I don't know why but I hate those skeleton hands and the triangle minute that most of the rest of them have.
I dislike the SeaMaster PO hands. They block too much on the dial IMO.

I love everything about the Planet Ocean, actually...well, the three dial model; the new one looks unbalanced. As for the SM300, the only think I don't like about it is the current bracelet. And I'm not in love with the wave dials.
I'm not a fan of the Speedmaster bracelet on the Speedmaster, but it looks decent on the Seamaster.
But I generally prefer simpler bracelets. That's why I have an 1171 on my Speedmaster and wish my MM300's bracelet were plainer.
What I really want is a ceramic, no wave SMP with the old Speedmaster-style bracelet.

I'm kind of opposite on this. I like the waves, it is a higher end look verses the sedate PO dial (except the blue liguid metal. The older bracelet was also far more comfortable than the newer one. Speedy's have less weight to manage than divers so it was better suited. I also like that these have a solid case back which I'll never understand putting a display back on a diver(PO). The only weak point for me on these are the bezel insert. Mine had to be replace annually...now solved with ceramic.

The more I see that, the more I like it.
Probably the best 'speedo' watch I've seen.

Is this an original design by Steinhart? What a looker!

Not bad at all, although the movement looks tiny through the spy-hole.
