I can’t get excited about anything released this year.

Love the look; wish it was offered in a thinner case.

^^^ Correction, I didn't realize that they had released the stainless steel De Ville Tresor in a white dial, I thought it was only available with a textured blue dial. The white dial I like. I liked the watch a lot when they released it in 2014 but it was only available in white gold at that time. Probably too dressy for most here, but it's a really classic looking watch and I think it can be dressed up or down.

I personally think that, despite all of the LEs and anniversary models, the standard Speedmaster Pro is the one to get. But I am disappointed that no 2254.50 replacement was released.

I’m disappointed too.
I also think both Omega and Rolex are missing out by not offering a basic, vintage style diver.

That’s a great looking, classic dress watch. I wish I had a need for one.

From a sales standpoint, I can’t see a 2254 replacement coming out for a few years. They need to milk the new Bond SMP for at least a couple years.

Omega does offer one, just not the one we want.

Actually, thank Andrew; he embedded them in the posts.
I’ll have to study the how-to video he sent me.

I don't like glass backs anyway, but the blue chrono' looks quite ridiculous with the ceramic pushers.

I like it, too; makes me feel better about placing an order for the Sedna Seamaster.
