This is Venus (or Jupiter if it has the red storm in the top right, but I don’t see it).

I don’t like the colour scheme here, but I am hoping one of the 10 watches will look awesome.

Just know I am going to be tempted to buy all of these

I do not want any watch made of plastic OR that has the word SWATCH written on it. Great way to cheapen the Omega brand if it comes to this. Hoping it won't.

Looks like 40mm to me, not 42mm for sure.

Great way to cheapen an icon.

Eapfep · 24 March 2022, 03:20 AM

I feel like the immediate gut reaction as watch enthusiasts is one of concern, especially since it says Omega on the dial + has the same colour schemes as real production watches. Personally, I think this is a great long-term play that has the potential to introduce millions more young consumers to the Omega brand. I don't believe (most) people will be running around with these on their wrist as if it's the "real deal" - especially not with all these fun colorways (truthfully it's not like Omega would have made a LE with a mint blue case anyways).

Here's hoping it doesn't get completely snatched up by resellers though...

The "Moonwatch" and Mission to Mars are not bad at all... I will try to get both - price is ok.

p.s. I'll walk into Swatch wearing this one...

alllexandru · 24 March 2022, 03:55 AM

Chances of getting this are slim and none. I really like a few of these. Would have bought several.

Some of these are pretty cool.

SPMN · 24 March 2022, 04:29 AM

These look like a lot of fun! Completely out of left-field, but I'm digging it.

Oh, please, please, please tell me this is a joke and these images are a massive con. Just when Omega was trying to present as a serious alternative to Rolex. I want to puke.

alllexandru · 24 March 2022, 05:29 AM

And there is this big box…

Texans93 · 24 March 2022, 05:38 AM

So, if given the opportunity and you could only pick two which would you select?

For me it would be these:

Although I sort of think it's a silly idea, I would like to at least get the Black and Grey version.

I can understand the salt from some omega collector. But personally I love this. This will be probably be scalped real bad. I can already see people trying to sell this for $500+

rmwill · 24 March 2022, 06:18 AM

Sadly its not. My last Omega is now on C24. I don't want a watch from a brand that created a homage of its only remaining icon. Rolex homages, fake patina, endless special/limited editions were bad enough.
