路Does anyone think the price of the current SMP may increase on the pre-owned market?

路Lately on this and other forums I have noticed that members will look up my posts and reference them. In most forums you can actually see who has checked your profile recently as well. If you did look most of my contributions are about hands on smp models.

路the bracelet is very toolish
It's a revamp / reuse of the old Bond style bracelets from the SMPs of the 80's and 90's. 馃憤

路Omg, the new hours hand is awful 馃ぎ
Really narrow at the base and wide at the end.
Am I the only one who noticed?!

路Did anyone notice the Sedna gold version is a no date? Didn鈥檛 see anyone comment on it. If the no date was in the blue version it would look fantastic.

路This rendition reminds me of my experience of trying "Cajun" food at a restaurant after moving from New Orleans to Stockholm, Sweden. It had the right name (Gumbo), it looked like gumbo, but it did not taste like gumbo. I did not like it, but everyone else who had never had "real gumbo" thought it was great.
I think it is a great looking watch, but only if you allow it to stand alone and not compare it to previous models, especially the 2254 and 2531. If one loves sword hands then they should just buy a used 2254 or other sword hands model and wear it and love it. If I want real gumbo, I order it when I go back to New Orleans.
The problem I have now is... do I spend roughly $2,000 on a used 2531 or buy a grey market new seamaster ceramic for $2700? I wanted the new watch to solve this dilemma for me, but it has not. Wave dial and a classic or more bang for the buck.

路I still don鈥檛 understand why omega didn鈥檛 put an applied logo on this. I didn鈥檛 notice that it didn鈥檛 have it at first, but now it just sours it for me every time I look at it. And the way the bracelet connects to the Watch should have been implemented better in my opinion.

Wow I missed that. Looks clean.

I totally agree that it is a step back. They fix it with the next bond limited edition though 馃槜

路I鈥檓 surprised no one has commented yet on the bigger and uglier helium escape valve.
LOL, that's useful.

路If the intention of the new shape of the helium valve is to up the watch' diver's credentials, how about ditching the scalloped bezel? That thing is downright impossible to turn when wet or when wearing gloves. Looks great though 馃槈

路Much as I like the Seiko 5, it's a Diver in name only.
I don鈥檛 dive, and anyone I know who does has a superior dive computer they rely on much more than any watch.
Are you planning to use this watch for diving? Won鈥檛 the laser etched waves make reading the dial even more difficult as you approach 300m underwater?

路Maxi dials are amazing. I鈥檓 actually pretty happy with these. Not crazy about the exhibition caseback, but looking forward to checking them out in person in a few hours.
