OR Factory Omega Seamaster 300 Green Dial Review: How is the Workmanship of this Replica?

Hello everyone, I’m CH Watch Industry, dedicated to sharing watch knowledge, comparing authentic and replica watches, and guiding you through the world of horology. Today, let’s talk about the OR Factory Seamaster 300 series, which has been around for a while and has received positive feedback for its quality. Compared to the VS Factory Seamaster 300, the OR Factory version shows notable improvements, especially in the movement. OR Factory has boldly declared it uses an integrated movement, although they’ve simplified the structure by removing an extra splint, resulting in a cleaner and more authentic look.

Now, OR Factory has introduced the latest model: the Omega Seamaster 300 Green Dial Replica. The big question is—does this new release live up to the high standards set by OR Factory in the past? Let’s dive into the details and see if this watch is worth adding to your collection.

How does the OR Factory Omega Seamaster 300 Green Dial Replica perform? Is it worth buying?

Released in 2022 with the product model 210.30.42.20.10.001, this watch features the eye-catching emerald green dial, affectionately called the “Green Seahorse.” With a 42mm diameter, the polished green ceramic dial is laser-engraved with a ripple pattern, adding a unique touch. The hollow hands and embossed markers are rhodium-plated and covered with Super-LumiNova luminous coating for easy readability, especially during dives. The bezel is also made of green ceramic with white enamel diving scales. While the base price is the same as the black dial version, the green dial variant tends to be priced higher on the secondary market. As always, blue is popular, but green seems to command a premium!

The OR Factory Omega Seamaster 300 Green Dial Replica, launched in mid-July 2022, is now available in limited quantities. The factory has carefully sourced the original for replication. The case is crafted from imported 316L stainless steel, with a 42mm size, mirroring the original in every detail, including the case, bezel, crown, waterproof ring, and bottom ring. Upon disassembly, it’s clear that there are virtually no differences compared to the authentic model. The case features a finely satin-brushed finish, with the bezel’s angular design highlighting the toughness of the metal and emphasizing a sporty, rugged style.

The OR Factory Omega Seamaster 300 Green Dial Replica features a unidirectional rotating bezel made of polished green ceramic and a matching green polished ceramic dial with a laser-engraved wavy pattern. After extensive adjustments, the color now matches the original, shifting between bright and dark green depending on the light. At different angles, the dial’s appearance can vary, providing a unique visual experience. The dial’s scale, hands, and texture are all meticulously crafted, as discussed in detail in our earlier review of the OR Factory Seamaster 300. The sapphire crystal is produced using the Werner method (also known as the flame-melting method), offering a Mohs hardness rating of 9 while ensuring excellent clarity and transparency at all times.

The OR Factory Omega Seamaster 300 Green Dial Replica features a transparent case back design, allowing you to observe the movement of the balance spring, enhancing its mechanical appeal. Having seen the original Omega Seamaster 300 black dial, I can confidently say that the movement simulation is impressive. The case back is fitted with a barcode, matching the original, and it includes a waterproof rubber gasket to prevent any water ingress. Powered by the 8800 integrated automatic winding movement, it winds in one direction, allowing the rotor to spin more smoothly. However, this also results in a slightly louder winding sound. The I-shaped shock absorber and the larger black balance wheel further enhance the movement’s simulation, surpassing the VS factory in terms of detail and quality.

The OR Factory Omega Seamaster 300 Green Dial Replica offers two strap options: a steel bracelet and a rubber strap. If you purchase the steel bracelet model, it does not include the rubber strap. The steel bracelet is meticulously hand-polished, with each link polished individually to achieve a finish that matches the original. The back of the bracelet features chamfered edges, allowing it to be interchanged with the original. The five-link design is crafted from high-quality steel, offering flexibility and a smooth feel. The buckle is a double-button safety folding clasp, identical to the original, with an extendable mechanism that allows for easy length adjustments, providing a seamless experience similar to the authentic watch.

The green fluororubber strap is smooth, durable, and slightly heavier than the steel bracelet. It features lugs compatible with the steel strap and an integrated rubber label, which includes an embossed model number for added authenticity. The strap is finished with a polished pin buckle. Both the strap and buckle are carefully crafted, making it difficult to distinguish the replica from the original.

Summary: OR Factory not only perfected the mold for the green dial of the Omega Seamaster 300 but also upgraded the movement, integrating it into a single unit, making the watch exceptional both in appearance and functionality. This replica provides a genuine feel without the high cost, offering an affordable way to enjoy the essence of the original. When wearing this watch, there’s no need to worry about it being recognized as a replica. It’s a highly valuable timepiece that captures the spirit of the original watch while being stress-free to wear. Watch enthusiasts can purchase with confidence. Thank you for reading!
