And if they do the lume like the Ploprof, this maybe a DSSD killer !
The He valve is still gimicky, wishd theyd lose that knob twisty thingy !

Stunning looking watch.

JJ Irani · 7 October 2009, 12:38 PM

Beautiful watch, but don't like those arrow-heads.

Personally I like the hands, true to it's heritage and gives it a distinct "Omega" look
Very nice!

Nice but I'll stick with my GMT ceramic

cody p · 7 October 2009, 12:57 PM

omega is really stepping it up - those are lovely offerings.

AIKO · 7 October 2009, 01:06 PM

Sharp but I will take a Rolex movement any day.

deserted · 7 October 2009, 01:07 PM

Wow that's stunning.......UMMMMMMM

dalip · 7 October 2009, 01:08 PM

Yup... But Rolex does it for me.

bodybump · 7 October 2009, 01:08 PM

love that omega seamaster..really looks awesome!!

cody p · 7 October 2009, 01:18 PM

SAV (service apres-vente). it's still, in my opinion, omega's achille's heel. hayek's watch making school in new jersey is a step in the right direction, but rolex has the upper hand (big time) in north america.

Rebel1 · 7 October 2009, 01:29 PM

Beautiful, too bad they aren't Rolexes :)

Bisquitlips · 7 October 2009, 01:40 PM

I love this timepiece.

Thanks for posting this!!

Speed · 7 October 2009, 01:43 PM

So when does that new Seamaster come out? Don't see it on the Omega site?

sakuraba · 7 October 2009, 02:02 PM

Beautiful! But really not enough to sway me from Rolex

Ultraman · 7 October 2009, 02:46 PM

Apparently, it's available in 2010 approx $US6,800 smackaroos..

I reckon it's look awesome!

Ultraman · 7 October 2009, 02:52 PM

Model number: 2311.044.500.6001 and Limited to only 1948 pieces!

steelers · 7 October 2009, 03:11 PM

nice looking omega's!

galloman · 7 October 2009, 02:25 PM

That PO looks really sharp, I think

USCpaneristi · 7 October 2009, 02:29 PM

Looks cool! However, I believe the proper technical term is not ceramic... it's "LiquidMetal"

whatever that means... Still, a very cool watch. My friend has the regular version, and every time I see it it's VERY tempting... arrow hands and all.

Rolex was not the first manufacturer to release watches with ceramic bezels; Hublot's Big Bang offered it in 2005, two years before the GMT IIc came out, and Rado has been doing ceramic watches for years.

As to the lineage of the watch, the broad arrow hands date to the 1950s; here's a pic of a vintage Speedy with the hands.

presario · 7 October 2009, 02:59 PM

It's a mix of ceramic and liquidmetal, which is poured into the grooves of the bezel. For that price, wish they put the new in-house 8500 movement, but it will have the regular 2500c movement. Looks great!

Though I am not privy to their strategic corporate information I think Mr. Hayek and the SWATCH group are targeting ROLEX. The new OMEGA cal. 8500-8600, the "new" Ploprof, the AT and the HV and HVAC all point to OMEGA taking the gloves off. I don't think ROLEX will be seriously hurt, but I do believe some of the smaller players had better watch out when these two titans struggle.

Good observation STEELINOX.

the usual marketing pic. Let's wait for the real deal...

ProPlof = True Tool Watch

This is 1 Seriously Bad Ass piece

Looks simply not fantastic on Nancy's wrist though - suits an uglier arm

nepod90 · 8 October 2009, 12:30 AM

Nice looking watch. Lume is Killer but not a fan of that bracelet.

Agree.

Bracelet not matching with the overall outlook of the watch.
