How to Kill A Rolex Submariner | Jenni Elle

Is the Omega Seamaster Diver 300m killing the Rolex Submariner? In this video I am going to give the Omega Seamaster some well deserved screen time and together we see, what the Rolex-Killer talk is all about!

Omega Seamaster Diver 300m
The current seamaster comes with an increased size, making this one measure 42mm in diameter, with a lug to lug of 49mm and a height of 13,5mm, therefore making it bigger than previous models.
The entire case is made from stainless steel and alternates between a polished or brushed finishing on its surface.
The matte black rubber strap is very durable and - to my surprise - does not show scratches as quickly as I thought it would. The strap itself closes with a regular pin buckle which works just fine.
On the right side of the case sits the crown tightly in-between the crownguards which adds to the 300m water resistance of the case. Right above 10 o clock we also have a helium escape valve, which has been slightly improved and is now only usable when being underwater.
The bezel on this Seamaster 300m has the same ceramic inlay as its previous models but this time the Markers on the bezel are no longer engraved but enameled, making the bezel not only look super glossy but also feel almost completely even.
The dial is made from Zirconium Dioxide making it look very shiny, almost mirror like with some laser engraved waves that honor the design of the very first Seamaster.
The hour markers are perfect circles and sticks, each filled with bright white superluminova, framed by a thin black border
The hands are also similar to the hands on the previous models but, they are also skeletonized with superlumionva applied to it but the they have a way more intense acute angle towards to middle. The hour markers light up in an ice bon bon blue while the hands and the little pearl on the bezel glow in a bright green, making this watch super easy to read in the dark.
The date that has been placed at 6 instead of 3 o clock like we had on the previous models.
Built in is the omega in-house calibre 8800 which is METAS as well as COSC certified.
Thank you for watching, I hope you enjoyed my review of the Seamaster Diver 300m!

    Totally right except for one point. Even if you want a Sub you shouldn't buy one at least in my eyes. The main reason is you shouldn't support bad behavior. The fact they don't make enough and you have to either wait at least a year or pay way too much money. I really want a Rolex but until they actually care about customers I will never buy one.

    @@AlwaysBolttheBird I get what you're saying, as someone that's been waiting forever for a GMT-Master II Batgirl, I truly feel your pain. However, the reason Rolex watches hold their value so much better than other brands of similar quality and build (Omega, Breitling, etc.) is the limited supply. So although their methods hurt people looking to buy a Rolex, for those that already have one, their methods help them retain the value. So, I fully get what you're saying... but if I buy anything but what I want, I'm just going to want the Rolex again in 6 months to a year.

    2Crassus Crassus have you ever tried to “wait” for a Rolex? In order to even get on a list you usually have to have bought from the jeweler before they will even let you on the list (I know that’s the keeper and not Rolex but just another hurdle to buy a watch) and then you wait three years for something that is just a watch. There is nothing so special about a Rolex that they can’t make more of them. If you think that Rolex doesn’t make more because they care then you are delusional. They make way less to make them seem more special than they are. If they made more and you could just go and buy one people would realize they are no more special than any other watch.

    Matthew Russo so basically what you are saying is Rolex is gate keeping. If you already have one great if not we don’t care. I would argue that you shouldn’t buy a watch as an investment. It’s actually a pretty bad investment. You should buy a watch because you want one and want to even pass it down. I would also argue that Rolex watches don’t actually hold value but are so artificially inflated that are just more expensive because you can’t get one.

    I just bought a brand new Seamaster 300M (in blue with a rubber strap) last week! I was shopping for a Breitling Superocean Heritage II, and the AD had her Omega case right next to the Breitlings. I looked over and saw the Seamaster. I put it on and was unexpectedly blown away! I bought it on the spot and absolutely LOVE it. I should say I already have 2 Rolexes (a 1984 GMT Master II "Sophia Loren" and a 1949 dress watch) so I don't have any of that brand envy. I've owned Subs in the past, and I really think the Seamaster is a more beautiful and satisfying watch for my collection.

