Has Omega Perfected The Seamaster 300m In 2018? - A Review & Comparison Of 007's Next Watch
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 3 окт 2024
- The Omega Seamaster 300m luxury dive watch holds a very special place in my heart as it takes me right back to my early days of discovering Swiss luxury watches.
Forever inextricably linked to the James Bond franchise since 1995's "GoldenEye" movie and with countless variations over the decades, how time has flown since its debut in 1993!
Today I take a look at one of the most exciting 2018 releases (Ref. 210.30.42.20.06.001) for its 25th anniversary and compare it to the previous version from 2017 (Ref. 212.30.41.20.01.003).
What has changed? What has been added or taken away? Will this be the next watch for agent 007? Lastly, I ask perhaps the most important question: with the rise and success of the Tudor Black Bay taking the crown of the best Swiss luxury Diver under $5000, can Omega step up its game and retake the title? Join me to find out!

TGV, even 3 years later you still have *the best* video on RUclips of the 2018 Seamaster 300m. Your video also really hits home how underappreciated the chrome dial variant of this watch truly is.
The updated Seamaster was designed to go toe to toe with the Sub, and it does. In my opinion, they didn't come out with this model to compete with the older/outdated versions. For the money, show me a better bargain.
Spot on in 2019. But with current pricing, it just isn't worth it.
@janjacdr1 still worth
it rolex it's twice the price and pound for pound omega it's the better watch for sure ... cheers mate
People here seem to dislike the new version. I freaking love it. The new movement is a huge step forward. The wave dial is interesting and gives the watch a distinct look. When the previous version came out I was really bummed it was just a plain glossy dial. I even like the display case back. To each his own I guess. Maybe responses would be different if it were the black or blue version.
Thr new blue is more stunning than the older models..Older models are ugly and plain...
It’s just a bunch of haters that have the older one and what they have is always the best.
I have this new one with the blue rubber as well as the late 90’s wave model, I much prefer the new one.
I hope all the people don't like the new model, so i can get the used one in a very cheap... Love the new one
Manny Calavera same here, I am really into the black rose gold two tune model
I've bought this new Seamaster because it looks fresh and modern. I also love the grey dial and the blue bezel. With the new movement this is the watch you want🙂👍
Going by the comments I'm in the minority, I love it 😍 Way cooler than the bland Tudor or the done-to-death Sub. Cheers TGV 👍👍
Well said mate 👍🏻👍🏻
The new Seamaster is one of the most beautiful watches I've ever seen.
An elegant, expensive show piece.
I am more of a speedmaster pro guy than a seamaster pro but this watch is exquisite. I love the thought that a speedy pro is kept constant by omega while a seamaster pro is constantly updated with the latest tech that omega has. I am really considering purchasing the exact watch that you reviewed but with the rubber strap. Thank you for your thorough review. Cheers!
Wearing the silver and blue one now for the last month. Got it. Love it. And I’m a commercial diver turned aerospace engineer. Love the he valve too. Wear it with both jeans and suits. Awesome.
I just picked up the 2018 model with the blue face and dial. After seeing the grey face I wasn't totally sold on it, I'm a bit of a purest when it comes to those kind of things. I absolutely LOVE this watch and I haven't taken it off since I walked out of the boutique with it on my wrist a little over 3 weeks ago. Great review as usual, keep up the good work.
Well I guess I won’t be going to sleep for another 26mins thanks TGV!
I just purchased the older one. In my opinion it looks more versatile and dial is less busy! Loved your review!
Loved that intro TGV! I have to say that despite the new model bringing everything that Omega currently has to offer to the table, I'd take the old one any day. There's a certain delicate look to the older one that is lost in the new one with it's larger case and more brutish lines.
Dear TGV,
I am happy to report that I purchased my vintage sea aster and it should be here in a couple weeks, loved the video and I am a huge 007 fan so I'm really happy about the topic. Thanks again and happy thanksgiving
Conner
FANTASTIC!!!!!
Nothing like getting a Semaster. I am happy for you my friend.
Please do tell me which one you one for.
Thank you Conner,
Best regards,
TGV
I am with you, TGV. I prefer the 2017 models for both their size and back of case etching. I always learn from and enjoy your videos.
