMP is on another level.
The wind on the Omega is great (ticks) and Submariner is also great (smooth). Try winding a Breitling B01 movement if you want to feel something really impressive. Omega vs Rolex feel is like saying Porsche vs AMG Mercedes. Both amazing but both different. Neither is a Pagani.
@@BufanMuayThai The Omega Seamaster is made for the wannabe boy. He just turned 21 and tries to start drama at the bar and brags about how much he can drink, but he never puts money where his mouth is.
The Rolex is the 50 year old vet who's been around the block. He's a wise man who knows everyone at the bar but chooses to keep to himself, and he puts the annoying boy in his place by drinking him under the table.
Owned a Rolex Sub black dial and now own the Omega Seamaster 300M black dial on rubber. I like the Seamaster much better. Wears more comfortably, looks nicer, and better movement IMO. Plus was a fraction of the cost.

Did you sell your black sub? I'm in the same situation now and wondering what to do
@@siddarthh9089 Don't ever sell a Sub for a garbage watch like OMEGA, He wears it in that cheap Rubber because that bracelet is NASTY.
@@torontowatches9709 Here you can see a typical Rolex fan. People like you are the reason why I would never buy/wear a Rolex.
@@youtubeuser8436Not a typical Rolex fan at all, only Rolex I have is a 226570 Polar, next to Vacheron 56 Blue and JLC Tribute green. I’ve owned both Sub and Seamaster 300M to know how garbage the Omega is and the pretender it is. As a brand they’re always chasing Rolex in designs, colour schemes etc.
I think Omega gets the win, with the darker tone of green and white corras dial, it gives it a unique balance. I have a white dial smp 300 and in finding ways to justify getting the seaweed😅

Thanks for the video! Had the pleasure of getting hands on with the green Seamaster today, it’s very classy in person and more professional shade compared to the hulk. Still think the biggest selling point of the Seamaster is that you can actually buy one!
Your welcome!
I own the Omega, it's stunning and hasn't been off my wrist since I bought it. The main difference for me is that it's readily available (although not every AD has one in stock and you have to shop around) but also it's a fraction of the price of the Hulk. Save yourself c£15,000 and buy the Omega is my advice.
The Omega Seamaster White Dial is still king 🤴
Agreed!
Have a Blue Dial SMP none wave but for Wave Dial I love the White!!
Blue 🌊 is good looking
Yes. However, I would not reject the green one if offered. 😂
👆MSG my ᴛʀᴜꜱᴛᴇᴅ ʙʀᴏᴋᴇʀ, ᴀɴᴅʀᴇɪ ᴊɪᴋʜ, immediately for life changing investment business👆✍️
I would have difficulties wearing the Rolex with such a bright green colour as it would stand out excessively whereas I much prefer discreet elegance. I also distance myself from hype hence I would go for the more discreet, muted and technically superior calibre of Omega.
I have a 2022 seamaster white dial and I really can't fault it. I like the helium escape valve and I enjoy the bracelet. I have quite thick wrists and the steel bracelet feels like a tank track. Really solid and strong. Not uncomfortable at all. Plus i love the sapphire case back so you can see the beautiful coaxial movement. Just an all round phenomenal watch
Both are iconic, both are excellent tool watches, both provide versatility (dress them up or down) and both have superb movements. The Rolex color pops where as Omega muted. I wish I could say it comes down to personal taste but it doesn't. The Omega is half (approx.) That of the Sub. Maybe more depending on the model (like the hulk). The other HUGE difference is availability. Omega can be purchased today at any boutique or AD. Rolex .... Good luck to ya! Omega for the win! Cheers.

I personally like the Helium escape valve, for the very reason you mentioned.
BTW, try your Seamaster on the Omega mesh bracelet. It’s something special!
It's got to be the Omega Seamaster, white face, black bezel all the way.
@@stuartmcevoy9168 That’s my piece. I agree 100%.

