I have an original Seamaster 300 bought in Israel (dutyfree) just after Six Day War in August 1967. A simply wonderful divers watch which looks so classy even today

Wow, TGV. By far your best intro yet, fantastic, fantastic job.

Best presentation/review to date! Enjoyed everything about it. Especially the intro. You have simply, outdone yourself sir. This one was out of the park...

I was waiting for this review! I like how current Seamaster is heavily inspired from this particular version. Thanks TGV, great video!

Lately, your intros are the highlight of your reviews. Great creativity and artistic sense. I think I liked your last one (with your best friend) the best! But not not only is the SM 300 a cool watch, I learnt something(s) that I didn't know before. That's why I keep coming back to your videos and anticipating the next one. btw, I am currently wearing a new (to me ) Omega Speedmaster Reduced. Love it! And thanks for turning me on to it. All the best.

TGV, Great video as always, congrats on the 40,000 subscribers as well as 2 years of the channel. When it comes to watches, you certainly have one of the best channels out there. I look forward to all of the future reviews you have queued up! Onwards and upwards, RPB

Also, after seeing the end of the video, my favorite seamaster would have to be the only one I own. Which is a 1960s Seamaster Deville, given to me by my grandfather. He bought it back in the day for about 20 dollars.

Hi, loving your in-depth watch reviews. Fell in love with the Explorer 1 after your review and have never regretted buying one. Took off the bracelet and attached a rugged leather strap. Love it. I’m contemplating a 1965 Omega Seamaster 166-0-324. After watching this review, Id like to send you the ad and I’d appreciated it if you could advise what questions to ask the seller if it’s not too much trouble. I understand it’s original condition but would appreciate your feedback nonetheless. Cheers David (Australia)

Once again the information and the knowledge shared is top notch. Another great informative vid. I love this watch TGV. The domed profile is superb. Being middle class and loving watches this may be a bit unaffordable . I must check out watch co...Regards Cliff

Great Article... I have been a fan of Omega 300 for about 30 years. I watched Watch grow in the 90's. Rather than a Watchco version, I was able to purchase an original( yes everything was verified as there are many fakes out there) at a reasonable price back then. The problem with it was the owner lost the lume on the dial and a watchmaker tried to relume it and did a very bad job. I bought the watch and purchased a service dial and hands... Left the bezel alone as it had a gouge taken out of it but it is still waterproof. Glad to see there is so much interest in this watch as the Omega Seamaster 300 and Rolex 5513 are my two favorite watches from the 60's

That intro was fantastic! keep up the good work

+The Urban Gentry Likwise. There's a lot of really great retro synth stuff coming out at the moment. It's a pity that many great tracks have been ruined by excessive compression and limiting.

Aesthetically it’s the most beautiful Seamaster, I like it more than the new heritages Omega is making because of the bezel markers and the bezel looks more pronounced. I love the look of the bracelet if it were just updated with Omega’s newer clasp. This is how I think the newer heritages should look but with a 8400 movement 🧐

TGV, I'm relatively new to your channel and absolutely love it. I have always wanted a no-date Seamaster 300. Where can this be purchased?

Great reviews

Correction for you at about 12:35. You mentioned that the original version was supplied with a "big triangle" (at 12 o'clock) dial rather than this one. Actually, the "big triangle" dial was issued with later post-1967 Seamaster 300 watches. The earlier ones from 1963 to early 1967 were supplied with dials that looked just like the NOS ones that are supplied in the Watchco version you see here.

Another fantastic review, another watch I now desire haha!

Very nice of Scott to loan it to you. Yep, the WatchCo story is an interesting one. I'll give it the benefit of the doubt about being a true Omega. And yeah, the profile of the case is very cool indeed. I agree that it's a classic. I also think the PO brings it forward to the modern day.

So, NOS is best! ;) And I've got no problem to change the hands or a scratched glass with original parts. Therefore this Seamaster is a perfect alternative to an original.

The acrylic crystals are the best. They give a watch a vintage feel like nothing else, and distortions of light are exquisite. Plus they're easy to take care of if you get a scratch -- a little polywatch and your crystal is perfect again.

I had a vintage 165.024 and foolishly sold it. It's the most charming watch I've ever owned. I replaced it later on with a Seamaster 2254.5 which takes its styling cues from the vintage piece but if anything it just makes me want another SM300. Nothing wrong with the watchcos either IMO.
