I agree it's a little much.
I know Swatch wants us all to buy in Omega=Rolex. But it's just not.
I tried to think a Miata was a 911, I even had a few beers and squinted really really hard, nope still a Miata

I think $6600 is a fair deal when you factor in the 25% discount. There a very few comparable watches with a street price of $4,900.

Well sure, if we base it like that. Same with PO 8500 - it's a great 3900$ watch.

I agree with you. Most of the standard Omega watches are nice and a good deal after discounts. I don't take their MSRP seriously beyond using it to calculate .75*msrp.

I really like the overall look but the lugs seem a bit long to me. Overall pretty sharp!

Matt, was that (PCL) taken from the original vintage?
Who cares, I just don't like them. :snooty:
This^

IMHO the bracelet detracts heavily from the watch. A bracelet modeled after the older seamaster ones like this Polprof would look way better.
