INCOMING and it’s here! New Seamaster Professional Diver 300m 210.30.42.20.06.001

This beauty arrived today and I love it so far! It is time to see if I am a bracelet guy or a strap guy. So far I really like the look of the bracelet and the added weight isn’t bothering me a bit. The PVD gray dial on this model is terrific. Really really glad I went with the gray. Any fear of illegibility in certain lighting conditions are gone. The blue hands are easy to see and change color a bit depending on the light. Sometimes they are a navy blue and other times they are more of a royal blue. The bezel feels great and lines up perfectly with each click. The dial looks excellent and I really like the date wheel at 6 o’clock. The blue color of the numerals matches the hands and other font perfectly and the gray background color matches the dial perfectly as well.

I couldn’t be happier. This watch sits very well on my 6.75” wrist. It doesn’t look too big or too small and it is not thick at all, in my opinion, but I also don’t have a thin dress watch to compare it to. The clasp and quick adjust is great and I am already also enjoying viewing the movement through the case back.

Only thing left to do is get it properly sized! It’s slightly loose at the moment, and I will get that fixed up as soon as possible.

Thanks so much to Millenary Watches who contacted me to let me know they had this in stock. They were excellent to deal with, very communicative, answered all of my questions, shipped quickly, and packaged everything very nicely! Thanks again!!

























Set to the proper time and date

Thank you! I am really liking the gray dial. Definitely glad I decided to go with this one. It seems to be the one that gets looked over a bit, but I think it is pretty unique and looks awesome!

Congratulations! Those are great! At some point you’ll have to throw it on some blue rubber.

We will see. I’m currently enjoying it on the bracelet and am surprised it does not feel as heavy as I thought it would. It wears very light and low to the wrist, in my opinion.

Nice watch! The picture with the cigar is an optical illusion. To me it looks like it is standing straight up on the box.

Thank you! Ok I’ve gotta go take a look at that pic again.

Edit: ok I can kind of see what you mean. It was most definitely laying flat on the box though!
