CEO: Thickness?

Assistant: 16 and 19 millimeters

An easy and cheap "new" edition that will likely sell out.

Pretty clear what HQ is thinking about -- maximum profit.

Not sure this is max profit if ppl don't really want to buy a 16mm or 19mm thick watch. That market is pretty small.

Seems like a bold launch maneuver when many of the Seamasters from last year's Summer Blue capsule haven't even delivered yet.

While you, and I, and many people on this forum don’t like the thickness, I find it hard to believe Omega has more Planet Ocean models for sale than pretty much any other line if they don’t sell. Remember, we aren’t the general public, and a lot of young guys like big, flashy watches.

Yes agree. I’m sure omega knows the market and knows they will sell. Too bad for me though!
