Excellent video, well structured and clear. Well done ! I have just added an Omega to my watches and that is the Seamaster titanium NTTD as I found it so unique and absolutely irresistible. This is a very discrete watch, very well camouflaged, under the radar, feather light, slim bezel, slimmer profile aside from the beautiful doomed crystal. And of course it has a COSC & METAS certified co-axial movement. The co-axial movement has a direct link to George Daniel who I consider a horological heroe.

The numbers of variations is crazy, I had no idea. Choosing one is not easy but I do love the Aqua Terra. For the Speedy it’s between the First In Space or the 57! I also like the Seamaster 300 Heritage but never saw one IRL. Great one guys 🤘🏻

A more apt comparison for the Planet Ocean would be the Sea Dweller. The Omega answer to the Submariner is really the 300M, not the Planet Ocean. Other than that I loved the video! These brand guides are great

Luckily I have a large wrist and can carry off a large watch comfortably. I have a seamaster ploprof 1200m. It came with the mesh strap but I got the orange rubber strap put on it. It’s big, thick and heavy and a beautiful watch. It’s also quite rare (compared to say the planet ocean variations) and I have never met anyone else wearing one. It attracts plenty of good comments and is a conversation starter.

Very nice summary of the plethora of Omega models, Nathan and team. I guess I always considered the Seamaster Professional (SMP) to be more a direct competitor to the Submariner than the Planet Ocean. SMP has more of the Submariner size and WR. I agree with the Tresor as a beautiful dress watch, but like Cellini with Rolex, most are here for the sports watches, not the dress watches. My favorite Omega is the one on my wrist right now--and almost all the time--the Aqua Terra 38.5 mm blue dial with the 8500 movement--AKA Skyfall (because of its appearance first in the Bond movie of the same name). This iteration of the AT was the only one to have the frame around the date window. The new METAS ATs have a more balanced dial with the date at 6 o'clock and color-matched date wheel, although I am not sure about the conical crown. Cheers!

This link helped me a lot to learn more about the personality of each of the Omega models. There are many miths and legends of which of these models is finer or better than other. Is it true Omega has better movements or finer watches according to the models? Is there a way to rank which model is better from 1 to 4? Is there any other video that explains this? Again guys, excellent video, images and explanation!

Fantastic video....very educative and unbiased....Omega as a brand offers you all sorts of watches and movements...and none of them seem dated....I have just bought a seamaster 300 dive watch(Silver dial with blue bazel on a rubber strap) and not only is it super comfortable but also addictive to look at and wear.....also fairly reasonably priced when compared to a Rolex.....one thing that I do want to counter here is that it was with the seamaster 300 dive that they(Omega) wished to counter the submariner with...not the Seamaster 600....with that they wanted to counter the rolex sea dweller
