I've had mine for 10 months of daily wear while hiking, camping, in the ocean, concerts, playing with kids, etc. The aluminum bezel everyone complains about has zero scratches or scuffs. Always amazes me reviewers talk about how this watch looks and feels military like, then in the same breath say they should use ceramic. The military would not use ceramic as a good strong hit would Crack it, unlike aluminum. I've has zero issues with being able to read the dial in any amount of light. The only scuffs I have are on the titanium buckle clasp from rock abrasion when hiking on rocks.
I’ve had mine for 9 months now and I’ve worn it every single day. I too was worried about the bulk of the strap clasp but in reality you just don’t notice it. Being ex-military the broad arrow has a personal meaning to me and makes the watch even more special. Seriously tempted to buy the 60th anniversary model as well now
It's my favorite watch, just love it. Reading at low light is a bit difficult indeed as a reading glasses wearer. price is high but for that price you have something special and no asks if it is fake or real just like when wearing a Rolex.
Had this for a while - I love the lightness and the mesh bracelet is very comfortable - I have 8" wrists - apparently the strap can be had in different lengths. I like the colour but agree with your point that the hands would be better if solid as in low light, they blend in with the dial. Pleased with it and it keeps splendid time - Am considering getting lume put in the hands as not a watch I will be selling. The steel Seamaster is much heavier and thicker.
Nice video and I agree on the hand set. Should be more legible. I also think it's quite big for a time only watch. I think Bond needs to be reminded of the date from time to time, and a gmt function as he jet sets around the world.
The original bond watch is a submariner. It’s ironic that the case back of this watch has the date for Dr No, the first bond movie, in which Sean Connery wears a submariner.
A great marketing exercise from Omega, and let's face it ,most of us Bond, but at nearly twice the price of the standard steel SM300 (forget the titanium for a moment) is a no for me. Enjoyed a good demo at my local AD recently and the skeleton hands have really poor legibility compared with the rest of the dial, especially in low light.
I really like this watch BUT for the price of $8000....I could get A LOT of watches for that amount...Christopher Wards, Seiko, Tissot, Alpina, Certina, Tudor Etc... Cool watch though. The Omega Seamaster Chronograph....is on my bucket list though!!!
You could do an entire video on all the typical watch backgrounds: coffee cups, coffee beans, pocket knives, obsolete antiques/tools, vintage camera gear, and those huge coins (doubloons?) with nautical themes on them that the edc folks love.
Fautina, fake military markings, toothpaste lid at 10 am, illegible hands, poor clasp position. You won't see that dog on my wrist. A hyped watch but lightyears from the sublime 165.014, 165.024, 2254, 2232, 2503...

It’s gona be my first expensive watch

Thanks! And I thought the proportions worked well. I wouldn't want it any bigger though.
I really appreciate the design of this model and if it was around 5k it might have been an option.
Great watch!
love this style
Such a cool watch.
Yes it is!
Imagine this watch in 39mm
It would be incredibly popular!
I don’t get why they don’t do multiple versions. 42mm to 39mm is a big enough gap to go after larger and smaller wrists.
Just make it 40mm
That’s the reason why I sold mine… 42 was too big for my 17 cm wrist

Definitely my favorite looking Seamaster 300M but it is too expensive.

Not really fancy this watch, but the video itself is outstanding! Nice setups and b-rolls.

Titanium costs way more to manufacture than steel. The intricacy of a Milanese mesh
Very beautiful.....
I think the clasp itself actually is trash on certain wrists.
the color is brown in reality, here it looks very different
Aluminium just trashed the watch big time , even cheapo copies have ceramic inserts ,
Why is there always lose coffee beans all over the table. You guys just leave coffee beans laying around…
