I was recently watch shopping and one of our favourite Authorised Dealers had THESE BABIES IN! And they were so kind to let me fully geek out. Here is the NEW Seamaster 75th Anniversary Omega Aqua Terra and Seamaster Diver 300. I have changed my mind on these after seeing them in the metal!

Rolex always looks better in pics than real life, and Omega always looks better in real life than pics.
Pics can't show a half ot the beauty! You HAVE to see them in personal ...
This is true of many watches in my experience. I've sent more watches back than I've kept because they just don't look anywhere as good as pictures or video reviews.
Agree 👍
My favorite (and officially the coolest) Summer Blue variant is the one that you didn’t mention in this video - the PLANET OCEAN! 🌊
This is my favourite toooo!!! I am dying to see it in person!
Yes! Hands down
Another great video! I think of many brands Omega suffers from their watches looking 'ordinary' in photographs, but when you see them in the case and on the wrist they are fall-in-love beautiful. I say that as an absolutely self confessed Omega fan boy. Now all I need is that £5900...
Aqua Terra on rubber strap = best watch ever!!
Aqua Terra on bracelet = pretty good…Kinda…
After looking at a dozen other watches, my guy brought out 300 and that was it. I finally got my have a white face in my collection. Thanks Britt
The Summer Blues collection is truly breathtaking! 😍
That’ll be the cold winter weather of availability 😉
@@borassictime918😂😂😂
I saw the Summer blue Seamaster and the colors are beautiful. My choice would be the Planet Ocean 39.5 mm.
Imho, Omega knocked it out of the park and just sent Rolex a gut punch
Great video Gringa. “Always see the watch in person!” Bought mine on sight. Purchased the Aqua Terra 38 when they first came out! Couldn’t be happier! This watch receives more complements and looks than any other in my collection (which includes PP, Rolex, JLC and others). It’s the perfect do anything summer watch. Beach to boardroom. Love the caseback! I also have an open caseback 300 vintage. So I can see the comparison.
Ahhh the 38!!! SO GOOD! Big congrats on owning this one!
The 38mm AT has indices made from white gold, I think that's why they are a touch more expensive
Bought myself the AT 38 for a big birthday. Saw it in the window and that was that. Stunning❤
We're getting the Summer Blue in Winter lets GOOOOOOOOOOOO
In the aqua terra shades models, the smaller watch is more expensive because the hands, indecies, logo, and date window are 18k white gold. On the larger model they are rhodium plated steel. I would imagine this new range is the same.
dude that’s great info! didn’t know! thank you 😮
nah. the sam AT in smaller size is also more expensive. Nothing to do with the gold elements. Gold parts would make the watch double price not a few hundred more.
Check out the regular AT blue in 38 and 41. smaller is always little more expensive because people dont buy big watches anymore. 38mm is a much better standard size. I am a man with a normal wrist and i bought the 38mm as well. would never touch 41 unless is a diver or other purpose watch.
I understand the commend about wanting “more” for an anniversary edition, but I think they’ve done plenty to make these anniversary versions distinct. In 1998, they did the 50th Anniversary Seamaster GMT 2534.50.00, which added the GMT complication and bezel, but didn’t look all that different from the regular black SMP. I think this series goes way further in terms of making them visually distinct.
Watchgringa is getting videos out super fast. Which is great !! Its just indicates you have passed thru u get well phase and now doing well post ur unfortunate mishap. ❤ and You seem happier as well.
Great video, Britt. Hopefully I’ll get a chance to see them at the AD or boutique.
Gringa! So hearing you state your mean little heart melting, I had this mental picture of you in a furry green sweater, and you had changed you name to Watch.Grincha!!!! Agree with you on the date wheel color having to match, and on the color being an oceanic ice blue. Would not consider it a summer blue. Keep up the great videos and have a great day. Long Live the Cult(s) and 4:30 date windows.
P.S. I just picked up a used Citizen Promaster divewatch and it has a 4 o'clock date window that I know you would love!!
LOL. THATS IT! Over the Christmas season I’d like to be known ONLY AS Watch Grincha or GRINGLE Bells. 🤣💕💕
One thing these date windows DO have going for them is that they are not 4:30 date windows…. 😝😝🤣🤣💕💕
BUUUUT OMG. BIGGEST CONGRATS EVER ON THE NEWEST WATCH PICK UP! Wear it in good health! And I hope you enjoy it lots! 💕💕💕 you know - it’s criminal I haven’t had a Citizen watch on the channel. I need to change that!