Savvy Life Strategies - 2012 to 2017 are the best years of the Seamaster 300m. Deep Black or Deep Blue Dial with the perfect Ceramic Bezel and very light numbering. Loved how the Seamaster evolved from the original. To me personally 2018 version is not the same anymore. Yes they brought back the wave dial and new movement etc. But look at the price jump now, the old version was the best bang for your buck luxury watch. Now it’s climbed up in price and very close to the Speedy.
@@Soorma1988 it's already 20% off grey market at $3800 for a brand new 2018 SMP
Huh?
It’s about $2500 for the old model in amazing condition now. And the new one is WELL above that
A watch with a fine movement and a closed case back is like a Ferrari with a hood that only a certified mechanic can unlock and open.
I loved that intro, definitely up there with some of your best. My favourite intro of yours is still the Mad Men one for the Timex Marlin
Thank you so much Owen, so happy to hear you love that one. I was one of my faves to shoot and edit too.
Best regards,
TGV
Thanks for yet another great review TGV. I purchased the 2017 SMPc last year before finding out that it was getting updated... Have to admit I was a touch nervous about having bought the previous model once I discovered the update. Would have loved the newer in house movement in my SMPc (think that's why the case got bigger, to accommodate the greater size of the 8800), but after seeing the 2018 model breakdown in your video, I believe that the 2012-2017 model is a much classier watch. Keep up the good work Guvnor!
It is definitely a classier watch, whereas the new one is sportier.
It was like being back in 1995 again when Golden Eye was released! Great review and much enjoyed TGV.
I love the blue 2017 glossy solid dial, not keen on this dial and Kudos for that superb intro.
That intro was top banana haha!! Bravo TGV, keep up the good work!!
Thank you Jon :D
Very kind sir!
Best regards,
TGV
I have the blue 2017 of the Seamaster and I bought it after seeing the new 2018 version and am happy with my decision! I have the same size wrist as TGV and don't like how the removed the seahorse from the caseback, the huge He valve, the increase in diameter and the printed logo...but for half the price of a Submariner I'm in!
Enjoy it my friend!
Thank you fore sharing that.
Best regards,
TGV
To me the concern is not only the slight increase in size of the dial, but a 3mm increase lug to lug. Now 50mm. Will look odd on smaller wrists.
@@michaelriera6277 I tried on the new one and it's right at the tip of my wrist, so it's literally right on the borderline of being too big. I still prefer my SMPc
@@michaelriera6277 Interestingly the bracelet changed to female end links, so it pretty much cancels out the LTL difference.
@@Tennisfiles Don’t you mean flat end links? 😉
Always appreciate your insight, TGV! I've got a blue dial 2018 model on order, and cant wait to get it! I love display casebacks, so losing the engraving is no big deal for me, and I have 7 and a quarter inch wrist, so the size is fine for me as well. With the improved movement, the new version is just perfect for me. I only wish they had an applied logo! I believe you said there was a reason for not having it in the video, but I don't think you explicitly said what it was. Maybe to match the blued hands? But then why not have it on the other models with stainless hands? Consistency I suppose. Oh well!
9:26 to be honest, I like this (2012 - 2017) much more. With the non-waved dial. The waves make it too busy for my taste.
My 2531.80 was the most comfortable watch I’ve ever owned. That bracelet is just amazing. I miss it but my brother is loving it. The old wave dial is beautiful. The SMP is such a fantastic watch. Loved this video. Thx again.
After much, much consideration I recently got this in black with steel for my upcoming 40th. I've contemplated just about every so called luxury watch in the €3000 to €5000-ish range. But in the end I fell in love with the Seamaster. I found one slightly used online for a bargained price, and the seller actually knocked off a few hundred euros because he liked me as a buyer.
Totally worth every cent!
That silver dial with the blued hands/indices is beautiful! The size makes the old model look a bit more classy and slender.
Excellent comparison TGV, I'm sure the new Seamaster 300 is a terrific watch but in my opinion the new wave dial looks immature when viewed next to the previous model. I love my 2017 in blue.
Thank you John, enjoy your 2017 in blue, boy oh boy do I miss mine!
Best regards,
TGV
The Urban Gentry with your orange rubber strap 😍
I mean everyone chose this colour scheme because it was different, but if he was comparing the black with black, the new one may not have seemed less elegant?
"immature"...
perfect.
