New 300 MC arrived today
I love it. It's almost exactly the same size as my Speedmaster, about the upper size limit for me. I thought hard about buying the blue one, but I chickened out because I was concerned about how the lumen color would look with the blue dial. ...
Yes, I agree with you about blue. It's an amazing watch but would have looked definitely better with white or off white lumes. Definitely not with present lumes. That doesn't go well with such a remarkable blue dial.
I hope Omega may bring out another version with white lumes next year and take my money. A very good watch you've bought that goes so well on your wrist. Congratulations.
Thanks for the kind words.
If they do release a blue with white lume it will be stunning. I'm sure it will probably look great even with the beige lume. I just didn't feel comfortable enough to buy it without seeing it in person first.
The blue intrigues me though. Just not sure about the size. The old blue Ti version would’ve been ok for if it came in ss and maybe a bit more pop on that blue..
Glad to see real world pics of this watch. Looks good on you and i’m sure it’s comfy with the micro adjust clasp
Yes,
The bracelet is very nice. I was frustrated by the lack of taper on the trilogy bracelets. The clasp on this one is much less bulky than the trilogy clasps.
I'd be inclined to go for the titanium version myself - it comes across . . .
. . . as one of the better values around. Exceptionally comfortable, with presence in spades. And that blue dial . . . striking, and then some. Art
I completely agree
That titanium 300 MC is a real beauty. It doesn't seem to be available new anymore. I saw some great deals on it last year but they seem to be running out.
