My decision has changed I think ?

I was all set to try and locate this Omega PO Titanium but then I came across the white dialed one ...... hard choices, so what do you guys think

The Titanium looks dull (compare to white dial) except for the orange mix. So I would go for white.

The white dial has more appeal in the photo comparison. But those are just photos. You need to try each one on your wrist and make the decision based on what you like.

Tried on the titanium today, I was close to not giving it back.

I really like this watch and especially the amazing fit!!! Curved case and strap, so darn nice!

Super light weight and between the two, definitely would be my choice.


If the watch didn’t have a date window, I would have walked out with it. Just don’t like dates unless essential.

No wrong choice as they are both nice, I own the White which I believe edges it in versatility and overall looks.

I think that the white dial Seamaster would be the one for daily wear. Great looking.

Both are awesome watches. You should try them on though. If you do, my bet is you’ll go titanium. They’re so light, they’re super comfortable despite the size.

I just bought the white 300M with black rubber strap so of course I’m biased towards that one (pic in Seamaster 300M thread). I didn’t even try the bracelet as I wanted a sportier look and loved the black rubber strap with the black bezel. Definitely a striking look.

Like several have said you need to try them on; certainly there’s a good size/thickness difference and you may find one speaks to you more than the other.

Thanks for all the suggestions Gents, I am going to try to go to the local Boutique here in Houston and see if they have both to try on.

For me the white dial. Too much orange on the other.

White dial SM. The size and look are just spot on.

Both are GORGEOUS. The PO in Ti with a rubber bracelet is more of a tool watch. It really depends on what you're going after. Can't go wrong with either one.

The gray dial is def more toolish, in a very cool way. Plus I love the modern Omega hands.

The white dial pops and is my preference, but I never liked Omega's hollow sword hands.

Tough call.

Tough choice. I like the wave dial on the white but prefer the hands on the titanium.
I’d go with the white dial by a whisker. You win either way.
