Love it, brother. I so wish more brands did this. Love the whole idea of a "modern / classic / brand new" models (and Omega totally needs to recreate these models)

IMHO the Watchco Seamaster 300 is a Watchco. But it is not really an Omega. It may be made out of Omega parts, but it was not built in Switzerland and not by Omega. As far as I know the design was not really created by Omega but by M.O.D. and Omega built the Seamaster to those specs. This is probably the reason why the Seamaster 300, the Rolex MilSub and the CWC Royal Navy Diver look so similar. All three watches are based on the same M.O.D. specifications. I think the Watchco looks great, but so did the Omega. And yes, Omega should bring this iconic design back. I am glad I went with the MKII Project 300. I think it's as close as I can get to an original.

I don't completely agree as the movements were built directly by Omega the rest is done by and approved service centre just as would happen if you sent an original in for servicing. This is exactly what Rolex does when they replace vintage dials with new old stock. So to me they are just NOS at a price point that makes it comfortable to use as a daily watch.

@@andrewgiblin3468 And I don't completely disagree with you but IMHO it's just different watch than an original Seamaster 300 from the 60s. Nothing wrong with that tough. I think it's something different when Omega builds a watch in the factory in Bienne with their knowledge and quality control and this watch is later serviced by a service centre like Watchco, as when Watchco builts a Seamaster out of parts from scratch. To me, the outcome is not exactly the same. It does not make the watch bad in any way. It just makes it different. But that's just my two cents I hope we can agree on one thing: It's a great looking watch! Ps. and I would not mind having one in the collection ;-)

@@andrewgiblin3468 well that would be great but unfortunately as unlikely as another release of the wonderful Rolex 5517 Milsub. Prices for those wonderful old watches are just insane. This is why I decided for me to go the homage route and try to get the best version possible.

Awesome video, I've noticed this a bunch of times. The real vintage 166.024s have rounded corners on the date window. Fakes on etsy have the squares which are also blackened on the back and not the brass. I've heard the watchco ones have this as well, but have never seen a 100% certain watchco model. Any information on this issue?

I just finished my third . Very difficult near impossible to get cases anymore. One is on the 1171 the other is on the shark mesh this last one Im still debating what bracelet. I like the Bond bracelets I have a back bezel dial hands crowns still left but the middle case I will have to donate a kidney

If people classify those as Franken, you could ask yourself how much genuine those people would classify a serviced vintage watch that received service parts.

@craftandtailored 4 жыл бұрын

kind of in its own category from my perspective

@LesterLovesWatches 4 жыл бұрын

Exactly. If you ran over your original Seamaster 300, and it came back with a new case, dial, hands and glass, would it be a franken Watch? Of course not. So neither is the Watchco.
