Put lume on the bezel of all SM300M.

Get rid of the HE valve.

1) Make the Seamaster 300M and PO cases thinner!!

2) Taper the 300M bracelet.

3) I don’t hate the HE valve, but I wouldn’t mind them removing it from the 300M.

4) Reissue the Peter Blake Seamaster 2254.50 with the sword hands and a thinner case.

5) Make the entire bezel lumed for all of the divers.

Hopefully some from Omega is reading this. By the way, are there any good primarily Omega blogs or websites?

Thanks, I'll check it out

Have quickly scanned the posts in this thread such that there is certainly several common themes. Without attempting to avoid duplication here is what I also think:

1. Reduce the models on their web site and remove or separate models no longer being produced.

2. Pull AT, Railmaster, Planet Ocean and PloProf from the Seamaster line. Let them stand on their own. It's clear what a PO is and what the Railmaster is without calling them Seamaster.

3. Bring all watches to master chronometer status.

4. For cases greater than 15mm thick reduce by 2mm. For 15mm and less 1mm thinner.

5. For watches over 9k usd msrp make the dial furniture gold.

6. Ditch that stupid looking photo currently on their website of the actor. If I was this guy's agent and I saw that photo I'd hit the roof. All photos of spokespersons should be pleasant and not look like they are posing while sitting on a nail (unless they are). For an example of how it's done:

7. Raise the price of the Seamaster Diver 300m by $1k and give us a bracelet worthy of the watch.

8. Apply the same effort that has been applied to the movements to the bracelets. For the 8k and up models the bracelets are good and don't really have any complaints but I'd like just another notch more attention to detail is all.

The biggest one for me is #4. I think Omega is working on that now with the 3861 Speedmaster being .5mm thinner and the new Seamaster Co-Axial being released also being thinned out.

Produce for widespread sale: the 2010 Vancouver Games limited edition of the Seamaster with maple leaf red bezel. I think its the most beautiful smashing of the Seamaster line.

I have few complaints with Omega's current offerings. My only real request would be for them to release versions of the ceramic cased Speedmasters (the various SOTM references) and the ceramic cased Seamaster 300Ms in a 40-42mm case size. I'd love to add both a DSOTM and ceramic/titanium Seamaster to my collection, but my chicken wrists can't handle 44mm cases.

... release the seamaster 300 ceramic black black in 40mm

I also wish they could reduce the box size in some of the model and maybe make a thinner watches ...

Completely agree, the dial design of the PO is a total deal breaker. That and its generally bulky design.

Things I wish omega would do:

1. Consolidate offerings into more refined flagship product lines with fewer "limited editions"
2. Create thinner case designs
3. Generally improve the wear and comfort of bracelets
4. Refine and incorporate microadjust on all offerings
5. Focus on evolving the brand into a more classy brand, touch up products so they look a little less juvenile
