@@scottslappey6802 you can get AR scratches on the watch face, but in my experience you really need to give the face a good shot for it to show a mark. Even then you will only see the scratch in certain light, it hasn't been obvious nor will it hinder you from reading the watch. Overall I'm a big Seamaster fan and happy with my collection.

My two favourite Omega Seamaster diver 300m. 1/ Black and Sedna Gold Diver 300m in black rubber strap. 2/ Green with green rubber strap. Omega Seamaster Diver 300m are great diver watches, great ceramic dial……but do sift through the right variation case and strap for you. Personally I think Omega make some great Diver watches, but not great watch bracelets. Go an Omega diver in the right colour combination with the rubber strap….

Great video! I’ve got the previous gen in black on oem rubber and it’s just amazing. The new version never grabbed me on the bracelet but then I tried on the blue dial variant on rubber and can’t stop thinking about it. On rubber the heft and size of the case is reduced so much. I’d love to see the Tokyo edition on rubber too, that looks sexy!

One thing people underestimate is that the “grey dial” is actually the most dynamic of all the seamaster dials in different lighting situations and also has a sunburst effect. White and gray dials my two favorites.

Great review. I absolutely agree that rubber is the most comfortable and versatile out of the bands. And also, the black diver at 5:40 is by far the best one out of the 3. It's the most classic and versatile, you can wear it with any outfit and it'll still make it's presence known without being too obnoxious. It's just the perfect man's watch.

Pulled the trigger last week on the Black dial version. Compared the watches with black, white, blue, grey, and green dials in the store. I have a white dial watch and didn’t want another. The grey and green dials didn’t sway me. However, the blue dial is pretty awesome. It is a very strong color and to me isn’t clear how stunning the dial is until you see it in person. I decided to go with the black dial because it is not as noticeable as the blue.

Not really a way to go wrong here IMO. This is just a lovely and versatile watch- I have black on bracelet and it just works with any outfit in any situation- and the sliding micro adjustment keeps it comfortable throughout the day. Also have the nato strap (knock off- couldn’t drop $170 on a strap) if I want to dress it down on occasion. My second pick would have been white- but there’s no way you can go wrong with any of the colors

I went in wanting to buy the black dial and came out with the white dial. To me, it pops more and I enjoyed the contrast a lot more than I originally thought I would. These watches begged to be tried on before bought, it definitely changed my mind. I too prefer the rubber strap, I tried the nato but quickly went back to the rubber do to it's wearability.

Nice roundup thanks! I started with black dial on bracelet. I didn't get on with the bracelet so I sold it and went with the chrome dial on rubber. The blue hands really pop on this one, although the chrome is quite plain looking in the wrong light. This one went too, then I picked up the blue dial on rubber and missed the black so much I bought that one again on rubber. There is no right or wrong choice, the black dial certainly pops against the white hour markers and is my favourite, but I feel the blue is the more versatile for day to day casual wear. I could see myself selling the blue to get the green next.
