    Thanks to Dave from C11 for shooting these for us, theres a few interesting models that weren't seen in many other photos like the Platinum LE 1/57 Moonphase Speedmaster and the Dark Side Meteorite dial.

    Is the CK2998 blue bezel and dial, or black? Hard to tell in these photos.

    I love the straight lug speedies and want to encourage their production...but what I really want is for Omega to reissue the calibre 321 for their manual Speedmaster lines - at the very least, for its classic hesalite Professional.

    Make the "Moonwatch", a 100% Moonwatch!

    Thanks for sharing! A lot of nice new shiney things. Some less nice (I'll looking at you annual Globemaster!) I must say I did like the sportier Seamasters.

    Am I the only one confused about the number of variations within each line? Somehow for me each watch sort of seems less spectacular when there are 15 different variations of Speedmaster with a new coming every year. Guess they know what they are doing (allthough when you deal with consumer behavior nothing is ever certain) but personally I find it a bit crowded in the Seamaster and Speedmaster lines.

    Well I dont mean to offend anyone.
    But to be honest nothing stands out to me. I understand I can only speak for myself... But I find the drastic color schemes and changes to some of the styles like the PO to be over the top. Like Omega was trying a little to hard this year playing with the crayons in design. The one release I do love is the new Globemaster! I kinda wish the original was 41mm. But at least now they upped it a bit.oh and I do like that new Speedy, digging the bezel there.

    Can we call this practice of excessive Speedmaster release SOTM-y? As in SOTM and Gomorrah in Genevisis.
