Hey all,

I don't normally post in the Omega area as I only own a couple (that sounds pretty awful doesn't it

)... Anyhow, I was at Basel on Saturday and took a look-see at some of the models. Some pics are below.

I'm "mikeinfrankfurt" on Instagram and uploaded lots of shots on there of everything...sometimes the resolution looks better on a phone screen.

All I can see is that Apollo 11 looks fantastic live...odd as I usually don't love the annual edition Speedmasters. Here goes it:

Awesome photos, thanks for posting!

This was a great year for Omega and Rolex. Awesome releases. From this great pictures and watches I would get #2. That is one of the most beautiful watches Omega ever released IMHO.

Thanks for these! The DeVille Tresor will most definitely be mine as soon as it releases. Just glorious.

Thanks for sharing.

I love the new Seamaster 300, absolute winner!

I love the DeVille Tresor.

I hope, for Omega's sake, that the Apollo 11 looks better in person because here it looks... unpleasant.

I was excited for the seamaster 300... alas I was disappointed. Its not bad but not the "home run" that it could have been.

But dang that Tresor is nice.

Nice pictures, thanks!

Agree, Tresor is a Master piece

the thing about the tresor is, i like it most because of the movement. the design, however, does not move me much. it looks dated (like an old man's watch), as opposed to a modern heritage piece. i guess it's a fine line between the two and intensely personal. compared to the new cellinis or a comparable JLC, the tresor does not move me at all.

for me, the lunar DSOTM and the RG seamaster are the two big omega winners from this year's basel.
