Beautiful. Whether you hate it or love it, Omega has developed its own unique diver look and stuck with it despite the criticism, which I think is great.

I dont mind the look of it but having to carry the manual around would be a no go. So many functions and button presses, I would never remember most of them. But, as I said, it looks good.

I get it and it will appeal to a few. Not for me, for so many reasons.

I, too, applaud the attempt to do something different.

But the best photo is the one at night.

Looks like a fun watch for the person who has it all to add to their collection of they desire. An acquired taste, but very sporty and functional.

The lume shot looks okay.

Not so great when you can see it properly.

There will be people who love and enjoy this watch and that’s all that matters.

That said, aesthetics aside…

47mm and a paltry 50 meters of resistance for a watch that is built for life on the sea are two (of many) reasons I would never personally be interested in this watch.

A paltry 50 meters is plenty unless one loses it and it drops to the depths, and then does it even matter? Omega's watches are actually tested to the WR ratings. 50 meters is 164 feet!! That is plenty for some yachting/sailing with a risk of some splashing. It's plenty for swimming. It's even plenty for diving. Deep diving? No.

I agree with you on the 47mm. No thanks.

A niche purchase for sure, but cool nonetheless
