Togri v. 2.0

This is the best photo of that watch I have seen. In all other images it looks a little “meh” but in this the green looks interesting.

Isn't this a render? It just looks off. Maybe it was added on top of the background?

I like it!!

The video says the bracelet tapers, but I've seen comments saying it doesn't? Does anyone know for sure if it tapers down to 18mm now?

It's very nice. I wonder if all the haters of the "Hulk" will love this one. Because...not Rolex!

But, on it's own merit, I like it!!

when I look at Alexander’s video and renders I do not think they changed the bracelet & tapered it, unfortunately can’t find reliable info anywhere

The only change on this model is the color of the dial and bezel. Don't look for other changes.

Apparently, it tapers from a 20mm to 18mm near the clasp. I’m still waiting for someone who has seen it in the flesh to confirm whether or not this is true.

Online reviews claim there is taper.

Unless Omega made redesign of the bracelet (which I highly doubt) there is absolutely NO taper.

Here my SMP bracelet measured right now at lugs & clasp.

The watchadvisor vid claiming there is taper is absolutely false. A 2mm taper is quite obvious as it needs to happen across approximately the first 4 links of the bracelet (as it must be possible to size the bracelet to small wrists too). The shots in the vid clearly show that the first couple of links are the same.

The world needs more green watches but I'd have to get the classic blue before I could get it. That makes it a $10,800 watch.

Does the current bracelet on the Seamaster Diver have the comfort adjust clasp?
Assuming it does then this will also I guess,

Yes it does. All of the current steel-on-steel 300M Divers are on the same bracelet and micro-adjust clasp.

I think this will be the most popular release from everything they showed us today.

Amazing. Pretty sure this will trade over list and be a bit hard to get like the Snoopy.

I was never a big fan of Green watches. But this one looks fantastic. At $5400 it's probably one of the best bang for your buck luxury watches out there.

Green is the new blue, which was the new gray. Trendy color right now, but how are you going to feel about it in five or ten years? Back in the 70's appliances came in new colors of Harvest Gold and Avocado....very trendy. Would anyone have one of these colors in their kitchen today?

I'm not much of a trend setter. But in 5 to 10 years, I'll still think it'll be a great looking watch.

It probably will. It is a very elegant tone of green, and usually elegant color remain cool.

Submariner Hulk is 10 years old and IMHO it's getting hotter. Green is here to stay, believe it.
