I am biased but the newer Seamaster is more classical looking Omega due to its strong ties to the SM300
Read my review...
http://www.interaxia.com/horology/seamaster/
It has a direct link to the classic SM300 and to the Speedmaster Pro... The design of the Seamaster 300 is what inspired the Speedmaster. For 1/2 a decade, the Speedy was classified as another model in the seamaster line.
Like I said in my review, this watch is more of a real James Bond watch because:
1. The SM 300s were actually issued to the British Royal Navy
2. James Bond , although fictional, comes from a Royal Navy background.
Hence, theoretically, during Connery's time, he should have been issued a Seamaster 300.
The Bond Seamaster is an envolution of the Seamaster in the 80s which were dead-on copies of the Rolex Submariner-- dot markers, mercedes hands, and cyclop magnifier. The new Seamaster doesn't have any of those pretenses or luggage from a collector point-of-view.
