... I really feel we don't have a stable/mature design just yet but I'm hopeful we will in the not too distant future. I see great potential in the 300M and I can't wait to see it evolve and mature.

I think there will probably always be some play in the serial designs, and the 300M might never be as rigid as some other popular/famous lines. However, one important and notable thing about the 300M so far, and very much to Omega's credit, is that all of them are instantly recognizable from a mile away. 👍 And I don't just mean the HEV.

I would really like to see one in person - looking at renders and videos for me is just not enough - as a concept I love a green dialed diver, but it is really hard to say how the light will play on the surface.

Also since Hulk and Kermit was already mentionned... To me it actually bears more resemblance to Aquaracer Proffessional 300 - I guess it is all because of its horizontal lines on the dial... ;P

I think it will shine like the other new SMP in direct sunlight.
Though I think inside it will have more of a dark green shade. I have owned a Hulk and think that the Aquaracer vs Hulk is more alike in colour and shine

I was able to see the Green in the metal. I think with the titanium James Bond is the best Seamaster IMO.
The green dial is a more like a British green color. Very nice and elegant (although I would be curios to see it with a black bezel )
I think it looks perfect on a bracelet but te rubber it's a solid alternative.

That picture captures the shade I had in mind. Clearly, it depends on the light but if it can look like that, it's going to be hard to pass up.

It is like that and I bet that in sunlight will be spectacular.
I'll probably pull the trigger at some point.

Glad to see they've made it out to some boutiques this quickly. Hopefully that is a portent of the new watches availability. For me, it'd be a very special trip; nearest boutique is five, six hours away. There are a few ADs a couple of hours away but no telling what their near-term capability will be.

I would definitely double check if they have it in store since the boutique is that far. Although I have been told that they won't be a trouble to get.

I was told at the boutique Late Spring into summer issue. This was some time ago though, when it was announced, so they may have moved it forward.

I think it's a fine choice on their part.

At that event they told us the same. We could place a deposit but the watch will be available by May/ June.

My AD said the same thing. I also spoke with another AD in Stockholm and they also confirmed that it won’t be an issue to get (though no expecting timeline, only “during summer”)

I was told in the OB that rather July is when tho expect them. They did not mention any list so I assumed taht it will be easily obtainable. Do you think it will be hard to get it?

Could you screenshot the post. Can't see it without an account. I've tried a few times to get an account just for these purposes and they tell me there's not information to determine my identity or if I'm a real person(?).
Here ya go:

Great pic! But coming back to the topic of "obtainability" - is there any need of signing up for this one? My OB says nothing of this sort. Seems to me that this one is going to be an honest and easy to get. Am I missing anything?