The helium valve belongs to the DNA of the watch, just like the waves on the dial or the iconic bracelet! I love it!
I own both, love them and the two greens are different. However, I like the green on the Seamaster more; the wave pattern and the color change with light makes it more interesting 😅😂
whyt do u do for a living mate??
I have a White gold Rolex sub with a blue bezel, and the Omega seamster green. I love both watches and find myself reaching for the omega way more often than the Rolex . Omega is truly a fantastic watch !!
Really great video ❤ I own a green seamaster, but not a Hulk (impossible to get at decent prices) 😂 so for me the Omega is the winner 😊

I will actually get my omega seamster delivered soon, so I‘m very looking forward to it. Also cause this will be my first swiss made/luxury timepiece. I just love the insane specs, and that omega created these higly tested movements, regardless of the fact that they are machine finished. And in terms of esthetics i never had a problem with the HEV and think of it as a detail that makes this watch uniqe
Having owned multiple omegas in the past and owning multiple now, you wont even notice the HEV, especially if you do desk diving it is below the sleeves 99% of the time :) good choice to get one !
You will be pleasantly surprised on how amazing the finishing is now one the SMP. Also, the movement. HEW is only noticeable the first 24 hours…
I think the omega is better. But I'd only have it on rubber. I feel the the bracelet needs to be more like the speedmaster. The rubber has a great taper
👆Msg my ᴛʀᴜꜱᴛᴇᴅ ʙʀᴏᴋᴇʀ, ᴀɴᴅʀᴇɪ ᴊɪᴋʜ, immediately for life changing investment business👆✍️
I love the bracelet!
Besides the fact that it is part of the watch's DNA, just like the waves on the dial and the helium valve, the strap looks fantastic! It's not as boring as most, it's complex and intricately designed.
The only suggestion I would have for the bracelet is that it should taper towards the clasp. Then it would be perfect!

Wrong! I own an Omega Seaweed and in most lighting conditions it just looks like a pale kind of black.
@@roguewave1060 I own it too and I like it but I can admit that there is a little thing that I don't like. My watch has a black dot on the second hand and I already sent it to fix that.
When it comes to these specific watches I'd choose the Omega.

Great video on comparing these 2 watches. While I was enjoying this video I looked at my BB58 blue on my wrist and I see a clear winner. It's the BB58 blue so I won't be acquiring either of these 2 watches. 😂
The Seamaster’s dark green gives off the feel of the classic Ralph Lauren green. It’s the more unique and classy green color between the watches. The Omega is my preference in style.
So happy to have them both the 2022 models, just both in black and Omega on rubber strap. But since I only have Rolex since yesterday, I can only compare three things. Omega is more comfortable (sure rubber). Dial in Omega is even better to look at with those waves. Turning the bezel is a bit easier on Roley Rolex feels maybe for a touch even better built. But all in all both best diver watches . My score 1:1....a and maybe one thing, the movement when listening close to ears on the wrist while turning your arm fast in way more loud on Rolex you dont hear nothing.

Have the Sub and Seamaster. Both icons. If you leave the hive mentality and look at both, you love the Seamaster just the same, if not a tad more because everyone has a Sub. The 300m is bold, brash and unique. I love it more the more I wear it.

Clear winner taking everything into consideration (omitting the resale value) the Omega Seamaster. Cheers

How is it clear winner? 14mm thick, ETA movement, a bezel that doesn’t work, goofy swords hands and a bracelet that’s hideous. It’s cheaper and that’s about it
It is an Omega co-axial calibre, unless it’s written ETA on it. Now, these are made by ETA exclusively for Omega because both are part of the Swatch Group so they operate synergies…
@@patrickjean-philippe7679 call it what you want its made by ETA, ETA MOVEMENT with OMEGAS name on it ok that great.
I have both and for me the Omega especially on the green rubber pips the Rolex to 2nd place by a fair amount 🥈.

