Omega De Ville X2 Small Seconds

Just noticed this on the Omega site, not sure how new it is though. What do you guys think? I normally don't like square watches, but this one I don't mind. It almost reminds me of a Cartier Santos.

Yes, that's something that I found weird. There's also a date version that uses romans and numbers to show the date, which is a bit iffy.

I'm a big fan of the small seconds sub-dial complication on any watch But, I've never been a fan of the rectangle case. It's a great looking watch, just not for me
