    Respectfully I own the new ceramic sub 114060 and a seamster 2254. And I’m sorry to say the 2254 ref seamster 300 is probably in my humble opinion the best divers watch made

      My co-axial Speedmaster is in for warranty repair. Brand new out of the box and the chronograph was stuttering... Not a good first impression. While he hopefully gets fixed, I will wear my 124060 that continues to do what he did so far - being reliable and accurate.

    I’ve owned the 40mm Submariner for about 9 years, my Seamaster is a little younger. Looking at your video I’m built differently to you and the 42mm Omega looks and feels the right size on me. I dive with both, but only to about a tenth of their rating. No difference in performance. I’ve got a few straps for my Omega but the Rolex stays on the bracelet. If I had to keep one it’d be the Omega. I find myself wearing it more. I guess I won’t be mugged for a Seamaster. If I want an investment I don’t buy a watch.

  • @neildown6386

    Both are fantastic watches but pound for pound the omega is a better watch. One of the main reason why people think the Rolex is the best is because they hold there value and the reason for that is supply and demand and Rolex are amazing at doing it. If Rolex flooded the market with stainless steel divers the price of these on the grey market would go down.

    It seems your review is based only on how the watch feels on wrist, in which case I agree the Sub feels more comfortable, less heavy and less sharp on the bracelet.
    However, in terms of the actual watch mechanics I'd have to disagree - the Omega is the better watch (Co-Axial tech, METAS certification, 15,000 gauss etc).
    The only other category is aesthetics and that's purely subjective.
    Overall, anyone saying that there is "no way" that the Omega is the better watch is just wrong (for the above reasons). It all depends on what you prioritise and put value on.

      Hum… I am almost certain that the Rolex calibres are also amagnetic like the Omega. Both companies developed the amagnetic materials within a joint industry research project… So what Omega has in this respect, Rolex has. Rolex simply don’t push any marketing about it as it does not have to… Now, at this time I much prefer my Omega Seamaster NTTD as it is much lighter than any Rolex Submariner as well as it incorporates a Metas certified co-axial escapement 🤩 The titanium Seamaster should be improved with a titanium calibre incorporating the spirate system…

      I own 124060, wanted SMP and tried it. The clasp is horrible, so is the bracelet, the HE knob is annoying, the bezel action is embarrassing, there's AR coating on top of the crystal which defeats the purpose of the theme this watch is going. it's a stupid liability that will get worse with time until you polish it out or baby the watch like there's no tomorrow. The date gap between the dial and the mechanism is deep and annoying, gives off cheap feel they have to work in that direction if it needs to be better from the Sub, because it's not. The 007 version is better in this regard.
      Anyway, I walked out with a 3861 Sapphire Speedmaster - best modern Omega that is worth owning.

    Love the honesty. I’ve had a bond seamaster and the latest seamaster blue dial on a rubber strap. They were great, but every time I wore my sub they felt inferior in every way. No disrespect to Omega but it’s not even close. Nothing feels, wears or works like a Rolex.
    Also on another note Rolex always test and deploy technological improvements across their references instantaneously. For example when they made the sub 41mm, updated the bracelet size and movement it was done for the whole range instantly. No chance they would cock it up like Omega holding back the quick release straps and spirate system. Let’s not even mention how they updated the speedmaster and had no quick adjust on the clasp. Few months later, chronoscope had it! Pathetic!

    Bottom line is I had a 2008 16610ln Sub/ a 2018 116610ln Sub/ a 126610ln sub now from 2021. I also have 116710LN GMT and a 1216710BLRO GMT along with a 2021 black dial Omega Seamaster SMP. What I will say is that all of them are overbuilt tanks that will last a lifetime if worn everyday never taking it off for the rest of your lifetime. My favorite of all of them is the black/black GMT. It wears the best, has the most function, and it truly is a beautiful GADA watch for a lifetime. The Pepsi is great as well, but a little too much most of the time for my lifestyle. The new Sub 41 is too big for most wrists that are under 7.25 inches. Sure they can wear them, but the bracelet and the lug to lug make it look way too big as a daily watch on 75% of the wrists I see it on. The 16610 looks incredible on all sub 7 inch wrists and the 116610ln looks the best on all 7 inch wrists and above. The Omega 300 SMP is the most beautiful case. The perfect lug to lug size combined with the lyre lugs makes it gorgeous on all with 7 inch wrists and above. The issue is I have to wear it on a rubber strap because a non-tapering 90s bracelet looks so out of place. If it came 1mm thinner and on a 3 link oyster style bracelet like on the Planet Ocean it is 100% better looking and truly comparable watch to the Submariner. I am 52 years old and I have always loved the Sub since the 70s but I will say that the best watch in the Rolex catalog is the modern GMT. As tough as the sub in every respect and can go in the ocean everyday up to approx 400 feet. Ultra functional but at the perfect case size and bracelet for all wrists. If it ever gets a micro adjustment clasp it would be the perfect one watch collection in my opinion!!!