Forget about the colors, which are entirely a matter of personal taste. I am concerned that green will look weird and outdated at some point, and would prefer to stick to black or blue. I have a Sub and SM Planet Ocean, roughly same vintages (about 20 years old). Both are fantastic. The Omega has slightly better readability, but the Rolex fits and feels better on the wrist. As an aside, I recently bought a Longines Hydroconquest, which is about 4x cheaper than the Omega and 7x cheaper than the Rolex (which of course is not even available). And the Longines looks and feels almost as good as the other two. So if you care about the watch and not the social status associated to it, consider that as well.
Green will never be outdated it's green not tiffany blue or some shit like that lol

U
Question of design: In terms of Longines go with the Legend Diver, a Hydroconquest won't make the Deal for me, when I can wait to save the money.
How available are the green omega 300 SMP going to be as you can't just buy one as they are being put on a list. ?????
The selling point of being able to get one is not exactly correct.
One you could add into the mix is the Oris Aquis Hangang

very good comparison to both
You have to ask yourself if they were both the same price and depreciated yhe same which would you have?
I know you've got a ton of Hydroconquest vids already, but, hear me out:
Comparison Video: Longines Hydroconquest vs. Formex Reef
- Identical Water Resistance
- Nearly identical price points $1700/$1725 (Reef with Rubber)/$1850 (Reef with Bracelet)
- 120 click ceramic bezels
- Swiss made

Green is too dark on that Omega. Hulk is miles ahead of that watch honestly
Love the subs colour and IRL looks a lot better IMO.
A couple of weeks ago I got a PRX from CH in Aberdeen and they just opened a new store where I could try on a SMP300 and I fell in love with it so I’ll might get it but in black and rubber strap.
Thanks so much mate, appreciate that. You won't be disappointed by the Omega. I have one, it's epic!
CH is in Aberdeen ? Where is it located ? In fact I only know Jamieson & Carry on Union Street as well as Finnies on George Street.
@@patrickjean-philippe7679 they used to be in Bon Accord they now moved to Union Square and now there’s an Omega shop right next to them
For me the shade of green used on the Hulk just seems like an odd colour to see on someone’s wrist, and would have looked better as a more subtle green.

Own the Seaweed, as well as Rolex. Among the Pro Rolex, the only thing Rolex does better now than Omega, is the bracelet design. On every other aspect, the new SMP has Rolex over a barrel. Dial is better, hands are about the same, case finish and the movement is incomparable better. But to each he’s own I guess.
I really like the Seamaster. The only issue I have with Omegas is the bracelets, I just don't love them. I think Rolex bracelets are perfect. I need to try the Seamaster on again, if I can get used to that bracelet I could see myself picking one up eventually
I got the rubber and mesh OEM. Try them out
I love the bracelet!

At the design : omega
At the movement: omega, due to display caseback and 15,000 anti-magnetic capability
At the branding: undoubtedly rolex
At the size and wearability: for me is omega
At the elegant and eye-catching: rolex
At the price point and availability to get one within reasonable period of time: definitely omega
Conclusion: to me, omega seamaster wins
These are both magnificent and enduring watches, but they are sufficiently different to make any direct comparison very subjective. It all boils down to an individual's personal taste as is always the point with any watch. Let's not even mention the differing price points and availability.
I'm fortunate to own a 16610 Submariner since 2000, a Kermit and also a more recent Omega SM300 in blue.. Comparing size, thickness, weight, movements and bracelet specs is all well and good, but essentially both do a fine job and are equally iconic. Curiously I'm not a fan of the more livid green Hulk and conversely neither the more muted Seaweed.
Great video as always, but you do make me wince when you repeatedly remind us that you're getting old at 25...lol. You may change your mind about the merits of the Cyclops when you hit your 40s 🤓

I absolutely love both. Got the Omega, it’s colour is so much better in my eyes. Waiting for a Bluesy as my Submariner, that’s a far better colour than the Hulk…don’t really see the hype of it.
I remember the first time I tried the Hulk and fell in loved with that green. Depending on the lighting it can be quite dark and in direct light it is so bright and vibrant. As much as I love the Omega I hate the bracelet. I would pick the Hulk for myself, I love it.

