I googled master co axial perhaps since George Daniels was a master watchmaker omega added that. I have the XL PO. It's fine for me. But I can understand your opinion. The 9300 PO is a biggie. But it looks awesome. I have a speedy pro and the po. Any suggestions for a third?
The key will be the case thickness -- if it's under 13mm, then it will be a definite contender for those (like me) who do not like the bulk and thickness of the current Planet Ocean 8500.

A straight three hand model with no date should be thinner, one would hope. What is a "master coaxial" anyway, as printed on the front? Perhaps a manual wind coaxial?!

Oh oh yes the aqua terra anti mag?

Last year, while introducing the humble bee, they mentioned that from 2017 on installing the 8508 as a standard caliber is planned. So this might be a good opportunity to start with, isn't it?

I'm hoping we see a manual coaxial. Something of a throwback to the Seamasters of the 60s. Hints here and there but we'll see in a few days. Either way, I think this year is going to be interesting.

Master Co-Axial is the 8508 (automatic anti-magnetic co-axial). 😀

Rose gold and ceramic could be rather interesting, personally I'll still go steel but that's a pretty cool combination of Omega's new technologies.

Looks like a rose-gold/titanium combination ala the America's Cup Seamaster:

There is now. 😀

Edit: Well, it may not specifically be the 8508 in that watch, since it has no date, of course. But the idea is that it's the >15,000 Gauss movement.

Really I hope they keep the price for this one reasonable not so expensive, by not using diamonds or titanium. this project is very important & interesting for me

Bet they are not going to be cheap priced above the PO range.

the crown appears not to be a screw-in version....what about depth then?

How can you tell that it's not? There's not much detail showing there.
