    For example, the new ck2998....how did you all know when it was announced / when it was available for preordering?

    I'm on the Omega mailing list but I rarely get anything from them and the last two emails I've gotten are for ladies watches.

    Any help would be great. Thanks!!

    We usually know about a watch 35 or 40 years before we desire to purchase it.

    Oh, wait...... this is the Modern Omega Watch forum. Sorry!

    Check out the news for Baselworld next year. It will be March. 23 - 27.
    Roumors will start before that, but announcements are made there.

    It's easy when the latest release for the watches you like came out in 1970. :)

    Those sites but as soon as there's news or a leak there's a thread here, and people pouring over photos / planning pre-orders

    Basel world, hodinkee and watch forums. It's all you really need. Or just follow a brand you like on any social media platform.

    Interesting a Rolex guy has the same issue with the deep sea that I have.

    Agree on Daytona but might be 1 year off. The datejust size decrease is bold and make sense but I doubt we will see it.

    Funny that he says Omega produces "much lower volume" when Omega sells more units per year and produces roughly the same, despite more complicated manufacturing process. [emoji23]

    Liked the YM updates for a sec until I recalled how awful those rubber straps are.

    He is quoting total sales and confusing that as units.
