Should I swap my steel Seamaster 300 Master Co-Axial for a Titanium one?

Title says it all. I've had my steel 300MC since 2015, and also added a Trilogy to my collection earlier this year. I was originally going to get rid of the 300MC, but have held on to it, and find that there's enough different between it and the Trilogy to justify both in my collection. Pics of both below.


Recently, I've contemplated swapping out the Steel for the Titanium. (To be clear, I would still keep the Trilogy!) Tried a NOS titanium in the store and found it so incredibly light -- it felt like plastic, even though I know it's not!



The weight of the steel doesn't bother me per se, so I suppose it boils down to the color difference. I have other blue divers and other black divers, so am kind of at an impasse. Part of me fears that I'm just doing this to shake things up, but would love opinions from other owners of the steel 300MC, owners of the titanium version, or people who have handled both for some period of time!

No.
But that's my personal point of view because I don't like titanium watches.

I own a blue titanium Omega Seamaster 300 heritage. I’ve had is for just over a year. Got it from Ernest & Jones for £4,950 (reduced from £6,950) in a flash sale pre a lockdown.

I like the weight of this watch, it makes it very wearable as does the superb micro adjustment on the deployment clasp. I’ve married it with a blue Omega NATO strap with grey edging for summer wear. Also the grade 5 titanium was a big plus factor for me.

I tend to alternate it with my Panerai 8 Day, and I’ve semi retired my Non date Ceramic Sub (worn on a rubber B strap) and dial Datejust in a oyster dial as it’s so comfortable.

One other factor, this watch is apparently now discontinued as it’s been replaced with a SS model. The newer version has a aluminium bezel insert and outer polished links in the strap. I’ve seen it at me local AD and I didn’t like it. Looked like a lot of cheaper versions by other brands. Interesting though both Goldsmiths and Ernest & Jones said they are one of their current best sellers. They were interested in looking at my titanium model as Goldsmiths Cribbs Causeway had never had one in in the metal strap. Given the short run I’m wondering if this is a future collectors piece. So to answer your question, I would grab one whilst you still can.
