    If this was an option on the market I'd be heavily considering it...and I would have debated getting it over the blue/blue option back in February when I purchased my Omega SMP

    What do you think?

    Yes, I think the White gives it a very nice look and it’s very legible. Having said that I don’t see many of these I don’t like, in any color

    It looks fresh and in overall is a very good match. Well, I am a huge fan of the silver dial, yours photoshop is on a par.

    It's lovely, but I wonder the white perhaps lends itself to a "fresher," brighter blue? I'd definitely consider that, and perhaps a red/white also. Thanks for the render.

    EDIT: Maybe something a but Squale-ier?

    I bet it would look fabulous on an Omega blue rubber strap.

    If Omega came out with that, I’d definitely get it.

    Yeah that really looks good. Very fresh and nautical. Would probably make it wear a bit smaller too which is great for my thin wrists. Sort of how an orange PO looks smaller on my wrist than the 300M. Did you edit out the date? I haven’t seen a white dial no date version. And like someone else said would look great with the blue rubber strap.

    At this point, from the comments I've read. It seems like Omega needs a "Build your own custom Seamaster 300m" where various dial and bezel colors are available and you order the combo you want. Each watch comes with the steel bracelet, and a rubber strap and a nato strap of your choice. Haha.

    I think the white dial with a lighter sky blue colored dial or a ducati red color would be nice to see as well.

    Really no reason why the couldn’t do that other than logistics. It’s only mix and match. Maybe as the world moves more towards e-commerce we’ll see this implemented.

    I know I'm a sucker for being able to buy things like this with the option to customize it....

    I need to get past the render and see real life photos but, in principle, yes. After all you could pop the bezel insert and replace it with something else.

    Same...i'd love to see it in person or at least a pretty darn good HD render. I'd also love to see it in a lighter shade of blue. Like an aqua or sky blue color.

    I prefer it to the white with black bezel. Looks to harsh but that looks better to my eyes.

    Would you want it with the silvered hands and applied markers, or maybe those should be blue, too. Like the limited edition Aqua Terra.

    I would seriously consider it even though I think I’d still lean more towards the current black bezel/white dial.

    I think for this to work, you'd really need blue hands and a blue # on white date wheel, possibly even blue lettering but that might be either too much or be really cool.
