Thanks for comparing these two. Actively considering both.

Later that day at the mental hospital... "Yeah this one's weird. We've got a guy in a batman mask rambling about "helium release valves". " I'll prepare the antipsychotics right away sir".

I love your reviews and how they are always a unique take we have not heard before. However, you describe the dial on the 300 MC as "plastic with a little bit of lume painted on it" which is a fair statement as that is pretty much the look. But it is a sandblasted ceramic dial with a "sandwich" style look achieved through recessed cutouts filled with lume. So while it does go for that super simple look, there is a little bit more effort that has gone into it than it seems.

SOLID REVIEW!!! Thanks for sharing!!! :-) :-)

Lol, the elephant analogy is a great way to look at dive watch marketing.

Nick, are you planning on getting a recent mechanical Aqua Terra for enjoyment and comparison against the others?

I have the Planet Ocean 8900 and I dive to over 300 feet sometimes, so it works well for me. Never had any problems even at close to 400 feet.

Why do so many watch reviewers fail to show the watches on the wrist? So frustrating!!

I actually enjoy the white seconds hand on the 300. That's how it was done on the original in 1957, and it also reminds me of my skx which I love. Also, I'm easily entertained with watching the sweep of my seconds hands... so the pop of white makes it just that much easier and enjoyable. Just my thoughts.

Please review the ZT 0850 with blue carbon fiber scales!! Please!! I really wanna hear your take on its design and functionality!! Love your videos nick keep it up!!!

Just got a Planet Ocean Chronometer (9900 movement). Probably way too big for you to have considered but I love it. Thanks for the vid, Nick. On the latest Planet Oceans there is no play, much like the 300 here. I love my Planet Ocean, although I am just waiting for my old Seamaster Pro 300 to come back from Switzerland after service and restore...

Best watch reviewer on the Net!!!!!

If people he knows do find out about his KZfaq channel, would the batman mask really be helping or hurting?

Planet Ocean every day of the week. Now a few months after buying it, finally, other of my watches do get some wrist time. I have a 7" wrist but as I am 6 foot 2 the size is perfect, but truth be told, I could do with the helium escape valve and it could loose some weight. Both are fantastic timepieces but it is something with the Planet Ocean....

Do a versus of the kershaw dividend and kershaw link

dead and drifting to the bottom of the ocean...LOL.....I love it ! ....More please!

@ 6:33 if you've got Bruce Wayne money (while looking at reflection wearing Batman mask) :)

Exactly. Nick, are you wearing Batman mask? I noticed spikes reflect from those two Omega watches. Anyway, Great comparison of Seamaster and Planet Ocean.

Hey Nick! Could you do me and my countrymen a HUGE favour and do a quick PSA about Canada's recent decision to basically ban most one-hand opening knives from importation? Please tell your Canadian subs to check out Kevin Cleary's video on the subject and contact their local MP's about it. Thank you and love your content!

The second hands running at different times were driving me deeply crazy

That's a multi level dial on the 300 seamaster, not just painted lume.

I love that blue dial and prefer the brushing on the bracelet. I also enjoy the wow factor you refer too. I’ve considered a Rolex Submariner but they’re so hard to get and the Planet Ocean ticks a lot of important boxes for me. I love both but the Omega is waiting for me and not me for it. I like the way you talk and think Nick.

Dear Mr Wayne, I believe that I would prefer the vintage style due to its simple style and lower profile. Let’s face it, I’m not a diver and I really only buy a watch for how it looks and performs its daily function of telling time.

Hate the polished links on Seamaster 300…had it and sold it because of it…Now saving up for Planet Ocean in black

My PO 8500 has no play in the bezel and has been rotated hundreds of times.

The helium escape valve does not reduce water resistance if closed back tight. You need to make it clear.

It’s so nice to see on slow crime days Batman has a side gig as a reviewer.

I love it your wearing a batman mask LOL! I guess if you don't want people knowing what you look like to each his/her own thanks for the cool video

I like the look of the seamaster better, if it had a date at 3 or 4 o'clock it would be a lot better. Don't care about the polished bracelet cause I'd put it right on a black nato. Not that it matters cause I'll never have 5 grand for a watch.

I want something in between

Just buy both, God gave us two wrists and an ability to survive on instant ramen for a while for a reason!

Hi Nick, loving your watch reviews but I have to tell you that it is not normal to have that much play in the bezel of these Planet Oceans. I have owned 3 of these watches and none of them had any play at all!

I wish you actually had a Batman character/voice for when you wear the mask. Awesome video, but it would have been awesomer.

Are you using a Batman mask??

A lower cost alternative to the SeaMaster 300 would be the Master Baiter 200.

Still wearing the Batman mask 👌

"Omeega" or "Omegga"?

Any Chance of a subscriber giveaway lol

But Nick, I dive down 12000ft pretty regularly!

I’m really not a fan of the seamaster 300 at all. Not an attractive watch whatsoever for me. The planet ocean on the other hand is beautiful and my next watch. I recently purchased the black SMP 300m and love it as well. Thanks for sharing, Batman.

If Batman keeps reviewing Omega watches they're gonna need to change their name to Alpha.

43.5mm is too big... and the 39.5mm feels too tall for its size. I wish there was a 41mm Planet Ocean option. I suffer from First World problems...

3:28 "A wash". Speaking about a dive watch called the Seamaster and Planet Ocean... Water puns.

Imagine going through life with this voice.

besides thickness a big a noticeable difference is lug to lug length and the curvature of them. Makes a big difference how these sit on the wrist. If you miss something this simple your reviews cannot be taken seriously.

Nick how the hell do you afford this? Are you secretly the CEO of Z Hunter? And you use this channel as a way to sell your products by making them the worst knives in existence however but my making them so crappy you've caused a cult culture around them???

“I want to be buried at see with my watch so I need that extra WR!”

fell in love with the seamaster 300 until i looked at the price.. i'll stick to my vostok amphibia

Fat shaming watches, SMDH

They are both watches......not people. Why refer to them as “guy”?
