Anyone own one of these 300M/Chrono/GMT's?

Stumbled across this on the Omega site. Never seen one of these before. Just curious if anyone has one. Omega really stacked everything into this watch. Land/Air/Sea all-in-one. I guess if you really just want ONE sport watch this would be one to consider. Wild how they packed everything into this watch.

Haha, it’s like someone told a kid to “pick what you want” in a candy shop.

Talk about a “one watch only” collection piece.

What’s the use of the left sub-dial? Measure how co-axial it is?

I think they literally ran out of space on the dial to put the specs so they said, "Hey why don't we just write them on the 60 second subdial? Sold!"

Truly was designed by a kid in a candy store 😂

They should just have printed "See Other Side" there instead.

Is this is the current line-up? I thought the Seamasters had the hour hand change from straight to more swordlike in 2018 or so.
Omega does keep older models on their website.

I think it was introduced in 2014. It's on their website now but not available for purchase so maybe it was discontinued?

If you want to see it in action I found one that Tim reviewed on Watchbox. Man that thing is huge.

Besides being a watch, you can also use it as a hammer and if needed as a self defense weapon (but only if you really need it).

I like it. All it needs is a laser and it should be on Bond’s wrist.

All it's missing is a power reserve.

Why not heap a Moonphase on the pile too? That and the previously mentioned laser.

Needs more. Not busy enough. They really should have added Power Reserve, Month & Day, and an Alarm complication. Watch is too plain for my liking.

/Sarcasm

Cool watch, not for me though.
