New Seamaster bracelet?

We have seen leaks of the new bracelet for the SMP 300. We have seen leaks of the new bracelet for the Speedmaster Professionals.

Who thinks the Seamaster 300M line will be getting the tapered treatment? Would you like that? I certainly would.

Apologies if this has been discussed elsewhere.

The Seamaster bracelet certainly looks tapered.

Are you referring to 300M heritage edition (Seen in above pics?) then yes, its quite obvious from those that the new bracelet will be tapered.

If you are referring to 300M line including the Diver 300 then no, Diver 300M is quite unique and has now become a characteristic of the watch having been around for almost 3 decades now and has remained largely unchanged.

That and HEV will never go away. Omega are holding true to the signature look of the watch and while it will go through tweaks, it will most likely never be tapered.

Yes I’m asking if the modern diver 300m (ceramic dial, laser ablation waves) will get a tapered bracelet.
The speedy has had a straight bracelet for years and years too, and they are changing that. So I don’t think Omega is too bound by the past. And the Diver 300M is a modern watch that they play with a lot.

I agree the HEV is here to stay, and I for one am glad. I like the conical version on the latest generation, though Mactruck’s looks great (love the brushed links btw).

I don't think the Diver Pro is getting a tapered bracelet.

After seeing the press release photos today I’m now even more keen for that bracelet and clasp on the modern Seamaster (with micro adjust of course). A guy can dream I suppose