Firstly, I'm really thankful to your channel TGV, you've really opened my eyes up on luxury watches. After hours and hours of contemplation and comparisons, I finally bought the 2017 Omega Seamaster Diver 300m as my first luxury watch ! I was seriously comparing the exact two models you were comparing and ultimately (while I really liked the display back) decided on the earlier model. It just felt right on my wrist and I preferred its design a lot more. Anyways, keep posting TGV and I'll keep learning!
I fully agree, as I happen to be wearing my Seamaster, which I purchased 14 years ago. Love the size, blue color and the nostalgic feeling.
Amazing video and I love this watch! Went out and bought the new 2018 42mm blue wave after seeing this!
I would have never imagined you would review my daily wear! I love this watch, I hate the escapement valve though, when I purchased it I asked for one without it, I was told no. This watch just brings joy to my life every single day because I purchased it for me. I never knew that the face was lazer etched or the gauss stuff, I just really loved how it looked! I wish your Hugo was in this video, I really love him! Hugo is my favorite dinosaur ever!
Decided to go with the iconic blue face/ blue bezel 2018 300M Sea Master, all steel. Just something how the color really "pops" in the light, especially with the anti reflective coating. Had a Speed Master for several years.
This will be my first Sea Master, and automatic Omega.
The size is a considerable improvement for me. 8" wrist, and the older variants were a touch small.
Great reviews, thank you.
By the way, it is a 9 link. The two small polished pieces are separate.
This is the perfect watch for me. I will be purchasing one in 2019 and upgrading from my Tissot Seastar 2018.
Got the new blue one, just love it
There are so many things I like about this watch, I can’t wait to see it in person. I even like the black one, a little more under the radar. 👍🏻👍🏻
I was taken a back, at first. I was not as a huge fan of the 90's models, even though we share much of the Bond influence (games, movies, etc). I preferred the earlier seamasters, like the new "Spectre" edition & it's brothers. I do admit, you're right it does grow on you. After listing how much work went into it, it sure looks like someone would enjoy that.
I thought I was over the seamaster...but watching this gives me a hankering for the 90’s seamaster again.
Very nice comparison! Thank you!! I just love the new one! It has taken the 300 one step further... like Omega always does, and does so well! Yes it is a tiny bit bigger. but it has to be to fit the co-axial 8800. again the evolution of this fantastic time peace!
Keep up the good work! :)
Although the modern Seamasters are not my taste, i am very impressed with the technical improvements. Great review, TGV! It could not be more detailed.
Thank you Sebastian, that makes you a true watch enthusiast! Also a gentleman, because you see the positive in something, even in something you do not necessarily like.
Best regards,
TGV
I visited Moyer Fine Jewlery today to try on the seamaster and I can tell you their customer service is impeccable and variety expansive. Bill talked and showed watches with me for a good half hour. Looking forward to purchasing from him in the future. If you're anywhere near Indianapolis it would be worth the trip.
may I also add that the previous SMP300c gloss dial has its bezel markers coated with chromium nitride (a metal coat that is impervious to corrosion) whereas the new 2018 ceramic bezel is just coated with lacquer paint.
Before I see this , I’m so happy you review this I was looking for videos on this watch and what other than my favorite TGV to make it!
I've been waiting all summer for this review. I bought the 2017 Seamaster for my 30th birthday in january this year and when they released the new one at basel i thought that i maybe made a mistake but after seeing it in person and your and a few other reviews i came to the conclusion to stick to my SMPc1. I like single parts on the new one like the more masculine bracelet and the push type clasp(which i upgraded later on on mine for reasonable money), the metas movement is outstanding but my 2500D is running very well at 3-5sec/24h and there are more things i like better on the old case style. I actually like the small crown better because the crownguards build such a beautiful curvature around the crown and the caseback is just as beautiful. I got a good discount at my local AD which met my expectations and i just have to say with the new higher price i may have had looked on a explorer or something else, for me and i am sure for many other the current Seamaster is a great luxury entry because of the price and the features, this may change in the future a bit because to ad another 1-2000€ can be the showstopper for potential customers.
I prefer the new one overall, and the most important change is the place of the date
God I LOVE the lower centered date! More companies need to do that!
Thumbs up and a solid like just for the intro! Another excellent video sir! I have mixed feelings about the new Seamaster and find myself drawn more to the Ref. 212.30.41.20.01.003 or even going back to the Ref. 2220.80.00. But as you've said before, one doesn't really know until seeing it and experiencing it in person. Also, I can certainly appreciate Omega's efforts to produce new styles and keep the product line as fresh as possible. Thanks for all of your hard work Governor, it is greatly appreciated.
