What is the compass found on the image thumbnail?

I always loved Prince Will's loyalty to the midsize quartz. It was given to him by his Mum and it has been with him throughout his education and his travels around the world as well as his career in the RAF and his life as a parent and Prince. He could wear any watch to match his uniforms and suits but sticks with the watch Diana Gave him. I respect that.

I fell in love with this watch in 2000. It took me sixteen years to buy it

Having owned a 2254.50 for 13 years now I can say it truly is one of the best dress diver watches available. I will never sell mine. Great job Tristano!

You know it's an Urban Gentry video when almost 20 minutes in you're still learning about the history of the line ;) top quality as always T!

When you see a Bond intro you know it's going to be a good video. Facts.

i gotta say youre becoming quite the master at these reviews, from the amazing intro to the comprehensive history of the evolution of the piece i absolutely enjoyed watching this. big thumbs up TGV!

I'm pulling the trigger on a blue dial in two days ! :)

Im in love with that ink black mirror like dial, its just amazing

Purchased mine last week. Absolutely love it. Sold all my Gshock collection + smart watch for it. Its truly a fantastic watch. Getting the micro adjustment clasp tomorrow from my AD. Then the watch will be complete. Keep up the good work!

Today I just got my first brand new SMP. I'm so happy with it and will let you know my impressions. Thanks for the good review!

Rolex??? Omega...! Beautiful !!! 😉 love the ending.

I'e recently bought the navy blue 41.5 mil version. Truly iconic and my first luxury watch. It does suits me, as I am marine navigational officer. Thanks you for this video, TGV. Omega SMP will always have a special place in my heart!

I just bought the Diver 300m midsize (black dial) with 2500 movement. Fits perfectly on my 6.25 wrist!!! Thank you TGV for covering "midsize" watches and inspiring me. I had a Seamaster 2254 years ago. Brilliant watch but ultimately too clunky for me at 41mm. This 300m midsize is a keeper. Can't wait to get it on a NATO. Cheers.

I have not adjusted the time on mine since 3 month now and is still within 3 seconds. This is crazy. It is my only watch for over a year and still looking at it and just admireing it. Perfect size but the crown shojld be a little bigger i have to use my shirt to unsrew it. In cloudy weather or sunny day so shiny u will get lost in the dial

Love the history at the beginning, and a re-review is a great idea for future videos! Would love to see a duel between this and the Tudor Black Bay oddly enough, a "first luxury diver" duel kind of thing.

Truly, the greatest Seamaster historical video ever. FANTASTIC

Absolutely love mine, bought about a month ago and i cant help just looking at it everyday in admiration to the stunning looks. I bought the blue version and i feel that I have made a fantastic choice as my first luxury Swiss watch. Tgv you also helped me to look towards the omegas and led me to this so thankyou 👍 keep up the great vids sir.

It is a beautiful watch, the best version of the SMPC, including the newest version IMHO. It is so comfortable on the wrist, perfectly proportioned.

Watching the video,looking at my wrist,watching the video,looking at my wrist,comparing,comparing,comparing,lol,this was my first luxury watch i bought 1 year ago and i love it so much still,mine is blue dial and i absolutely adore it.

Made by TGV reviews are great. No public relations department could achieve this work with big staff. You are a source of valuable information which nobody can coompare with. Chapeau!

I'd say the 2500 is not as simple as "an Eta 2892 with a Co-Axial dropped in". It also has a longer power reserve (48h), better than COSC accuracy (-2 +6) and a Free Sprung Balance. VERY nice for the most entry level automatic movement from Omega

Hey TGV! i`ve been watching your videos for a couple of months now, and i just wanted to take some time to thank you for all the knowledge and entretainement that you provide. I`m not a very active member of the Gentry, i hardly ever post any comments in social media, but i have learned so much from your videos, and your passion for watches and horology is so strong and contagious that i felt the obligation to let you know how much i appreciate your remarkable effort. Your channel is like a window to the world of watches, and you value every single timepiece for what they represent, either a Seiko or a Rolex, you value their function and desing without any snobisms, and your opinions are always genuine and honest, thanks to that, i now have and idea of what kind of watches i would enjoy or can aspire to have one day. Sadly, i`m in a country where inflation is super high, and i can`t even afford the most basic Casio, it`s kinda hard to believe, but it`s true, in any case that inspires me to work even harder. The only watch that i have, and very proud of it, it`s a Casio calculator watch, the one from back to future, it`s my beater watch, i love it. I`ll definitely get my hands on a Seiko snk809 one day, and maybe, in the future, an Oris 65, a Speedmaster, or a Tudor Black bay, i wouldn`t mind having just one of those as my one and only watch for the rest of my life. I hope that your channel keeps growing for the better, Greetings from Venezuela, Hernán.

Yet another exceptionally high quality video. Well done sir.

You have a very unique channel. There are many watch reviews out there but only you give us a history lesson and watch origin and I live it. Thank you for that review! I ordered my 300M yesterday 😀 Can't wait to be delivered.

