I am a huge Rolex and Breitling fan and never considered an Omega........until I saw this beauty. At the price point, incredible watch that anyone who is a WIS can certainly appreciate and enjoy in their collection. I just got some new found extra cash today that may make this happen sooner, rather than later, but at the right price.

Lol
If it had Rolex written on the dial of the omega it would make it no more desirable than what it already is to me... |

as to which one would I buy if the prices were the same - that is a pointless question cos there never has been a time when a sub and a seamaster cost the same and there never will be - but I sold my sub c and I have a seamaster now so I guess that is my answer as to which is better - probably the sub but the gap is way too small given the price difference

you just have to decide which one you like the most - no bad choices

If it wasn’t for the WatchFinder video I would never know about this watch. I’ve tried it on and was very impressed with it. |

I do not own an Omega but i think at the price point the particular Omega is more value.
Value arguments aside, it is a gorgeous watch to behold and wear. |

It’s been a slow release. Was available at greys 2 months ago, boutiques a month ago and ADs are starting to get them now.
3 months from now they will be in stock everywhere. Don’t believe everything you hear from your AD |

I'll gladly buy one for 3k or so. May take a year but I can wait.

I must have been living under a rock, I had a previous Black Seamaster 300 Ceramic and thought it fabulous, I didn't like the waves on the other earlier dials but think this new watch is an absolute beauty.
I am very tempted by the blue dial.

Just ordered mine Tuesday and the AD got it today. I got the last one... These things are flying off the ADs:
1. You can't find Subs anywhere 2. SMP300 is arguably a better watch - ceramic dial, better movement than an obsolete 3135 3. $4,800 vs $9,000

mine was an unworn watch sourced 14 days ago from a very well known omega AD so if the watch was resold at a profit for £3300 maybe £3000 is doable now? probably as ever having a relationship with an AD is crucial in getting the best deals

also the omega warranty on these is 5 years just as on the sub c so no advantage there