Aww I love York! I spent two months there for work and fell in love with that city.
Gah! Isnt it enchanting?! All the Christmas markets are on now too and it is just magical!
Love the channel and I agree on the case back. Keep up the good work.
I saw the Ultra Deep summer blue on flesh, a damn great looking watch, thick as the Rolex deep sea, but wayyyy cooler and awsome looking watch
I thought these were a homerun from the start, I love them!! The seamaster paris model for the 2024 games is stunning as well!!
A couple of months ago I was choosing between Summer Blue 41mm Aquaterra and 41mm Small Seconds Aquaterra in blue on rubber. And finally got the last one. Its blue is a step to grey compare to Summer Blue, seconds sub-dial makes the appearance brighter. I like that more.
But Seamaster 300 (not 300M!) Summer Blue is a killer.
I bought the AT literally just walking by the boutique. In person it’s gorgeous.
And the best part might be the rubber strap
the singing is back!! another great freestyle Britt!
I really wish Omega would have included a version of the Seamaster CK859 re-issue too. It already had heat blued hands. Maybe just changing the dial from silver to an almost white powder blue and a matching strap.
Its not a Seamaster
I accidently bought a Seamaster of which I was not a fan on a auction not expecting my very low bid was going to be the winning one, now I'm a Seamaster "fan", I like it, again it proved how important it is to have a watch tried out on the wrist
LOL cool way to be introduced to a watch!
A tool watch featuring a closed caseback= no problem. It’s proper.
I’ve got a couple watches with exceptional looking movements and even those, I rarely look at past the first two weeks if that. One is on a bracelet which makes it a little more difficult to see anyway.
I wouldn’t begrudge someone for wanting a display back, but in truth there’s lots of watches with a movement on display and nothing to see. A well done engraved or molded caseback can be a very cool thing.
Thanks for not begruding. My toolwatch is a Garmin Fenix 6 and I have a couple of G-Shocks as backups. Nothing mechanical can beat those watches, so if I'm spending thousands of dollars on jewelry, I want to see the movement (I'll give Seikos a pass since they're mostly affordable, but the Seiko LX line is complete BS.)
For this reason, my fantasy watch is a Santos Dumont with a nicely finished movement on display; that dial is timelessly elegant yet handsome and the only thing holding it back from perfection is a display back. For the money, Omega movements are actually really good looking too, so they don't need to be embarrassed about it.
The 38mm Aqua Terra is more expensive because its from the Aqua Terra Shades line.
And I agree. In person they are beautiful. I own the 300m in green and have a hard time deciding which looks better.
I quite agree, I felt like the diver 300 looked a bit average, but in person it's fantastic, I prefer it over the standard one and hopefully will be picking one up in a few weeks
"Until next time you beautiful, fabulous watch nerds...BYE!"
Love AT on the rubber strap ,thanks ❤️❤️👍🏴, what a voice 🤫😜
I can definitely see you rock in Aqua Terra
and ahh I don't have money for watch these day but cosplay lol
Had to hit pause so I could mop up the drool on my keyboard....that 38mm Aqua Terra is sumptuous!
The blue Ploprof really pops in person
Love the blue seamaster 300 in this colour combo
Someone had told me that the smaller aqua terra was more expensive because they use gold (or some kind of precious metal) on the hour markers and the larger aqua terra doesn’t. Not too sure if this is true.
Britt is here 😉😍
For years I’ve thought about getting a Seamaster 300M but never did it. But this edition is just stunning !!!!!
This might just be the one for me, I just love that dial 🤩
What’s your thought about the bracelet options, steel or rubber?
Simply lovely video 💕
Edwin is HERE! 💕🎉 ahhh! It might be time to pull the trigger on the Diver 300! 😈💕 but I totallly get it - I am exactly the same. I’ve been sooo close to pulling the trigger on a Seamaster (neovintage 36 for me!) but I just haven’t brought myself to actually buy one yet. ONE DAY!
