Anyone see this news? It's 43.5mm ceramic case is larger than the 2018's! Titanium bezel and case back. Pretty nice...

ref 210.92.44.20.01.001

 

Wow, that is sick. Is this really Omega's most wearable ceramic case yet?

 

Ti contrast on the HEV makes it even more noticeable... RRRRREEEEEEEE!

 

I just noticed it's a no-date like the titanium/sedna version. Where's the ceramic bracelet at????

 

Maybe my opinion would change if I saw them in person, but I just don't dig the new wave style.

 

I'm liking this a lot. The wave isn't too out there to turn me off. The black and titanium is a perfect combo as well.

 

Very nice. It seems they have add the NAIAD lock to the case back...

 

I like it, and I can just about forgive the awful skeleton hands that have plagued the SMP for years.

Do we know how much this is likely to cost?

 

According to Fratellowatches it will be 7500CHF excl VAT

 

Would love it it the case was 42 mm or less.

 

Bit large maybe but otherwise smoking hot!
My guess: In six months (latest) there will be a blue ceramic SMP as well.

 

Maybe this one will become the new Bond watch? Who knows...

 

What is NAIAD lock?

I am not a native speaker, hope I read it wrong but I understand it is a patented feature which locks the caseback in two possible positions - either "Diver 300m" writing lines up to 12 o'clock or lines up to 6 o'clock.
I hope I got it wrong as it sounds like super BS.

 

As much as I like the display backs on these, having the NAIAD to align the Hippocampus on a more toolish design like this would be perfect. Definitely on my radar though, curious to see how it wears in relation to the smaller SS cases.

 

Well that will be too much wonga to spend for me on a smp.

 

Has Omega produced ceramic cases smaller than 44mm? I guess the added size is for structural integrity...

All black looks nice and the lightweight materials must make it feel like you're wearing nothing at all!

 

Yes, they have the ceramic black PO 39.5mm in the small size.

 

How awesome would it be if this was the new official Bond watch?