I actually think the opposite. The He valve is most likely hidden since it’s on the forearm side and probably under a cuff. The Rolex cyclops is unmistakably Rolex and distinctive from far.
I own an Omega Seaweed and in most lighting conditions it just looks like a pale-murky kind of black. A bit disappointing.
I have a Rolex Datejust with the Rhodium diamond dial and the SMP300. I selected the watches wisely to be not in the situation choosing between 2 sports models and ending by the Omega.
Hands down, I like the Omega more than the sub, but Rolex has an amazing building quality. Yes better than Omega

I was lucky enough to get a Hulk at retail ... I've had it for four years. It's a magical watch that flashes emerald in the right lighting. I can't ever imagine getting rid of it. I do like a bit of color in watch dials - the color inspires feeling / emotion. For that reason I cant see myself going with the muted omega Seamaster. Also there's something about 904L steel that has a luster that regular steel watches just don't have. I love the Seamaster as well - particularly the blue and white versions. I think the case is elegant and unique. But - between the two - the Hulk is almost a perfect watch.

Let's look at the nick names given to each of the watches. Rolex HULK... Omega SEAWEED... one of these is at the bottom of the ocean, and one of these is one of the strongest superheros. Let that sink in.
I prefer the Rolex aesthetically but I don't like the shady market. I ended up purchasing the Omega from the Omega shop, it was a great experience.
Very very difficult as both are Beautiful watches, but for me i like the green on the rolex more, pity rolex have shot themselves in the foot with there price and availabilty.

In your comparison there was no mention of the Omega domed crystal This adds a subtle level of sophistication and elegance the dated Rolex lacks
Omg I love this channel!
The added expense of the HEV on the Omega curtails the homage market from banging them of like hotcakes.
Whereas a sapphire crystal with a cyclops is pretty inexpensive.
You can purchase a fake sub for $75.
Omega made a better choice to keep their watch identifiable.

The answer is very simple from someone who bought a Hulk second hand for 6500 GBP and sent it back 3 days after. This was many many years ago. So these two going against each other, Hulk wins, no arguments. But! When i was able to buy the hulk long before the hype, and held it in my hands, it didn't feel like it was worth that kind of money. So it went back.

Noen of these watches are worth the money that charge . RRP I mean . Grey market is a mugs game .
@@snf321gotti6 Absolutely. I have no time for grey dealers myself. Especially when they go on in their vlogs, looking at even "cheaper" watches, and saying oh i can only give you this much as i gotta make at least a grand on it. Well they ain't gonna get a penny out of me.
@@_-MiamiVice-_ it's a hype culture . Everyone wants the thing thats hard to get not because it's worth the price it's because you seem important or rich if you have one .
Meanwhile the dealers are making huge money getting rid of them.
A watch no matter this good is not worth 10k.
@@snf321gotti6 You're perfectly right. Once you actually hold a rolex in your hand you'll see straight away that they ain't worth the money. I remember before the hype all rolexes were selling under retail because that was what people were willing to pay for it. I have to say though buying my seamaster 25 percent off from an omega AD i couldn't be happier with it :)
The only watch i ever bought second hand is my Schumacher speedmaster.
Chisholm, this video was a bit biased towards Omega.
I'm not a fan of the cyclops either. And the maxi case on the 116610 isn't nearly as elegant as previous Submariner models or the Seamaster for that matter. The shade of green on the Seamaster is a lot better looking than that of the Rolex, and the dial of the Seamaster is awesome.
However, the bracelet of the Submariner is far superior, as is the clasp and the bezel. The Submariner is also less chunky than the Seamaster. At a little over 40mm in diameter and 12.5mm in height vs 42mm in diameter and 14mm in height. The Seamaster's HEV is a bit of an eyesore as well.
In terms of dimensions and features, the Seamaster has more in common with the Sea-Dweller 43. 42 vs 43 mm in diameter. 14 vs 14.5mm in height. Both have fully graduated bezels. Both have a Helium Escape Valve. Except the Sea-Dweller has a depth rating of 1220m while the Seamaster only has a depth rating of 300m, but for all intents and purposes 300m is more than adequate for any diver.
I'm also not a big fan of the Sea-Dweller 43 though. It still has that cyclops, and it's too big. My heart lies with the previous generation Sea-Dweller. The 116600. It has the same specs as the Sea-Dweller 43, but with a 40mm diameter, no cyclops, and without the maxi case of the ceramic Submariner. It only comes in black though, but that's just fine by me. The only thing though... It's 4x the price of the Seamaster.
Regarding the Omega crown and wearing thick diving gloves: why on _earth_ would you want to set you watch underwater?! 🤣🐠 The 'comparison' is mostly irrelevant anyway: the Omega is a *current* model watch and you can easily obtain one, I was on the waiting list for about 2-3 months in spring this year. The Rolex Hulk is an older model and is very difficult and expensive to obtain. A slightly better comparison would have been to the current Rolex Cermit/Kermit model, but of course this one is not completely green.
I have the blue dial Omega Seamaster
If seamaster wanna fight, it needs to have its size reduced . If not, it’s just a nice watch that many are not keen to keep