You know! I should have spoke to the bracelet and straps. So… as we know… I’m not the biggest fan of the SMP bracelet 😅🙈 BUUUUT I 💕 the strap! As for the Aqua Terra - bracelet all the way. The bracelet is so nice! 😍
✌🏻👩🏻🦱✌🏻
I’m making no comment here today, but love the video .
🙆🏻♀️ love the singing at the end.
Gringa Thursday 🎉
What a lovely watches and totally love the gradient of blue depending on the water resistance ❤.
Have a great day Britt 👍🏻
Dr Fernando is in the HOUSE! GRINGA THURSDAY LETS GOOOO! This whole week is going by too fast. -.-
Ahh, I really love these! Very mindful, well done Omega!
You brought back the pope tier patron song now you must bring back the kitty as well.
Uhhhhh summer's over!!! 😂🥶🧊🥶🧊🎄😂
There is nothing better then a open case back especially on a nice diver like a Blancpain or a a GO seaQ imo😜
Great video as usual!
Ps: we need your take on that beautiful Railmaster Denim please 😍🙌🏼.
is green still the flavor of the week?
I believe the 38mm is more pricey because they use white hold for the indexes and hands.
Yes, I am wearing the summer blue 300M now - superb watch
Nicest straps in Omega collection.
Open case back is the only way to go
So I’ve just gotten the summer blue 300 diver on bracelet, but tbh it’s going on a blue diver strap, this watch is absolutely stunningly gorgeous, somnow my wife has taken to wearing my smp300 white dial, but that’s okay I can live with that.
Love your content Brittney.
👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
The 38MM AT on the bracelet is so lovely.
Right?! AT on the bracelet always!
hi Britt, could use your advice, i have given up on getting a rolex i want, not standing in line, just sold my 39 mm explorer, feels like getting something festive, noticeable and large; IWC big pilot 43mm, blue, on SS bracelet , thoughts? any other suggestions?
The date wheel not matching the dial is a pet peeve. Why does my $400 Zelos have that but not my friend's $11k Submariner? It just makes the watch look so much cleaner
I wasn't enthralled when I saw the press release! But going to have to check out the Planet Ocean now! 😂
The date wheel on the 300 blows chunks, plus I'd never buy a watch with an arrow on the hour hand.
"When i saw the Summer Blues in the store it changed my mind about these." Same here. Until i saw them in the Omega Store, i thought they were kinda cool but they're not. Unfortunately they lack any vibe in real life while looking dang cool on pictures. The Ultra Deep is still a cool watch because of the Easter Egg on the dial but the over all impression was like "O.k., i've seen them. Let's go home."
Summer watches just in time for winter
Just in time for winter!
I going to buy a aqua terra 41 summer blue but the colour blue seems to be of novelty but i may be wrong
I have the 300M summer blue. Colour was made to reflect the ocean off Mykonos in Greece. Hence the indices look swimming pool blue, not cold
While im an omega fan, and i do find this watches pretty good looking, i was expacting more, specially for the smp. And im not sayiing huge changes, but specially for the smp, i would like to see the 8900 movement in it and an upgrated bracelet. A few more things there and there to make uldate the watches mechanucally as well and make them.a bit more oremium, so the can nustify the HUGE pricetag.
Excellent use of "wanky",
I agree that dial colour and date wheel should be colour matched.
Bahaha, I'm glad to meet a fellow w@nker! ;)
Berrys are amazing - been to Windsor a few times.
I want to note that you have not understood the meaning of this line - all the beauty of this watch can only be appreciated outside on a summer and sunny day - it must be seen with your own eyes
I had the 300 diver in my hands in Las Vegas. I put it back. Kind of a drab dial with sharp edges on the bracelet.
Whoah Thursday video 🎉.
Summer blues just in time to the winter. You’ve got to admit it’s a little poetic move by omega😅
Bahaha surprise! Thursday! And I know right?! Summer blue... Finally available in almost-December ;)
Beautiful watches, the sea blue colour and the name seamaster all togeteher is just wow. Awesome in every aspect. NO HATE MAN, HATERS should finally learn to RESPECT these watches, these editions are damn cool😅
All the haters are people that probably can't afford one anyway. This whole collection is awesome.
I think the 38mm AT is more expensive simply because it's a newer and maybe more popular design. Omega asks more money for it because... they can.
I was told by my Omega AD that the Summer Blue Ploprof will be available in 2024. I somehow got on the list early and will get the first one at my AD. I hope it will be worth the wait!
