Omega Replica Debuts New Precious Metal Bronze Alloy In Seamaster 300

The trio of brand new Best Omega Seamaster 300 Replica references, which update the vintage-inspired Seamaster 300 Master Co-Axial collection introduced in 2014 with an even more wearable new 41mm case, and a fresh dial & bezel, all powered by Master Chronometer automatic movements.

Omega’s metallurgists even whipped up an entirely new semi-precious case material called Bronze Gold, which at first glance feels a little bit like an ‘also-ran,’ but then you realize that Omega is skipping the bronze trend entirely by offering something totally new.

The end result is an amber-colored 9k gold watch which uses less than half the amount of solid gold found in a comparable 18k Seamaster 300 clone watches. Thusly, the watch is slightly heavy only relative to its steel counterparts, and definitely lacks the very tactile “oh wow” factor that a traditional solid gold diver tends to elicit on the wrist.

And in a particularly clever twist, the Bronze Gold case frames a brown dial that has been subtly pre-aged from CuSn8, which is the more traditional bronze alloy used in many dive watch cases – just not this one.

Most of the Omega Seamaster 300 Replica dial text has been scrubbed as well, leaving only the brand wordmark and the name of the watch itself, producing a cleaner, more minimalist look that enables the timekeeping elements to remain the dial’s key focal point.

Hands-On with the Omega Replica Seamaster 300 Malachite and Lapis Lazuli

Every year Omega introduces certain models in platinum, sometimes gold, typically as a limited edition with fancy decoration or dials; last year was the turn of the platinum Swiss Omega Aqua Terra Fake Watches Worldtimer with an enamel dial. These top of the line watches are always launched quietly, perhaps because they are preposterously expensive. But they are always cool.

Dive watches with exotic dials are not new – Rolex used to make a Submariner Omega Replica Watches with a lapis lazuli dial – but they are rare. The Seamaster 300 with semi-precious stone dials is not a limited edition, but only a small number will be made.

Available in 18k yellow gold or platinum, the cases have the same dimensions as the pedestrian steel models, 41mm in diameter and 14.65mm high. Good enough for modern tastes, but still small enough to keep the retro feel of a proper remake.

The weight of the Omega Professional Replica watches, however, is surprising, given their size. With platinum almost three times as dense as stainless steel, the platinum model feels exceptionally hefty, probably weighing close to 500g or a pound. In terms of tangible quality, the watches live up to their cost.

The dials are undoubtedly the highlight. Either lapis lazuli or malachite, the dials have printed markings and slightly sunken hour markers, with the faux vintage Super-LumiNova painted into engraved recesses. Given the Omega Replica Watches Swiss Movement fragility of stone dials – the thin slice of stone has to be bonded to a metal back for stability – the engraved hour markers are a surprising touch.
