Incoming - 300M Prof.

I had a look at my watch purchases over the past few years - starting with the vintage Seamaster and then progressing to the 300M - and thought it was interesting they were all exclusively Omega.

I’ve enjoyed entertaining the idea of purchasing other brands and models, but for some reason the design language of Omega just speaks to me. Happy to share with you all and grateful we’re here to enjoy these watches.

Those are great pieces. I’ve got the 1861 and my next target is a 43.5 PO.

That's a great collection! Something for every occasion, and I like that you've got a vintage piece in the mix. Omega's an incredible brand, for sure. Enjoy all in good health.

Very nice! I'm looking at that exact aqua terra at the moment. Is that the 41mm version?

It’s the 38mm and my wrist is about 7 inches. I admit that although I think the proportions of the 38mm are spot on, it is harder to read (especially in low light) and if I did it again, I might had bought the larger model.

Good to know. My wrist is exactly 7 inches as well. I recently tried both on and while I think I could make the 38mm work, I found myself leaning towards the 41.
