Very cool. I still have both of these pieces.

Thanks appreciate that. I’ve just now gotten into macro photos but haven’t done any Marco video. The entire purpose for my channel is to show knives, watches and other EDC gear in a way that can help people make informed decisions on purchasing and to show items that maybe someone’s never heard of so that can look into new gear. So I’ll always try to show things as they really are best I can and next to some common household items to really help bring the sense of size to my videos.

Agreed the PO would be way better for you in that regard.

Bezel action on the Seamaster is probably poor because it’s not a new watch. I doubt a new watch would have that bezel action.

I agree and I’m sure I’ll like it a bit more when it goes back on Bracelet.

@@DirkWerning As you said, it definitely belongs on the bracelet.

@@TheBoldHairspring very much so.

Awesome. Love them both.

The only one with the lumed bezel is this orange variety.

I honestly got it from a buddy so I’m not sure. You might have to try a boutique rather than an AD. I ended up not liking it in rubber so it’s back on bracelet and I sold the strap back to the buddy I bought it from. Congrats on your purchase!!!!!!

Thanks so much.

You won't regret getting one.

I got it from a friend. I’m not sure where he got it so I have literally no info. I’ve since sold it back and it lives on bracelet.

I had a Barton on an SKX mod build fir a bit and didn’t care for it. I went with a CrafterBlue for that watch.

I got it from a buddy. It’s an older one so perhaps they no longer offer it.

You might be at the upper limit my wrist is 7.25 in or 18.4 cm and you can see in the video how much strap is left.

@@DirkWerning thanks for the reply!

I think they are interchangeable but I have not tried.

@@DirkWerning If you try it one day, I would be interested to know the answer ;)

Totally agree

Yes I believe it was from the SMP. It fit really well but didn’t like the shade and was not as comfortable so it’s back on bracelet and will live there.

Honestly I’m not sure. But I would suggest trying and then building a relationship with your local AD.

@@DirkWerning thanx am getting a vintage omega seamaster used and a 2019 same model you had the seamaster but in cerra gold new with black strap and black dial. hope i can reconstruct the used seamaster at the omega store proffesionaly so its in its original true form.

Hmm that’s a good point. Thanks for your kind wields I do just like to tell it like it is. Just did a similar comparison with the SMP and the Breightling Superocean

Thank you sir.

Gut it from a friend. I’ve since given the strap back. I do believe it’s genuine

Ok many thanks. I will try to find one

I got it from a friend but have since given it back. The color didn’t match perfectly and that watch to me needed to be on bracelet.

They are different movements yes as the PO has a jumping hour hand so easy to adjust if traveling forward or back through time zones and not having to hack the movement. I like that feature.

@@DirkWerning ya that’s a lot more watch…

@@Watchandcutgearchannel and at a higher cost though also.

@@DirkWerning worth it

@@Watchandcutgearchannel 8900 in the PO has a slightly longer power reserve (60 hours) vs 55 hours of the 8800. I just sold my two wave dial Seamasters and have the orange and black version of the PO incoming. I've a small wrist too, but from what I can see the PO wears a bit smaller than the Seamaster 300 because of the shorter lug to lug (ignoring case thickness!)

Got it from a buddy. Not sure where he found it.

Thanks fir watching much appreciated

It’s a tough choice for sure. So I just got them both so o didn’t have to decide lolol.

Will do.

It’s an Omega strap that I got from a friend. Not sure where he got it. I actually passed it back to him as the coloring was off and yo me it just wears better on bracelet.

@@DirkWerning thanks, I found other similar questions below afteri asked, sorry. Lovely collection you have BTW! Wear them in happiness for the holidays!

@@cabasadefogo9533 no worries at all. Thanks for ‘watching’ this video lolol.

@@DirkWerning I bought the planet ocean yesterday after watching your review. It arrived this morning. Wearing now on bracelet. Watch a beaut!

@@cabasadefogo9533 congrats that’s AWESOME. I’ve since bought a second. The Deep Black ceramic gmt.

lol I think it’s great as is. One day I’ll send it in.

Yes that is true. That’s the thing numbers can be deceiving on the surface.

@@DirkWerning Great. Now that I know its about the same size i"m now seriously considering one myself. Btw is the orange rubber strap official Omega strap? Such a pain to find 21mm rubber straps for Seamaster series.

@@stonker77 yep they are official Omega straps.

@ darthgenger you must be joking, the PO looks bigger, it stands out.

That is surprising.

@@DirkWerning I’m wondering if it was the blue on the 300m being a lighter shade

@@Wildcatjames1 I would say its the slightly shorter lug to lug of the PO and the general shape of the case.