I have the Omega Seamaster, it just feels right to wear and I feel handsome while wearing the Omega Seamaster

Give us that cheat sheet comparison on specs ;)
I wish the omage color was more vibrant
I'm not mad keen on either but I have handled both and I'd have to give it to the Submariner. Everything it does it does perfectly.
Clearly you think Omega won and that's okay. For me the Rolex is the winner hands down. Case size, thinner, wears better on wrist, better bracelet, has a date, and I love the hands. Don't like the Omega Helium valve, don't like the dark dirty green, don't like the shape of the bezel, it's too thick, and the hands are stupid. That's why both sell just fine
For me personally, I prefer the seamaster over the submariner, in all colour variations.
Omega Seamaster would be my choice, to put in that beautiful watch box.

Submariner. I’m sure it’s not for everyone and the Seamaster is the more versatile option but irl the ‘Hulk’ is stunning

I like the color on the Omega but that is where it stops. The Rolex is a perfectly designed watch where as the Omega is a work in progress

If value is any bit a factor, the Omega simply wins.
Until you go to sell it...then you lose money, whereas, with Rolex, you make money.
@@ron74555 Just because Rolex can make money on grey market doesn't mean it's a better watch. In my opinion, Rolex just a better brand better marketing, but Omega making better watches.
@@wisarut8572 the OP was talking about value and that is what i addressed. Let's stay on topic.
@@ron74555 if you are buying value and features for the dollar you’re probably not trying to invest in jewelry but more to use the watch. And even if you resell an omega for 800 less that also means you can buy a pre owned for 800 less which makes that also a good value. Don’t get me wrong, Rolex’s are really nice. The seamaster just seems to be a better everyday tool kind of watch and you get more options and availability and bang for your buck.
@@mraskett I'd agree with you.

Damn.. black or Green. The more i see of the seaweed the more i tend to buy this one. Really special color
Omega wins for me I have the black dial on a bracelet and love it

Give me the hulk all day and twice on Sunday . It’s arguable the trend setter and true original . Forever Hulk
I’m 38 and Rolex submariner still looks too old for me. Most ppl I know who wear the sub are either “bros” or above 50.

The Submariner Hulk has become a myth. The Seamaster 300M green is a better watch overall with the exception of the bracelet and obsolete He valve. With that being said, you can get 4 Seamasters 300M for what costs a Hulk. They are in different leagues.

It’s funny I don’t think the price difference reflects anything more than that the Rolex is extremely hyped and in higher demand.
I would ask myself the question: has the hype any intrinsic value ? Is it what I want to buy ?
@@patrickjean-philippe7679 The hype has an intrinsic value. So does the brand name. I own a Seamaster 300M myself. I have it on rubber strap. I bought the last generation of Seiko Prospex Samurai on rubber strap. The strap of the Omega costs as much as the whole Seiko. Is the strap from the Omega worth more than the whole Seiko watch? 🤔. Based on 6 months of similar use, I would say absolutely not. I find both straps...not bot watches at the same level, but tha greek symbol on the clasp of the strap makes the difference. 🤷♂️.
I own both watches and I wear both equally. I think the Submariner Hulk is the winner in my book.
Hulk vs Swamp Thing. It’s Omega for me.