Lucky!!! Truly a unique watch
love the 300 retro now its blue instead of fauxtina-y
damn.......those look amazing! 🤩
Right?! They've melted my cold heart!
My wife said i must get the summer blue aqua terra 41mm
Happy wife happy life right 😊
Pls can you review the newer omega mens constellation 41 size watches , love to know your thoughts versus classic constellations 💭
Ref:example-

Got my NTTD from Berry's, great staff. Glad you had a nice time up here. I've tried on the summer blue 300M and it's lovely but it doesn't have the contrast I'd like to be able to quickly check the time in bad lighting or when I'm diving. I'd prefer to get the green instead.
That NTTD is so gorgeous. Only seen it through cabinet glass
Seamasters are fairly decent beater watches.
Now I have to look for your cute little song on apple music or spotify.
Bahaha! Oh no no, it is a CZcams exclusive! ;)
Why is the 38mm more expensive than the others? Because "reasons". Lol. I gave up trying to understand watch pricing a long time ago.😂
LOL! I JUST DONT GET IT! 🤣 like itd be perfectly normal (in my mind) if the 41mm was a couple hundred $$ more. But it just seems so backwards to me! 🤣🤷🏻♀️🤷🏻♀️🤷🏻♀️ but dang both of the watches look so good!
Great video thank you !
You were right
The Bigger question is... Is Gringa buying a railmaster denim dial (now they are discontinued)?
YOU KNOOOOW, this must be one of the last ones left in the country! They are definitely phasing out! :'(
I want to see the PO and ultra deep
I love the summer blue, but I wish so bad that they'd kept the open caseback. It pains me to have such a beautiful movement not shown off.
It's the blue 'Denim' Railmaster that sneaks into the vid that steals the show for me! czcams.com/video/NL84fXV6JaE/video.html
Go "Team Closed" !
If the name on the dial said rolex instead of omega, people would have been rushing to get them.
grreat review and the city york ,i live nearby id recomend anyone going for a few days great history and atmosphere..especialy xmas market time
I love these colors, I just don't understand who decided to ditch the open casebacks ...
Ahh I love the closed casebacks! ;)
Great video!
The escape valve ruins it.
Ahhhh the ever contentious HE Escape Valve 🤣💕
Helium Escape valve is iconic, wouldn't be a modern Seamaster 300m w/o it. Plus! A differentiator from the Submariner and the myriad of "Submariner-like" dive watches out there.
Awesome Britt👍🌟
I know you're not a big fan, but I love the 300m Heritage. It's such a great alternative to a no-date sub, technically better in almost every way and available! Would have loved to see that included.
Interesting because this video sort of “woke me up” to the 300 Heritage. I’ve always been lukewarm on it kept thinking this color way might work as a good companion to my black dial 300m Diver. Also, since the AT 41mm is already somewhat of a thick watch, might as well get the 300 Heritage and not have to deal with the date complication.
Also, good point about it being a Sub alternative.
@@eyeheartsushi2212 The post 2021 Heritage is thinner than the previous model at 13.9mm, but that measurement includes the domed crystal so it feels thinner. With the fantastic 8912 movement, crystal back and fully lumed bezel, it makes a very compelling alternative to the no-date sub.
@@FazerWiz Yeah it’s still a thick watch but Tudor is making progress.
you are the taylor swift of the watch world ! The wirstwatch superstar , you should get very well paid by brands ! with love from the Netherlands
The Christopher Ward C60 Tide is very similar to the Seamaster but looks far superior in my opinion and at £1k is much more affordable.
I want to try on the 39.5mm planet often ocean.... That's the best looking one I could actually fit on my wrist.
I love blu dial❤
Omega will have to wait. Apple has my bank account on a drip.
LOL
Closed case back is fine if it is decorated. If just plain steel then I’d rather a display
Any tips for a nice and elegant dress watch?
Practically anything from Cartier.
Hi, what about the AR coating, is it noticeable when it get scratched and is it possible to polish it off? Thanks!
Omega stepped their game up, it was sinking before the co-axial/8500/8800/8900 and of course the ceramic bezel inserts (those 2500 and aluminum insert were mildly horrible) however the current prices are way too high.
(“yeah….”) 😁😁😁