Ok honestly, the amount of time you put into these videos really does come through in the video quality. Much appreciated, always a great video man.
Great review TGV, I have to agree with you the 2017 Omega has that look to it. The 2018 model is nice but just doesn't have that.😊👍🇮🇹
Super informative video, thank you so much for providing such marvellous information in your typical classy style. The new caliber is a wonderful bit of engineering too
This specific watch is the one I've been looking at for when I finish this Business degree. Amazing review T!
Great video, I have the 2017 black model. Great watch to wear in any setting. The new offerings look more gimmick like in my opinion. I wouldn’t trade mine in for the new version. There is also a price difference with the 2018 model being more expensive!
To the guys quick to judge Don't judge till you see in person, I did but when I visited AD I was blown away by the Grey dial, it's superb, I had all 3 in front me blue,black and grey and the grey 100percent got the nod, the way it catches the light with the blued hands and indices and the lovely silvery textured dial. You can't see these details in vids and pics the way you can if it's in your hand. I suspect the grey one will be the one to watch for collectability, and if you look closely in latest Omega ad bond is wearing the grey...
I love the move to open case back, but I would like to see more of the movement. Love that they kept the bracelet. I'm waiting for a mid-size.
I can see TGV in a Bond movie with Hugo as his side kick LOL
I purchased a old style 300 this year found a mint condition 2007 full size absolutely love it , still looks great really nice quality watch
The new ones look nice especially the range of colours, the dial on the on the blue looks fantastic
WOW! What a stunning piece! They really made some phenomenal upgrades to the old model. I really think this new one blows it out of the water! I disliked the new dial until I saw it up close in your video, and it is actually quite stunning and beautiful. I also love the display back, but I'm a display back or bust kinda guy. I also went from strongly disliking the SMP bond bracelet, to absolutely loving the new bracelet! I love that they flattened out the links a bit. The only the I don't like is the new HE valve. I definitely think we will be seeing it make an appearance on Daniel Craig in the upcoming Bond film 25.
Good job TGV. Review, narration, and production. Between the two I would say 2017 over 2018. Unsure about the wave dial. I would rather have a vintage piece IMO. Several to choose from as you well know. What is nice though, we have a choice? Maybe as an older gentry member, I prefer the longevity of the brand and sometimes wish they would go back to their history and strong basics. Though the new pieces are very reliable and innovative. Onward and upward my good friend. Well done as usual. Until the next time, all the best Sir.
I must say, I was unsure too, that was of course until I got it in the flesh.
Then again, you might absolutely loathe it once on the wrist, so funny how it goes.
Anyways, I am with you my friend, I prefer vintage too, my Omega is from 1943! LOL, can't get more vintage than that, I might have to bring back pocket watches next! LOL ;-)
Thank you my friend, onwards and ever upwards.
Best regards,
TGV
@@theurbangentry Pocket watches are magnificent. Please do Sir. What history and dedication and so aesthetically pleasing. A marvelous idea indeed. 👍
The Urban Gentry ... agreed. I tried these on at an AD. Very impressive in person.
Better than a Rolex now. Shame the value doesn’t hold the same. Great video!
Technically better than a rolex submariner...The sub is more iconic though...
Finally i'm back in England. I don't think Omega could sway me with 300m updates, I'm just simply in love with the 2000s James Bond version, it's currently my favourite watch. Great review as always and another awesome intro to add to the collection. If you could pick from any of the past seamsters, from the quartz goldeneye to this current model, which one would you choose?
My personal favorite is the 2264.50. The classic sword hand Seamaster.
I think I still prefer the previous versions. It misses the craftsmanship feeling on the dial.... great video!
After seeing only online photos, I was leaning towards the 2017 based on all the Gentry's criticisms of the case size, the dial, and the helium escape valve on the 2018. But then I saw both of them side-by-side at the AD. And for me, at least, the 2018 was the clear winner. The case size was small enough for my 7" wrist, the laser-cut waves were understated, and the helium escape valve was proportional to the crown. I did like the 2017, but for a $4400 watch, it just wasn't that visually interesting. I was afraid I'd get bored with it. So I bought the 2018 with the black dial and bracelet. I suggest the Gentry, even the ones not in the market for a Seamaster, check out the 2017 and 2018 at an AD while you still can. You might (or might not!) be surprised which one you prefer. And, of course, that's part of the fun of watches!
