May need one of these. Soon....

Post by ericf4 » Sun Dec 16, 2018 8:40 am

After seeing Mike post his, I am getting bitten by these new versions. I may need to grab either the black or the silver and blue. Damn these are cool. Either way would be on bracelet.

I want the two-tone. I’m not sure I’m willing to sacrifice what I’d need to in order to get one.

I think the 2 tone are like 2x the price of steel aren't they? Thought I saw that on Omega site. Like 4800 versus $9800. Seems strange that there is such a premium as the 2 tone isn't like solid gold or anything. Frankly the steel versions seem a total bargain compared to competing watches like the submariner etc. Amazing tech built in at like half the price.

The TT on bracelet price is stupid. I want to wear it on a NATO, so I’d get it in rubber. It is about $3k less.
Probably not going to happen for a while, anyway.

I think they look great but need to see one in person. Wave dial is cool.

I still want the sword hands with full lume though.

almost. the dial just looks to flashy. i can deal with a flashy bezel insert but combined with the dial it just looked way to the top.

It’s growing on me too. More so with a British accent. It definitely looks better in real photos than it did in initial press shots.

I’ve been contemplating the blue dial on bracelet.

I’m hoping for a modern version of the 2254 with sword hands. I think we’ll see it this year or next, but that’s just a feeling. If it happens; slap me and take my money.

It looks way better in person than the pics imo. The waves on the dial are super emphasized in the pics for some reason. Not so in real life.

Reminds of the Deepsea in that respect. The rehaut engraving is much more pronounced in photos, but a non issue in person.

I was so close to just buying the black version when I tried it on but pulled back. I need to see the blue first just in case. I'll check Pat's out soon I'm sure.
