Thinking about the new Globemaster Annual Calendar

I was browsing the Omega site last night when I came across this. Wow, although I don’t care for it as much in the other colors, I have to say it really speaks to me in black. It’s been awhile since I looked at an Omega but this really speaks to me. What are your opinions of this piece?

It's a beauty. I love the script for the months.

FYI, not the black dial version but I saw one of these on DavidSW's site the other day.

Elegant, easy to read, and not 'in your face' design. Classic.

I agree - I’m wondering if it will also be offered on a bracelet.

I personally love it.

Much preferred over the standard Globemaster line, which I still like.

I am definitely thinking about adding this one at some point next year.

That's a stunner. I'm a big fan of the Annual Calendar complication. If my watch is going to track the date for me, then I appreciate the watch being "smart" enough to do it accurately

Where do you think this should settle at? I think MSRP is reasonable for the level of tech they are offering, but with all Omegas I would expect it to soften 30% or so.

Ouch! That seems to be the case with many Omegas, even the Aqua Terra as a bit of girth. Wish they’d work on that.
