Thanks all, still waiting on my custom brown leather nato to come in, I have a feeling I'm really going to like the look on that as well

Well done! The Seamaster 300 is a stunning watch. And even more stunning in the Sedna gold! That OEM alligator.....well, I don't think it gets any better than that.

Congratulations!

Cheers,
Carl

I really liked the watch on the tan strap but it looks just as good and more dressy on the black alligator strap, plus it matches your sweet girl. I think it works equally well on both straps but, to be honest, I'm not a fan of it on the NATO strap.

I can understand not being a huge fan of the nato, however it is the most comfortable by far funny enough, and will probably be my choice going forward once the weather gets warmer, don't want to be sweating into my alligator and staining it.

Would love a rubber strap but finding a 21mm that fits my omega deployment under $300 is a pain in the ass. Might go with a 22mm hirsch and just go without the deployment which is a shame.

Just got a 21mm Dark Side of the Moon strap for the Seamaster! I was very worried when I first got it, the lug end of the strap is folded over and very thick, almost didn't fit against the case. It is pretty rigid when fitted and can't pull down very far, if I had any smaller wrists, I'd be screwed. Thankfully, it fits my wrist right on the money. Feels and looks great, very happy with it so far. If I had to pick only one strap to go with the watch it would probably be the alligator, but for casual wear and for use during the summer I'm very happy to be using this one here.

Congratulations Jeremy! I love this watch. Seems to be selling at a great price too! I'd much rather pick up one of these than a Steel Submariner at todays prices... Might just have to do that...

Wear it in best of health!

I looked at this watch at the OB today, and compared it with the Sedna Gold Aqua Terra, while I prefer this aesthetic I can't help and think about the nice 3-D Dial of the Aqua Terra, while this one is pretty flat without any applied indices or Omega Logo. Do you miss depth to the dial in every day wear?

I like the Sedna Gold Aqua Terra for sure, but I also love mine. It's not exactly flat since the lume is sunk into the dial a bit, but I see what you mean. I think it looks a bit cleaner than the Aqua Terra personally, I also really like the broad arrow hand. However, I am thinking of selling this seamaster as I am getting a Hulk soon, and two dive watches might be too much. Thinking of selling the seamaster, and getting a sedna speedmaster of some sort.

Jedy thanks for your response. The Aqua Terra seems a lot shiner to me, the Seamaster a little more "subdued" if one could say so.

I personally don't like the Sedna Speedmasters as much, its between the AT and this one if I decide to go Sedna Omega.

PM me if you are interested in mine. I am planning on selling it. Tons of extras and just serviced by Omega, running +1 second a day.