    And she was right…to a certain point. Movt, dial and case back display all are modern and better in the omega. Bracelet on the Sub is superior by far. Marketing on the sub is superior. And resale of Rolex is superior.
    But if you are to just put the damn watch on and look at it in the year 2024..the omega is better. It’s bold. The Rolex is conservative. I have had the no date, date, even the sea dweller. All great watches but that are all the same watch more or less when looking down at the dial. The old pre ceramic dial seamaster did nothing for me but the new model is beautiful. So for me Rolex for the brain and the omega for the heart lol

    @MattDapson ปีที่แล้ว

    Can’t really argue his conclusion while also respecting his approach to the assessment. I mean it could have been simpler by polling 100 people and learning that 100 to 0 would pick the Sub if offered one or the other instantly and for free. We know there would be,for a host of reasons, to include the foray into subjective statements on comfort and provenance many factors in one’s decision. I reach the same conclusion in both mentioned categories, but value, availability, etc are major considerations factored into a purchase decision and in many cases including these factors would result in less than a 100 in a 100 person sample selecting the Sub.

But I stopped wearing it and now I only wear Seamasters and other pieces that I find interesting, like for example the hard to find SKX015 (with original bezel insert and slightly faded vintage vibe).

    I am questioning if everyone saying they have a sub really do. In my opinion their is no watch brand under 10k that is more comfortable to wear then Rolex. Their case shape and wearability of the oyster bracelet is second to none. Don’t get me wrong I like both the Seamaster and submariner, but Seamaster is more bulky and I would say it’s not as refined. Also submariner is a more versatile watch to wear in my opinion. Also I feel 90% of Seamaster owners really want a sub and as soon as they get the opportunity to buy one do, but you rarely see someone who has a sub first think I need a Seamaster now.

    The watch itself (the Seamaster) is great if a bit thick and with the stupid completely irrelevant helium escape wart. If (and it's a big IF) you've got the wrist for it, and by that I really mean over 8".
    The bracelet however is truly appalling, Omega (eventually) relented and fixed the Speedmaster, why they persist with the Seamaster one is beyond me.
    I'm pretty convinced 8/10 of Omega fanbois commenting here don't own a Seamaster.

      You clearly don’t have much actual hands on experience with both brands. As a matter of fact, based on your absurd comment, I’d venture to say that you don’t actually own any of them. Omega is a great brand, and the speedmaster is an absolute icon, no doubt. Omega has definitely accomplished more, horologically speaking, than Rolex. That being said, Rolex undeniably builds a better watch than omega, period. Pick up a Seamaster 300 and a Rolex submariner 124060. Turn the bezel on both watches. Open and close the clasp on both watches. Put them both on your wrist. There is a clear and obvious difference in build quality and robustness. I have owned multiple watches from both brands over many years, and although I think omega has a more interesting and impressive history as a brand, there simply is no doubt that in modern times, Rolex builds a superior watch.

    Rolex considers everything the customer truly needs making it the perfect go everywhere do anything watch while omega tries to chase what it thinks the customer wants which makes it impractical. Only thing about the sub is I wish they’d make all the shiny ceramic matte ceramic instead. It needs to get back to its tool watch roots it has lost a lot of that charm with all the shine of the bezel and dial

    The Seamaster is a better watch mechanically, and a slightly higher level of chronometer certification and testing. Having said that….
    Seamaster cons:
    No need for a helium escape valve
    Bracelet style is outdated
    No precious metal on the dial
    Bezel is different to grip underwater
    Doesn’t retain value like a Rolex
    Too big for some people
    Seamaster pros:
    Takes to rubber strap better than the Submariner
    The case design is more detailed
    Less text on the dial
    You get more for the price
    No AD waitlist or AD ass kissing needed
    You can buy one right now at retail
    You are not looked at as some dickhead
    More dial options
    Submariner cons:
    You can’t get one at an AD
    Too much text on the dial
    Awkward lug to case design, limited on strap options.
    You run the risk of getting robbed for it
    It’s only COSC certified
    Few dial color options
    The price is too much for what it is.
    Submariner pros:
    Value retention
    Precious metal on the dial
    Best bracelet in the watch industry
    Best dive bezel functionality.

    I have been buying watches since I was 18 years old in 1985. Interestingly enough, even through my teens spent in the Far East between Indonesia and Singapore and occasionally diving with Comex divers during recreational periods, I was never drawn into the Rolex aesthetics. I was at school with kids from Comex divers. So since then I acquired many watches but each time I was presented a Rolex, any Rolex, my reaction was meh… even though I knew the brand reputation. I have never gelled with Rolex aesthetics. Strange, isn’t it ?

I also own many omegas and many Rolex’s so I also feel able to judge accurately. If you want the name buy Rolex - if you want a better watch buy omega.

    ... all argument about certain brands or watch is very very very subjective. Some people prefer apple watch as their best watch to eat sleep drink and even attending business meeting. Some use Gshock some use seiko some use Cartier. Watch collecting is very personal and subjective to taste like food. The best according to who? For me the best is still gshock or quartz watches.
