It's not for me, but it is a cool piece. I like the domed crystal a lot.

I actually like it, although the price is too steep. Also, am I correct in thinking that grade 2 titanium, is fairly "low" grade compared the grade 5?

IIRC it's also what Tudor use on the Pelagos. Plenty of people complain about it but I find it hard to tell the difference in scratchablity, lustre or anything else between my Ti grade 2 and 5 watches.

I actually really like this piece. Expensive, and no way I'm buying one as a SM300 LE owner, but it combines some interesting elements in terms of materials and colours from a range of Omega designs in a pretty compelling and distinctive package. Think it will look great out of the box and get better with age.

I like it, not too over the top and a more classic look IMO.

I think the price is nuts, but the overall look of the watch is great. Did I read that the dial and the insert are aluminum? That seems odd to me, as it's possible to put a matte finish on ceramic. Tudor has a matte finished, ceramic bezel insert, for example. Also, I love the solid case back!! Omega attributes the thinner case to the domed crystal (a domed crystal usually makes for a thicker watch, overall...), but I suspect it's the flat case back. Please, Omega: consider this on all of your divers!!

I mentioned the price: it seems out-of-the-ordinary to me because while there's usually a bit of an up-charge for titanium, this is quite a bit of difference. Even the NATO version of this watch is the same price as the ceramic and titanium version. This is one of the first Bond Edition Omegas that I really like, but the price seems really out of whack.

I like it. Think its beautiful on the mesh. Its clearly been fitted with a superior movement but agree with @JeremyS the price is way too high. I'm sure they'll sell thousands of them.

Pretty close to perfect for me. Only thing they should have done different is kept the sapphire caseback and put in that gun.barrel pattern rotor. The plain caseback seems generic and cheap.

I like it, but the price puts it out of reach for me unfortunately.

This looks just spectacular. I won't be paying that price for it, and I've never really been interested in titanium watch, but black and tan is killer.

Is it just me, or are all new releases the last months priced very high?

Agreed... I'm liking this one. When I first read something about it being around $9K I couldn't help but think about Ti Planet Oceans that are less expensive. Doesn't mean I won't buy one sometime 😁 (distant future or pre-owned), just surprised me that the price was that high.

Stunning. But too expensive.

The ref to Dr No further implies the new villain is Dr No. Maybe Omega have let the cat out the bag.

Christ on a bicycle, this is nice. As an ex-RAF guy it’s nice to see the pheon at 6 o’clock.