    One point that I see everyone failing to raise in those comparisons is "how modern" the watch looks. If you buy a watch to complete your image and so you care about its design & style (which is more common than caring about its tech specs), the Seamaster divers is a watch that screams 21th century loudly... it has fine details, shiny materials, perfect engravings... it's rich and detailed. It's MODERN. The Sub is awesome, but it clearly shows its design years, it's "classic". If they were cars, the submariner would be the Ferrari 512bb, the Seamaster would be the F12 berlinetta. I think the choice between the sub and the 300m diver is mostly about the different image you want to project, not the tech specs (which I disagree with you: they are not on par, they are MUCH in favour of the Omega).

Just look at how dated a 1990s Seamaster is vs a submariner from that era, and their prices on used market strongly reflected that as well.

The problem with omega is their lack of will to stick to a design and commit for decades to it. The current seamaster will be "old" because omega will release 10 new divers in the next 10 years, all different.

    The Seamaster is available to purchase. I got one, barely used, and still under the 5-year warranty for $4000.00. Perfect condition. It's not going to find its value go up as the Submariner has, and the PP Natilus, and the AP Royal Oak. It is going to hold value and with time depreciate a little but essentially it is not a watch to buy as an investment like Rolex and the others, but is a watch to WEAR and to be proud of!

    Hi Jenni, I believe that the SMP 300 is definitely better than the Sub due to the fact it is readily available in the boutique and also a lot cheaper and you can get a discount. I have the blue dial with rubber strap as my daily beater and with the ceramic bezel, dial design and antimagnetic movement, it beats the s Sub hands down as I own the Kermit and made the comparison myself. I know the Sub model that I have is pre-ceramic however comparing both watches with the pricing, definitely Omega SMP300 kills the Submariner.

    Great quality video! I got both the Sub and the Seamaster Pro and even though they are competitors, you can hardly compare them. They are both amazing watches, but both in very different ways. Personally I disagree about the bracelet and actually find this the clearest aspect where the Omega is better. The Rolex bracelet looks better and more refined, but the Omega bracelet feels extremely well made and the Omega push system in the clasp works easier and more accurate than the Rolex glidelock. The only aspect where the Sub is clearly better is the bezel action. The Omega bezel is good, but the one on the Sub is just the best...

Including multiple scuba dive trips, uncountable salt water fishing, snorkeling and week long white water rafting trips. It still looks great and I had it looked at by a watch maker today who says it is within specifications but he would replace the seals due to the age. I have zero complaints about omega and would happily buy another. I was actually there looking at the seamaster 007, railmaster and the seamaster 300 heritage models.

I have had a ceramic submariner and sold it as it got little wrist time once I bought a 16710 GMT master II. the seamaster is a "better" watch than the sub in many ways but the rolex model is a superstar and I would fully understand why people will accept nothing less than a sub and hence the silly prices. at one third the cost and available the seamaster is the thinking man's choice.

As such they were very popular with the military, including the US Navy Seals. They started winding down production around 2000, but in 2009 they were reintroduced, probably to counter the Omega range.

    Personally I think that despite the two watches being compared a hell of a lot that they actually fill two different markets. The seamaster more commonly will act as a first foray into luxury watches as it is such a value packed watch with unique design detailing and a heritage to match. The fact you cannot get a steel sports model when you walk into an AD means the equivalent sub just cant compete with the seamaster unless you are willing to drop double the retail value of the seamaster on the watch which many seamaster buyers are not looking at doing... Either way you make great points suggesting the strength of this watch as it certainly is a great watch but a submariner buyer would most likely not consider buying a seamaster as a replacement rather they would buy it and then sell it while they are on the waitlist for the subs. Anyway great video Jenni! Love the production quality as always!

    I don’t really think it’s a “first foray” watch, with an MSRP of $5,200, or even with a discount. It used to be everyone’s first good watch 10 years ago, but the prices have gradually moved up every year such that it’s basically a fine luxury watch, period. A first foray watch today would be something like an Oris, Longines, or even Tudor Black Bay diver. This watch is a little too spendy to be a first foray watch anymore for many.

    Hout & Co good point. Pre owned the new Seamaster can be obtained in the low 4K range U.S., but that was the price of the SMP brand new about seven years ago. Used SMPs could be had under 3k back then. The price increase has been significant, and watches like the Oris 65, Black Bay, etc., are more recent and significantly cheaper options. I hope the Seamaster maintains its status as a good first mechanical watch for many. It is much better watch than the cheaper options I mentioned
