Bezel on the stainless Seamasters is Aluminum but on the bronze gold it is in fact ceramic.

That's what makes the bronze attractive to me, but also the fact that it is just a stunning piece! Probably my favourite of the lot!

Oh I hadn’t seen the blue dial on rose gold, that’s very, very nice indeed. I’m really, really digging this Tresor a whole lot. I wonder if they’re going to make a PT950 halo model like they did the original Tresor reboot?

Was hoping on seeing an update to the globemaster and planet ocean line up. Looks like I'll have to be patient.

Not going to run out to buy that new Seamaster 300 because I think the older model is still better looking. However, I really dig that new bracelet. I hope it will fit the older model. Since the overall case size did not change, I’m keeping my fingers crossed. I like the polished edges, the 16mm taper, AND the end-piece connection. That’s the bracelet that should have come on the old version!

Was thinking the same, but I would get it brushed like I did for the current bracelet. Expensive endeavor though

The new 300 has a thinner case, and I believe the lug-to-lug distance is shorter (I believe the lugs themselves are shorter). Thinner and shorter lug-to-lug are big wins for most wrists IMO.

Thanks for these. I like the new 300 quite a bit, and the red and blue Tresors are gorgeous. Don't see any ending up on my wrist but I'd def like to see the bronze and blue in the metal.

Thanks for posting this @AntonisCy. I just noticed the bronze Seamaster 300 has a different seconds hand - not the lollipop. Interesting they would differentiate even more between the models that way.

Edit: And... yep, it's called out in the Fratello article too. Guess I should have read it first. 🤦 Anyway, these new versions look good. Still on the fence about the lollipop seconds hand - will have to wait to see one in person.

Is it thinner I thought it was mentioned to be thicker?

Hodinkee is saying it is 13.85mm, but Fratello is saying 14.4mm. I guess in general it is the same as the previous model at around 14mm roughly.

Yes the golden one has a normal seconds hand and a ceramic bezel while the stainless steel has the lollipop hand an a hardened aluminum bezel

Prior version was 15mm thick while the new one is just under 14mm. Omega needed to make it under 13mm.

Agreed, they must find a way to bring down the thickness. Such an elegant looking watch cannot remain slab like on the wrist.
