This is completely uninspired, uninteresting and uncreative.

Yet somehow it's release will come with quotes from Omega about how this is the greatest thing since sliced bread and is somehow groundbreaking.

I'm sure they'll also find an astronaut to say that when the sun comes out the Moon is essentially white.

Hopefully not a white ceramic case for this speedy ... white dial and tachymetre - okay, but ... please please give it a steel case!

I'm reserving judgement and just enjoying the tease.... I think too many of us are viewing these creative IG posts from Omega and taking them all literally as if that is the finished product. I'd like to think what we're seeing are stages of development of the piece and not nearly anything like the finished product. I think we're looking at a Speedmaster Professional, 50th anniversary Gemini IV Speedy, obviously ceramic, 42mm twisted lug case design, clearly a display back of some type, but I've got to believe Omega is holding back quite a bit for the final reveal. Keep the faith.

or, I could be completely wrong ;-)

edit: confirmed, I was way off.

There are already tons of comments on the instagram page.

how many sides of the moon are there?
is it the dark dark side of the moon?

They go on and on.

I am still hopeful.

Not Quite as Dark as Dark but Still Darker than the Grey Side of the Moon? or the NQaDaDbSDttGSofM?

Don't think it'll catch on.

Maybe they will have a black ceramic bracelet with matte end links and shiny center link.

Hopefully we will have all the answers tomorrow.

I recall that last year Watch Insider had full details and photos of all of Omega's offerings the day before Basel opened.

If the same happens this year, that would be tomorrow at 12:00 local time in Geneva if I am not mistaken.

Agreed!!! The clasp on my SM300 Master Co-Ax with the adjustments is great. My Planet Ocean is a hair too small and if I add the half link its just a bit too loose.

hi - I have the same issue with my PO2500. did you find a solution? did you try 2xhalf links to replace a full link?
