Hello guys,

Just bought a pre-owned 300M white dial, and I noticed that they is play where the bracelet end links meets the case. Could other 300m owners chime in if it’s within tolerances?

Thank you!
Ryan

Took mine off my wrist and gave it a go… there’s definitely a tiny bit of play, but not as pronounced as yours.

This is a non-issue to me. Do you notice it when it’s on wrist? If not, just enjoy the watch.

Nice looking watch and congratulations! I cannot comment on the play but I guess there has to be a measure of clearance. Hopefully others will chime in.

don't have a 300M but my PO doesn't have that much clearance on its end links.

It is normal if it is the same at both ends. There is some play.

Mine has play on both ends, its normal. IMHO Omega tolerances aren't as tight as Rolex. Rolex are so tight even removing a bracelet can be scary.

Hey guys! Just wanted to provide an update, took it to my watchmaker who said that it had incorrect spring bars, the previous owners must’ve lost it and just threw on whatever he had.

I ordered brand new Omega spring bars and they fit perfectly with no end link play now, super stoked with my new purchase.

Many thanks to everyone who commented!

I got mine on different Omega natos and it's great, very comfortable and I'm enjoying the different options.
