I hope they add a PO GMT.
The current one is by far the most pointlessly thick model in the lineup despite its various ceramic and titanium options.

I rather wish they had the Seamaster Pro GMT make a comeback in steel, reviving the much loved “Great White GMT” in a Cal 8800 based watch that’s decently thin, steel, and has a GMT bezel unlike the final Seamaster Pro GMTs that had a dive bezel for some reason.

Just got hit with a bunch of Omega advertising stating “It starts with Orange”

Sounds like new PO is imminent.

Can’t believe Omega are going full Trump. Thought Rolex were buttering him up.

Maybe you mean Smashing Pumpkins…
Even though I like the Smashing Pumpkins, it was Smash Mouth for this post.

Was referring to the song "Walking on the Sun" to the Hot Side of the Sun post and comparing it to the Speedmaster being worn while walking on the surface of the moon. Plus throw in another ceramic version release for another side of the moon didn't know existed.

It was funnier in my noodle when I came up with it, but I'm sure if we landed on the sun, Omega would've released it.

Orange blobs! The ad men must have a field day, they made this stupid ad work. At least on OF::facepalm1::

And since this tread is about a new Seamaster Planet Ocean, we got to talk about Speedys::facepalm1::. Well I guess this is the Speedmaster forum.

Confirmed that it's a rumour?
Sorry English is not my first language.
The rumors ( pics and date) will be confirmed soon.

If the Planet Ocean's classic color is orange, it's a missed opportunity by Omega not to have golfer Rickie Fowler signed as an ambassador the last 15 years. He would have been better than the reprehensible Sergio Garcia.

A remake of the LiquidMetal LE would be pretty sweet, the glassy dial, polished serifs and thin case made that thing the king of Planet Oceans, still to this day: https://stories.omegaforums.net/the-ultimate-planet-ocean-liquidmetal-1948-limited-edition/


I agree, this came out around the time I was first getting into watches when I was younger, I thought it was incredible then and I still really appreciate it now - still my favourite PO. This video...