So glad you managed to get both the current and the new model in side by side, looking forward to this one!
Cheers, Oli
Thank you Oli,
I must thank the wonderful Derek at Moyer for that!
Best regards,
TGV
TGV you make so many high quality videos! This one is really up there in the classifica, great job. They certainly perfected the Seamaster 300 in 2018 for reasons you explained well, but they have not won over peoples taste.......YET? I own the original BOND Quartz since 2001, it has a charm and utility which has made it my all time favorite watch, getting the most wrist time, hands down.
I just opted for the 2017 seamaster I have a thin wrist and didn't want to go any larger. I also wanted the classic Seahorse back. Lastly I wasn't blown away by the wave dial. But I will say you can't go wrong with either one really.
Your latter pint is VERY true indeed.
Thank you Robert, enjoy your SMP!
Best regards,
TGV
To me the concern is not only the slight increase in size of the dial, but a 3mm increase lug to lug. Now 50mm. Will look odd on smaller wrists.
Hi the lug to lug is 48mm, not 50mm.
I just got the black dial and bezel on a bracelet. My first luxury piece and I’m absolutely in love.
Bought a black one today - thank you TGV.
Beautiful watch! The size increase is a bummer but I'm thrilled with my previous version. Such a value in the luxury watch though!
I completely agree! I would definitely go for the 2017 one, in my opinion it just feels how a seamaster should, something seems slightly off with the new one.
Hi Tristano!
Wonderful iconic luxury diver, and equally iconic review in the highest level what I’ve ever experienced on youtube by watch reviewers. I’m just totally amazed about the quality and the impact of your words, the visual elements, the carefullness about all the details possible to tell and show about a horological instrument. I just truly happy and proud in a way that I use to find you here and started to follow you week by week. Wonderful, my friend! I just love it for sure.
Big thank and greetings: Robert :)
I agree with a lot of what you've said here, but I do wish they'd left the applied logo's and original He valve.
I'm not going to lie though I'm totally in love with my 2018, I went black on bracelet, and for me - it's perfect.
I think they've modernized really well it and it's brought it right up to date. I know you can't see much of the movement, but the display back was a big selling point for me, it's just nice to see. I still plan to pick up a late model previous iteration at some point, but it's not needed. For me, the 7 week wait from pre-order, was totally worth it! Good review TGV and totally agree with 99% of what you said. A lot of hate for it in the comments, but it's great in person. Each to their own though.
Awesome review as usual.. balanced and something relatable (Though I like the new one better, largely because of the clasp, I can totally understand why you may still prefer the old one over the new one).
And an apt opening/ introduction ..
Keep it coming!!👍🏻
Great review TGV 👍. I think Omega nailed it with the dail design. I love how watchmakers try out new materials and production methods to stay ahead of the competition. Imho, Omega has succeeded.
Looking forward to the next one,
Regards,
Koen
PS. Omega should offer the displayback or the hippocampus as an option.
Pierce Brosnan, He is one of the perfect almost too perfect James Bond.
I love his James Bond so much.
He certainly had a great swagger, his Bond was very enjoyable indeed.
Thank you sir,
Best regards,
TGV
Sir, You Forgot to mention about hands XD
The hands is slightly changed, Now the hands lume is tapered. Little thing but nicely improved readability.
Great video, Have a great day!
and those BMWs! Specially Z8 for me!
Omega hit it out of the park with the new Seamaster. Absolutely amazing watch from and aesthetic and technical perspective.
It's a beautiful watch. I thought it was a bit too subtle; the blue hands on the gray dial but the more i watched the more i liked it. Although, as a dive watch, wouldn't the blue hands get lost against the gray dial? I've always heard the preferred colors for deep sea divers is some kind of dark color hands on a yellow or orange dial. I, like most of the people here have multiple dive style watches which will never get very wet (unless i spill a martini on them or something). Anyway good vid the macro shots are great. You could really see the depth of the markers.
I can't wait to purchase this watch! That 8800 calibre movement is incredible. Blue on Blue on stainless steel!
Torn between the blue or black dial 2017 model. The new Seamaster just doesn’t do it for me. Nice review TGV, as always.
