    I bought one new in 2005 with a blue dial and got the new 2022 black dial on bracelet last month. I love the watch and the dial is unreal in sunlight. When you get the black dial straight on you gloss black with waves, from a slight angle it looks great and at more extend angles looks like a silver mirror. The bracelet is incredibly comfy with a huge adjust on the fly range. It's the perfect daily wear watch.

    I just got myself one in black, on a steel bracelet that is really nice to wear. I particularly like the way it feels quite heavy when I pick it up, and when it’s on my wrist it feels well balanced. The way the light reflects off the black on the dial is so nice too!

    I appreciate your conclusion thesis. It kills me everyday that I’m gonna get an Omega in October during my vacation to Hawaii. I want to experience my first Omega watch there. But I’m always looking at the chrome/blue versus the white dial both with the rubber strap. Thanks for such a spiritual video🙏🏽

    I feel like my new 2022 omega seamaster bezel a bit like loose...the bezel is slightly like "play" (not tight like rolex/breitling). Plus when i gentle press the bezel for example at 1'o clock, the opposite bezel at 8'o clock there is tiny lifting ... I ask omega boutique they say its normal...just wondering any of other owners feel the same? Is it normal? Thx guys

    I've had this exact model for a month now, and have zero regrets. I read numerous articles, and watched who knows how many videos featuring this watch. The funny thing is, the actual time is the last thing I notice when I look at it. It's easy to get lost in the details, and forget you were checking the time. As you would expect, the fit and finish is excellent. It's stunning in person, and the rubber band is very comfortable after a few days.
    Also, with 6.6in wrists, it wasn't clear to me if it would look too large. After wearing it for this length of time, it looks good to me. Would I think the same if I had 6in wrists? Probably not. As a side note, I don't get why people have an issue with the HE valve. To me, it's part of the character of the watch, and doesn't diminish the value. Overall, pretty happy with this purchase.

      I have mine on the rubber strap. The dealer offered the option of the bracelet, but it doesn't appeal to me as much. On the rubber, it has a sporty look to it. I wear it mostly with casual clothes, and it works for me. If you want something that has a more formal aesthetic, I'd go with the bracelet. For my purposes, a 14060 reference Submariner is the less casual go to.@@marekmusil3179

    So when my oldest boy was only three years old, we were watching Goldeneye and he saw Bond's Seamaster 300M. He said, 'that watch is way better than yours daddy, you should get that.' 25 years later, I bought it (albeit the newest version and in the blue of course). Great watch, and great video Harrison. The white is gorgeous.

      I appreciate the point, James. I think you have a mix of inherited money, high-paying jobs, and people (like me) who just like watches and are willing to prioritize them in their budgets. Look at it this way: If you can put away $500 per month, this watch is yours in less than a year. If you can put away $250 per month, less than 2 years. Do that repeatedly and you've got a nice collection. But not everyone has the ability (or willpower/patience) to do that. For some, there just isn't any fat in the budget to set aside.

It began fitting me a bit better as I (unfortunately) gained some weight, however, it was still heavy enough to cause discomfort over time.
