Omega to re-release the Speedmaster MK2 in 2014
Re: Omega to re-release the Speedmaster MK2 in 2014
Nicest new release from Omega for some time, which is a shame really as with most "cover versions" the original is the one to have.
It will be interesting to see if prices for the originals are impacted by this.

I want to like it, but just can't seem to bring myself to do it.
The date seems wrong, the subdials are too pronounced and the colours just a little too bold.
It will be interesting to see how they sell.

I'd expect not well, same with the Bullhead, but who knowsed335d wrote: It will be interesting to see how they sell.

Probably my favorite Omega dial. Guessing the thickness is like a tank though just like the other newer coax Chronographs.

Really? The Bullhead is weird. These are just awesome.JP Chestnut wrote:I'd expect not well, same with the Bullhead, but who knowsed335d wrote: It will be interesting to see how they sell.

DWC really does have a bunch of whiners. How can anyone not like this re-issue? It's gorgeous! Oh! But it's pricey. So is a Ferrari. Get over it. It's awesome and it's distinctly Omega.

Resistance is the indicator of progress.

they all look fantastic, I just hope they put a stronger clasp on it.
