I like the non-ferrous movement, still don't like the modern arrow hand. JMHO

Looks like Omega is pulling out all the stops. I figured anti-magnetic would be included.

IMO it is old with the new which like :) I really look forward to seeing the end result of this piece !
That pic doesn't look so hot to me.

Yup, count me out. Can't do those odd asymmetrical hands, it's an eye sore for me. Oh well, makes an 114060 more appealing.

Omega is hilarious, 6 versions at once. Hopefully one is good enough.

To me this would have been perfect without the fake patina. Does anyone know what's the case size?

I love it. The only thing that concerns me is the MSRP.

It is quite nice in every way except the hands for me, though I understand why they did it. Omega keeps pushing forward, but I have to say the new SD4000Ceramic has me pretty riled up.

41mm. Great stuff.

http://www.omegawatches.com/planet-o...master-coaxial

This one would have got so much more attention if Rolex hadn't released a new Sea-Dweller 4000.

November availability? Come on!

why is basically the entire bracelet polished?

man, that was huge build up for a historic/modern mishmash of a piece.

Me too. The case looks ever so slightly less fat than the Sub - I want one. This Omega turned out nice too, but with a new SD4000 I'm not a buyer.

The fake patina bugs me. Why does everyone from Bell and Ross to Tudor insist this looks good?

Any idea of the price?

That and the 6 different models. Someone more eloquent than I said of Omega: "They just throw every idea against the wall and see what sticks." Seems to me like they could cut out 60% of the models in the Seamaster line and not see a big drop in sales - maybe even develop a cohesive aesthetic like Rolex has done.

They almost had me on this one. Love that dial. I could live with that fake patina but the minute hand is so "off".