Your narration skills are getting better and better.Awesome episode, well done!

It brightens up my day watching your videos, especially in lockdown, thanks from 🇬🇧

These don't come stock with the micro adjustable clasp, but you can buy them from your AD if you want. They are standard with Planet Ocean, SM 300 and 44mm Speedies

Beautiful intro Beautiful watch Beautiful video 20 yrs of age and my love for watches keeps growing.

God this is so much better than the current generation with the plastic waves and super thick case.

It is a remarkable history and an amazing review. I truly like the way you tell the characteristics. I so much enjoy your British English review.

I can only say that you have started and given form to something I thought I had lost. I sold my fathers 1951 Jaeger Lecoultre some years ago, now I wish to recapture a lost past, I don’t know how but I will get an Omega Seamaster 300.

Love it! At least that Bezel won't move when you don't want it to.

Definitely loved your review on this watch, one of the reasons why I purchased this recently for my first luxury watch!

Love the Benchmade in the thumbnail. They make some good stabby stabs.

Once again incredible skills showned in the intro!

Absolutely fantastic, and informative video. Just confirmed to me what I already knew, that I’m going to buy this watch. Keep up the great work, looking forward to many more videos!

Man that intro was INSANE! Also, you made this just in time, I copped one and it's coming my way, probably at my place on monday or tuesday, great watch and great review TGV!

Possibly the best watch video I’ve ever seen

Great video. I've been thinking more and more about getting this timepiece.

One small point, the Special Boat Service is not the SAS, they're all part of the British Special Forces but they're different branches. The SBS is closer related to the Royal Marines, as the SAS is closer related to the Paratroopers. I only pick this up in case some think the SBS is like the B team to the SAS.

TGV, this was your best review video by far. Especially with the historical background!

The push-extension is still not included with the watch, but it‘s the most bought ‘mod‘ according to my Omega boutique

The most beautiful watch ever designed in my opinion...I have a Sub too, but there's just something about the SMP that makes me want to look down at it all day long lol

Happy to have this as my first lux watch :)

Jeez, he went all out with that intro. Love it!

Extremely high quality content, thank you mate

There is no other place in the world where you learn so much about a piece in the time of a video. Thanks for you research TGV...even if I don't like the 300m so much I've been really.....really enthusiast for the whole video. Keep on going like this Un abbraccio amico mio Francesco

Really well done TGV. One of the most beautiful timepieces made . A fully functional diving sports watch with all the class and wearability of a dress watch.

I started watching this with the Goldeneye N64 pause music in the background once you brought up James Bond and Pierce Brosnan. Best thing ever. Thank you so much for this. This is still my dream watch for nostalgic purposes.

Just bought one .... im over the moon 🥰

I've been torn between getting A Seamaster or a Submariner for so long. This makes it even harder to decide!

Hello from old Blighty, TGV. Can’t tell you how much I enjoy the channel. This model was my first luxury watch. I’ve owned numerous Omegas since, not to mention a Breitling, IWC, Hamilton and Baume Mercier. And yet, I’ve just bought this model, again, in the stunning blue. It’s like that girl you know you really love, deep down. Sure, you’ll flirt with others, you may even have the odd fling, but you’ll always come home to her. Keep up the splendid work! Gareth.

Its ridiculous that you haven't hit 1 millions subscribers yet -- your intros alone are better than anything else on KZfaq. Great video and perfect timing with the Olympics just starting up!

Possibly the best TGV review to date. The outstanding history of this watch was a superb touch.

BEST INTRO BY FAR!

It was the Brosnan Seamaster that got me interested in watches! I used to watch Bond with my dad as a kid...Then there was GoldenEye on N64. A 10-year old couldn't help but notice that Omega. Thanks for the memory lane trip, TGV.

Excellent information, Gentry. I appreciate my Omega even more. I fell in love with the James Bond watch also. Could only afford the quartz version. 😊

Wow nice review you really dig deep on it's history. All i can remember when i was a teen is it was used by pierce brosnan in 1995's james bond. I didn't thought it was used by british special forces in real life. Thumbs up!

Great Vid TGV. Love my electric blue Seamaster 300m pre Daniels escapement,

Out of all of your excellent reviews, this is simply the best. Well Done TGV.

Wow just earlier today, I decided that a Seamaster 300 would be my first luxury watch. Well played TGV, well played. Thank you, Jeremy

Received my Seamaster the other day - the same model used in Brosnan's last 3 films. Absolutely love it! Fantastic bracelet and incredibly crisp movement. Only occured to me yesterday that it was first used in Tomorrow Never Dies - the first Bond film I ever saw. Now whenever I look at the watch I have fond memories of watching the VHS on a tiny TV with my older brother! Btw, love your videos :D

What can I say..... you blew me away.....God bless you 👍🏼

Awesome intro, great review and perfect diver watch! LOVE the Seamaster 300M, just bought one for myself. I think it's the WAY better bang for buck than the Rolex Submariner (which I own, too). Yes, the Sub maybe the better watch as an investment but if you're looking for basically the same performance for half the price, go for the Omega.

