I also can’t wait to go hands-on with it and do the lume shots. The green polished ceramic dial brings superb contrast when paired with Grand-Feu white enamel diving scale and the appliqué hour-markers filled with white Super-LumiNova (blue emission). Then there’s the new Omega Seamaster Diver 300M Green. True there are more contrasting black, grey and blue dialled versions but those are pretty generic colours in watchmaking. 210.32.42.20.04.001, where again the white of the dial and waves merges with that of the appliqué white indices. Then there is that white dialled version ref. 210.32.42.20.06.001, mostly because in-person, the wavy dial of that catch really takes the focus away from the time-telling apparatus. Purely based on initial press images, it’s far superior than the grey dialled version ref. The popularity of that somewhat certifies the relevance of this release as well. 220.13.41.21.10.001 again issued with a similar toned green dial. The new Omega Seamaster Diver 300M Green also reminds me of the recent Aqua Terra 150 ref. Just like the green coloured TAG Heuer Aquaracer Calibre 5 Professional 300 from last year, the timing is also right on this one now that the Rolex Hulk is officially discontinued, there is this gap for an all green diver from luxury brands that this fills. The watch comes on a polished-brushed Omega patented screw-and-pin bracelet with new integration to the case that goes from 20mm to 18mm. There is that tapering bracelet we all like as well. Given these aren’t ‘Hulk’ Submariners, these however, do take a slight hit on the secondary market. Ignore the value package that the Tudor Black Bay Fifty-Eight is, and there is no doubt that the Omega Seamaster Diver 300M collection is perhaps one of the best value for money Swiss luxury sports watches out there. The difference between buying a NOS 2019 version or a new Omega Seamaster Diver 300M Green financially is about 1’475 AUD. The retail of the new Omega Seamaster Diver 300M Green is 7’775 AUD. Now if you add the stated shipping of 205 AUD and the import costs into Australia of roughly 650 to 750 AUD, the final cost comes to at least 6300 AUD. The cheapest Co-Axial modern day version on rubber strap that I could find at the time of writing on Chrono24 going for 5’465 AUD. If you go the Omega Australia website, currently these watches are marked as ‘Wait list’.
