New 300m???

Stumbled across this video while wasting my day watching watch reviews. Aside from his 'opinions' on Omega, he states that there is a new 300m coming out with a 'new tapered' bracelet. Curious if anyone has heard anything along those lines. Personally, I would LOVE the seamaster on a more modern, tapered bracelet.

Not criticizing the poster, but this dude has less than 4k subscribers. I'm not sure he would have the inside scoop,

Some of his points.
a. The white dial 3861 is dull and uninspiring.
b. Omega is not prestigious.
c. Omegas are available for less when the are preowned, so never buy retail.

Poignant stuff.

One of the more irritating watch reviewers out there IMO.

I think he also jumped on the Snoopy being deleted bandwagon as well.

What do I know

Instantly painful viewing. Like being cornered by someone aggrieved and bloviating in a bar.

If the 300 had sword hands or arrow hands I would have owned one by now. Not a fan of skeleton hands. People have been calling for an improved bracelet for a long time. Omega has to be working on it.

I’ve seen this guy on YouTube. He’s almost unwatchable and talking out of his backside most of the time. Avoid.

This guy is a known flog. His opinion is worth nothing, he has no inside information with regards to new models and is best blocked from your feed.

Saw the video, and another he made, he’s like most YouTubers, take with a grain of salt, but he’s not as bad as those disparaging him say.
Besides, I really like many Omega models.
