Mmm, looks like perhaps this was taken the wrong way : by no means was this a Rolex fanboy post, in fact if you look at my post history and watch collection (and avatar!) you’ll see I have a lifelong attachment to Omega. I was just trying to get a discussion going on the technical implications of the 3861, and other avenues Omega might be exploring given that strategical direction.
No takers? I’ll say this: the investment in the 3861 shows to me that the leadership is making a conscious effort to invest in substance , and not just heritage and limited editions. Which makes me hopeful for Basel (or whatever the swatch group show is this year) and the future generally.
