    Speedmaster with pulsometer, limited to 2998 watches. Apologies if this has already been posted, but I haven't seen discussed so far

    Damn, now that's a watch I would love to own. Gorgeous execution of a Panda dial.

    So do we get to put our names down to reserve a piece similar to the Speedy Tuesday in July as said by the guy in the video?

    Yep, everyone has their own preferences. I personally like the red text and the red chrono hand and I'd wear a black panda more often than a blue one.

    No it’s not yet there. They only have dark side of the moon 2018 apart from the Seamaster series watches. I visited their website an hour ago.

    This piece is looking pretty sharp. However, I am a bit bummed there is no steel bracelet with the watch. First impression is that this may be a contender for a personal incoming this year. Really dig the panda dial.

    Seems like they took extra stock of the ck2998 blue, replaced the dial and strap. Sell it again two years later.
    The box seems the same too.

    Daytona 62xx panda, sure.

    Paul Newman, nope.

    Missing any hint of art deco style fonts...

    Sure, and why not? Tons of watch geeks eating out of their hands, looking for something to plunk down money on...

    Wow that's, erm.... not quite attractive, is it?

    Though I will say that I was thoroughly bored by the blue panda CK2998 LE from 2015, and found it far more attractive on the wrist when I had a chance to try it on.

    i always overlooked the old ck2998 because of the blue. Like this one a lot more but also wish it came on a bracelet

    Yeah, not feeling it. It just looks ... off. And the pulsation bezel does zero for me. Not complaining, as for once there's a CK-style Speedmaster that doesn't tempt me to buy it. My wallet thanks Omega.
