The Seamaster 300M is so aesthetically pleasing

That bracelet looks 1000 times better than the OEM bond bracelet! I’d buy one if it came like that from omega. Well done.

I am looking to add a blue dialed watch. Generally prefer a SS sports watch.

Been looking at Rolex YM40, DJ36 Blue, Tudor BB58 Blue or Omega SMP 300M Blue.

I'm starting to lean towards the SMP 300M blue. A colleague has one and raves about it. Price wise it is hard to beat. Likely a higher quality watch than the Tudor BB58 blue. And, I personally like the recent changes to bring back the wave dial, shift the date to the 6 o'clock position, and new movement.

My only hesitation is whether it's flexible enough for a variety of occasions?

Thought on flexibility and/or comparisons to any of the watches above?

I want the blue dial version too.

Obviously it’s a great casual/sport watch. I also think it works great with a blue Oxford shirt, khakis, nice pair of dress shoes, and a blue sport coat. That’s what I wear at the office and out to dinner with my wife.

I think my Submariner and my Speedmaster on an alligator leather strap are better for a suit and tie.

I’m not saying you can’t wear it with a suit and tie, but I’d choose to wear my Submariner or Speedmaster instead of the Seamaster. If you put it on a rubber strap, then it’s even less compatible with a suit and tie. My 2 cents…

Thank you for the input! No Rolex Sub here, while I love the symmetry of the Sub ND. So did debate adding Sub ND, as I really like that it can dress up or down. But, I already have black dials covered. Really need blue dial for flexibility into the collection.

For SMP 300M Blue, I wouldn't likely wear it with a suit/tie. It would likely be my summer casual sports watch. As you indicated, ability to wear casually with jeans, or business casual with khakis, blue dress shirt, navy sports coat. Sounds like it could work for both those. I'd choose a different watch for anything more formal (ie. suit/tie).

I think you got it covered. I love that watch and I want one too.
