The prices are as follows:

Planet Ocean with bracelet (steel): 4600 € $6,473.15 USD

Planet Ocean with rubber-strap (steel): 4500€ $6,332.43 USD

Planet Ocean Chronograph (steel): 6100 € $8,584.10 USD

These prices are only for the orange and the black versions. The blue version is only made in titanium and costs a whole lot more:

Ti Planet Ocean: 6400 € $9,007.69 USD

Ti Planet Ocean Chronograph: I could not get the exact price but it should cost something like 7800 € $10,978.12 USD

GTFOH!!! I knew they were raising prices, but holy shit!

Damn those are steeeeeep
quickly moving out of the comfort range of some buyers. or maybe that's the idea - to get a "new kind" of buyer?!?
Sounds like that want to move up a notch on the WIS ladder, I have no problem with that, good for Omega
but it kinda leaves behind the middle class guy with kids in private school who wants entry or even mid-level luxury watch

probably will bring up prices on the used market, too. bad for buyers but good for sellers/flippers.

Welcome to the world of Omega Boutique...

The days of buying new Omega's at 20-25% are over...

Could really boost the pre-owned market....Make older PO's, Seamasters
and Speedies even harder to find...

Omega = the new Rolex

I'm glad I have what I have.

Ouchy. $8500 is not the $7700 previously reported for the POC.

[Zidane]

You won't see my happy azz purchasing any new Omegas at those prices.

[dukerules]

Ouch is right. This is Rolex and IWC territory.

[andrema]

Look at the pricing for bracelet vs rubber...that is crazy. Who in the hell would order one on rubber at that price?


I am very happy to have my old, crappy versions ....thank you very much!

[moishlashen]

WOW. I echo John and Mark's comments-glad I have what I have. It will be interesting to see this play out-especially the PO vs Rollie sub.

I'm glad I have what I have.

[jimyritz]

Pre-owned PO's, etc are going to go through the roof....

May re-think selling my Omega....
======================================

If Omega truly puts an in-house in the PO and charges $6500 USD
how is that different than Breitling charging 7K for the B01?

I am not saying that either is Rolex but the new Sub C's are 7K+


Just saying...

Yeah, I love the new versions, but at that price point there are LOTS of options.

[tmw]

Boutiques, higher prices...rolex range. No suprise that they upscaled.

And no suprise, considering the 8500 Ploprof came out at 9k (I am sure that there has been a price increase since then).

I am glad that I grabbed all the omegas when I wanted them used...and may have to grab an orange po now...

But I gotta say, the new pieces are nice....and LM rocks...

But some non WISs will be debating the POs vs the Sub Cs...and may feel the POs are a "buy"

I'm not spending that kind of coin on an Omega, when there are so many other options out there in that range. With these new prices I gotta go with Heather and say "FOMEGA".
