I figured it was about time someone shared some decent shots of this new beauty. 42mm black ceramic bezel with orange numeral model # 232.30.42.21.01.003 all the way...

The clasp does look stupid as sh*t now, but at least they finally transitioned to screwed links.

Gharddog03 · 12 January 2012, 04:57 PM

Awesome watch. Excellent pics. Thanks for sharing.

gregvisser · 12 January 2012, 05:50 PM

Great pics!

Thanks

Thats a beauty. Is the PO with the orange markers available in the 45.5?

dddrees · 12 January 2012, 09:18 PM

Nice looking watch, Congrats.

zeroshiki · 12 January 2012, 10:24 PM

do you get a loupe stamped with seamaster/planet ocean.. i read it somewhere omega supply their new planet ocean with loupes for owners to admire the beautiful movement.. :D

WyoWatch · 13 January 2012, 01:05 AM

Very nice watch! If I didn't already own a SubC, that would be the one I would buy. Congrats!

RedBaronF2001 · 13 January 2012, 01:12 AM

Nice!

TB72 · 13 January 2012, 03:49 AM

Very smart indeed. Quality photos. Congratulations.

00pumpkin · 13 January 2012, 03:54 AM

Very nice! I had the old model in that same scheme.

I saw that same one the other day and love the new bezel/movement. They had a significant jump in price through. I think the new ones are a few thousand more than the one I used to have.

Ageing Orphan · 13 January 2012, 04:02 AM

Nice shots! This is the model I'm saving for next. Can't decide on the 42mm or the 45.5mm. I'll try both on when I have the money at my AD's. Looking forward to the day!!

This model will retail a bit over $6K pre-tax. Depending on where you buy from you should be able to shave at least 10% off in discounts.

bassplayrr · 14 January 2012, 02:39 AM

The applied orange numbers are a nice detail and better IMHO than the old painted markers. I wish the numbers 6 and 9 were still 'open' though.

Great watch.

psv · 14 January 2012, 02:53 AM

It is a very sold and nice piece. Congrats on the new Omega.

I wish they've made it a bit less thick, but I guess that is what you get with the Calibre 8500 and a 60 hrs power reserve.

10:10:31 28 · 14 January 2012, 05:10 AM

Any idea what the weight of this watch is?

The Joker · 14 January 2012, 08:12 AM

That is a hot watch.

Definitely is.............232.30.46.21.01.003 is the reference number

kmleffler · 15 January 2012, 03:02 AM

I don't know what the weight of the 42mm PO with 8500 movement is, but I believe the 45.5mm version weighs in at around 250 grams with the metal bracelet. I tried it on at the boutique in NYC and it is heavy and thick, but it did not feel uncomfortable on my wrist.

lindstd · 15 January 2012, 04:35 AM

Can anyone tell me if the color of the bezel? Is it a matte or shiny black or grey? Does the bezel match the dial or is it a little different. Beautiful watch! Very nice..

btinl · 15 January 2012, 05:30 AM

Very nice. I wonder if the forum favorite AD has gotten any of these yet.

Matte black, looks like a dark grey in some lights. A very good match for the dial

SynMike · 15 January 2012, 12:05 PM

Wow. There are some really beautiful shots there.

dooder202 · 27 January 2012, 04:54 AM

Wow, gorgeous piece!

rob541 · 27 January 2012, 05:07 AM

These are some fantastic shots. One thing I love about the Omegas is that the sapphire looks non-existent. My GMTII-C was all about the glare and the gloos all reflecting off of each other. Drove me crazy.

My girlfriend said "it looks like I can touch the hands" - I love a good dose of AR.

Keep posting shots - I won't mind.
