As far as I know, Patek, Vacheron, Audemars all use 316 Steel in their SS models....

I'm guessing you place Rolex ahead of these houses now?
You forgot to mention its actually about a grand cheaper than the SubC no date and they are in fact NOT the same price.

But maybe you were just trying not to rub it in.

At the end of the day you either like it or you don't. It's a personal preference and matter of taste but to argue Omega did not pack a lot of punch into this offering just seems silly.