One of your best videos thus far! The reviews are so rich and well scripted. Well done TGV!

I absolutely love my seamaster with the wave dial in black, a true classic

It's so much fun being on the road of learning with you Sir. Thank you for another lesson with many interesting details. 👍

have this on a nato strap, in black, and its my go to everyday. will NEVER get rid of it.. EVER...

Best opening sequence ever. Just love it.

Awww thank you! My favourite KZfaq channel reviews my favourite watch. How cool! I‘ll definitely buy this watch, if I saved enough money. So thanks again, outstanding video!

I've got a ceramic seamaster professional and I love it.

Well, I know what I'm saving up for next. Marvelous video- you really showcased the beauty of the finishing. Omega hit a homerun with this reference. Cheers!

One of the best in-depth episodes yet. Excellent work!

Very thorough review once again, and wonderful timing for me! I just finished my James Bond marathon last week, watching all 25 over the last couple months. It has been fun to pay attention to the evolution of watches worn over 50 years. I would love to add a Seamaster to my collection for sure! Dylan

TGV you are the best, i really learn and enjoy your Show

What an intro... looove it

According to SBS Duncan Falconer the first watch they used was rolex submariner as he handed his back when he first left the SAS would have no need for a diving watch as SBS handled all maritime missions

I have the new model and it fits perfect. Really like the co axial 8800 and anti magnetic up to 15000 gauss meaning I don’t have to worry about magnetisms of everyday which stop my other watches.

That's why I love this channel. I never noticed that the watch was in N64's Goldeneye. Always learn something from the Gentry Community. As always, Thanks again for the content.

Awesome review and thanks for taking the time to explain or re-explain the amazing history and pedigree of the seamaster.

Could watch this again and again. I love this watch. Wrist watch check...yup it’s still on!!

Omega should buy this intro! I was a Bond fanatic when this came out and my wife surprised me with the 2531 for our wedding.

i also prefer the older seamaster. the red on the second hand really makes it.

You are by far my favorite KZfaqr I love watching and learning about watches with you thank you so much Matt

I love this review. The Omega Seamaster is one of my grail watches. I cannot afford it yet, but it is the end game, that or the Rolex Submariner. Great work, sir!

Great review and yes, the slenderness of this watch as well as its scalloped bezel always looked attractive to me for years. I think it’s has a subtle and discreet elegance and I like that. I bought other watches until I opened Omega’s newsletter and saw the NTTD then I knew I had to have it…

Top Marks... TGV 0014. Well-researched, educational, love the historical references... and yes... growing up watching James Bond... AND Jacques Cousteau... how could I not pay you another well-deserved compliment.

Nice to hear that the distinguished TGV rates the Seamaster as the prime Bond Watch. A Bond intro always makes my day. The Seamaster 300m is a requirement for a Man's watch collection. Scored one last year for $2900 cash from a LA Chinatown AD. The big NY Grey blowing it out under $3k. Cordiali Saluti, JP

You give a marvelous history of the Omega, with special emphasis given the Seamaster. The Seamaster 300m Professional is a very nice watch. A beautiful watch. A gorgeous watch! "It delivers!"

I’m watching and enjoying your videos for quite some time now, and I have to give it to you: your videos are getting on a very high level. This video almost make me regret the decision I made last year. I bought the Tudor Pelagos instead of the seamaster because I fell in love with that special kind of blue on the Tudor. When I look at my wrist and see the beautiful Tudor I still love it as much as the day I bought it, but I can definitely understand why one would prefer the seamaster over the Pelagos. Maybe if I watch this again I’m 100% convinced to go Seamaster 300 next year. Thanks for the great videos and keep up the good work!

First 19 minutes was a masterpiece history lesson. Superb job TGV!

Hi Tristano! What can I say? Amazing video and the attention to detail. Excellent review of an icon👍🏻. BTW I have the Blue dial one. Keep up the great work and as always looking forward to your next review😉 Cheers from INDIA 🇮🇳 Tc, Hisham.

The name Gentry....Urban Gentry

I have this in blue, it took a few weeks to make that decision but I felt the blue is more 'classic' for the Seamaster. Blue = Ocean, Black = Space (Speedy)! Great to see the movement at last without having to take the caseback off.

Great review good sir! Wasn't really considering it much, but now definitely in play for my next watch. Thanks man!

Simply an amazing video, the sort of quality where I could easily imagine non-watch people becoming utterly fascinated. And thanks for reminding me to hunt down a 2222.80 after I finish university! This will be my first luxury watch, I've decided.

I do adore Omega watches.this one is a stunner.one of my holy trilogy.

I get tingles down my spine with that james bond scene

You really have a great talent for those intros. They get better and better. Also appreciate the history lesson for the Omega watches. Wonderful job, appreciate all your hard work.
