Yessss.

And a green dial for the 5980/1R. That's what you call life.

I don't really care as I am not gonna get a 5726 but I think this one looks better than all the other metals and dials out there.

I'd want them to make a blue 5711/1J. Would be a clear winner w lots of revenue potential in my book!

Good looking watch. I’m not a buyer as to flashy but it would sell out and fit nicely in product line up.

No, I’d prefer the range was not watered down with tons of options for the same reference. Sometimes too much choice can be a bad thing for both new and pre-owned, just keep it simple.

Just imagine if the Submariner had as many current variants as the Omega Seamaster, would the base SS black model be so hot now, same goes for the 5711.

I prefer white metal with blue dial;
Yellow gold with green dial; and
Rose gold with brown dial.

And all the color combi of the RM bonbon.

if you count all the sub variants, all the YM variants, all the sea dwellers and deep seas its got to be fairly close. Omega just puts all the sea watches in the same category. In any case its closer than just looking at subs and comparing it to all seamasters.

Fair comment. Before skydweller, I always thought the professional line consists of Daytona and Sub variants (incl GMT) only.

If they like money they might as well make a shit ton of PM nautilus. What blows my mind is the lack of WG on bracelet offerings.

I’m going to go look at me some bon bond lol. I have an appointment with the manager today lol at one of the stores. Offered a 11-01 Mancini but we’ll see what they have. I’m not fully committed yet.

A green dial goal nautilus would be too much rolex for me

Wow - congrats in advance! You will like those bonbon for sure. I have to google the Mancini, it looks very sophisticated but I think I still prefer the bonbon.

No congrats. I’m thinking I’m not buying a Mancini. I want a 11-03...people tell me the 67-02 are nice, 55 and 35’s are all nice, maybe a 30

Apologies man, can't help much with RM because not too familiar.. though I really like those skeleton, slim and colorful ones. Might be quite hard to get I think.