Love the evolution but the first iteration with the smaller waves on the dial has my heart forever. ...and has been on my wrist since 2007 lol. Something about how the light catches it that the new model just doesn’t do
Very detailed review! Thank you! Personally, I'm completely prefer older model (wich is much better in any aspect, perhaps, except of the movement).
It's interesting the points you made regarding how its aesthetic resonates to you, as I felt exactly the same! And to be specific, how much you crave for that Bond nostalgia to come from that model you're showing - stainless steel with a blue ceramic bezel and grey dial. The reason being, when I tried the other stainless steel with black ceramic bezel and black dial, it completely changed my impression towards how it looks! In my opinion, at least, the waves are less busy on a black dial, depending on how the light hits them looks totally different. And about that Bond nostalgia? You can certainly get that from the black bezel and dial, not with the blue and grey model.
I love this watch. I love the color. I love the contrast of the blue and gray. I love it so much I had to buy one. Don’t regret it all. The technology is there, the finish and quality are there and I’d buy it again in a second.
Never mind watches for a moment The Hoover dam I believe is still ,"cooling down" .The largest concrete pour in its mass stiil I think? The stunt you showed from the intro tripped me into my greatest passion.Civil engineering.Back to watches I do love that beauty on your wrist! Class.Cheers,Len.
i like the date window move to 6 o'clock, symmetry on a dive watch looks great
King of intros!! Goldeneye saw lots of times in my N-64 as well! Very nice piece, however the wave dial looks a little busy for my taste. I would have to see it in person. Thank you for a wonderful review. Onwards and upwards!!
I find this new iteration a step backwards in styling from the 2017 model. I find the waves a touch busy. And no applied logo!
I ordered mine blue today 😀 2017 version. My first luxury watch. I'm very happy 😀
Fantastic intro!! This is my favourite James Bond film. A great video, thanks TGV!!
Thank you Thomas :D
Best regards,
TGV
As always, TGV, your video is pure class. Seamaster perfection!
Merci beacoup mon ami!
Merci mon frère Jean-Luc! :D
Best regards,
TGV
Facenating and informative video. Think I just found my new Grail Watch. Just need the lotto up now 😉
2012 to 2017 are the best years of the Seamaster 300m. Deep Black or Deep Blue Dial with the perfect Ceramic Bezel and very light numbering. Loved how the Seamaster evolved from the original. To me personally 2018 version is not the same anymore. Yes they brought back the wave dial and new movement etc. But look at the price jump now, the old version was the best bang for your buck luxury watch. Now it’s climbed up in price and very close to the Speedy.
No matter the subject, I always look forward to The Urban Gentry's unique intro's and reviews. Good job TGV!
For this Seamaster, while some may like the changes from the previous version, they add more flash at the expense of class.
Being "TDB" (Too D*mn Big) doesn't help either.
I wished you reviewed the all blue bezel. It has the red lettering on the seamaster and has more of the nostalgic feel. I'm glad they didn't taper a 20mm braclet as I feel 20 is small enough on a case this size. Excellent review my friend. Keep it Gentry!
Did anyone notice that the date is of center after TGV changes it ?
I miss the old end links!
The new one looks more comfortable to wear indeed, but the old end links looks better IMO.
Yes. They have. (Almost). Printed name and logo was a weak move imo.
I enjoyed your video. I found it to be informative on a number of questions I've had concerning the variations I've seen. Thank you.
Both versions of the Omega Seamaster are beautiful watches. The one feature which I really admire aesthetically is the bezel with the scalloped bevels. I find that it streamlines the bezel to keep it from looking so clunky, the Omega bezel fairs nicely from bezel to crystal in one harmonious curve. It gives the optical appearance of thinness. The dial on the 2018 version is impeccable in its style and manufacture - job well done by Omega. I am not that enthralled with the hands though, not quite my cup of tea, but they are unmistakably Omega.
Great Video, The Omega Seamaster is the first (and so far only) luxury watch that I own. I really hope that Daniel Craig is wearing one of these in the next Bond film.
Whenever tgv uploads a video, my day's complete.
Love the dial on the blue version well done, You're always on time TGV
Wow TGV Goldeneye on the N64......you have just taken me right back there! Great video as usual and lovely watch. Love the Seamaster ever since I saw one in an AD 's window. Thank you for the review.......I can dream 🙂⌚
I recently bought that exact gray dial seamaster and I think it's better than the older one. The wave dial is intriguing and I like seeing the movement on the back!
