A decade ago, it was all about the Swiss omega seamaster diver 300m co-axial gmt chronograph 44mm replica watch. It was the James Bond watch, and it was an extremely versatile timepiece that came in a range of sizes, styles, and with both mechanical and quartz movement offerings.With so much focus on the Seamaster Planet Ocean and the new for 2014 Seamaster 300 (not 300M, yes, we know it is a bit confusing), the longstanding Omega Seamaster 300M doesn’t get all the attention it perhaps deserves.

While most omega seamaster diver 300m replica watch today are three-hand automatics, there are some chronograph versions (such as the Omega Seamaster 300M Co-Axial Chronograph ETNZ Limited Edition, and its non-limited edition variants), and now for 2014, a Chronograph GMT Co-Axial. The movements are not fully in-house, but rather combine custom Omega parts with stock ETA movements.Today, the Omega Seamaster 300M collection is relatively basic and exists just under the Seamaster Planet Ocean in terms of price. Frankly, the movements are very good and the value is there too, but you can’t turn them over and admire them like you can the very pretty in-house made Omega calibers.

In many ways, this new chronograph and GMT version of the omega seamaster replica watch is a minor update to the Seamaster 300M Co-Axial Chronograph, but with a revised dial and GMT hand. That is OK with me, because I think it is a solid addition of a desirable feature.

Well, to make things better/more frustrating, Omega has released the omega replica watch as another model that ticks off several boxes in your “want list.There are a complex set of considerations, pluses, minuses, and “should I hold out for X” thoughts that go through your head.
