    I have neither of those. Guess I will have to wait for someone to post pictures and/or chime in further.

    I‘d love to see a no date smp300, but from the hands and bezel designs plus slightly domed crystal I put my money on an overhaul of the Planet Ocean lineup.

    Definitely is a PO... Maybe some kind of "Deep Sea" version?

    Here's hoping for a slimmer "Shallow Waters" version. 600M of WR - how deep would you want it to go?

    I had a DEEPSEA a few years ago that was rated 3900m. It would be great if they could match that.

    Why? I'd much rather see Omega matching the thickness of the Submariner. Depth ratings like those we see here are merely bragging rights, wearability is a real issue, IMO :)

    Try getting that sucker pressure tested. 1000m is hard enough for me to get done in Australia

    This might be one for @Archer

    How hard would it be to pressure test a 3900m watch ?

    I my self find a 3900m rating excessive. Case design is more important.

    Absolutely @ConElPueblo . A slimmer 43mm PO would be the way to go.

    @AntonisCy I think Omega‘s professional deep sea diver spot will stay occupied by the PloProf.

    Come on Omega, introduce a 150m rated, manually wound skindiver. Hell, give it a rattly bracelet, plexiglass and possibly a chromed case for full on retro feel :D

    The picture seems to be a PO, but the current PO line is from 2016 already master chronometer certified. I do not think that they renew that product line especially given the fact that the 2016 design just got the new white - orange model with lume on the bezel etc.

    The original 300 re-issue happened around 2014 and the video starts mentioning the history of that model... so I would think that this is going to be a more advanced new 300 model (not the diver). Probably a GMT edition or some other interesting features (lume on bezel too etc.). Also that's the last one without the master chronometer certification, so that's a point for upgrade too.

    The bezel looks like a matte ceramic PO diving bezel and there is no GMT hand visible.

    I'm rooting for a skin diver, saddened to see that it will not have an aluminium bezel inlay :(

    Yes, that's an option too. Seems to be quite a PO, but you know... there can be always surprises :)
