Good catch. The descriptions must be a typo then. Or maybe the deployant clasps weren't ready for the pictures?

If you follow the DSOTM the prices both new and used are very soft. With the introduction of 5 new models the prices will fall even more. I will get the DSOTM or the GSOTM but at no where near retail. But I believe when I buy it I will own it because a trade or sell will be ugly.

Went in to buy the new Seamaster 300 last week and ended up talking myself into the GSOTM
It fit the bill for a dressy watch with sport character, croc strap, great movement, and lots of cool factor I don't see these new DSOTM taking away from how I feel about the GSOTM in looks or value. In fact, I think they are in a totally different category. |

Yes the dsotm is the original and best looking imho. I actually prefer mine more now and can't wait to get that leather band.

I think this is why Omega will never really be able to compete with Rolex. They make a great watches, but they dilute their brand by churning out endless variants and special editions. |

I was seriously thinking of buying another Omega but I am afraid to see another boatload of the same model with different variations Think I will buy a Rolex instead.....

They all look awful, as do the Grey side one's.
The two-register dial is completely wrong for the Speedmaster and any version of it looks terrible. |

Ummm.....you guys act so surprised.Im not, not at all surprised.
That's what Omeeegah does, spin,spin,spin.......create more unimaginative junk,piggybacking on popular movies and actual human achievements. Whats next? Mars inspired red ceramic?Hmmm probably ![]()

Why is the ceramic lineup crazy?
Aren't there 50+ Speedmaster Moonwatches that only differ in dials? |
