    Hmm that version doesn't have the faux lume. Will the trilogy version be different than the 3557 pieces version?

    The hands and dial will have aged lume, which is not shown on their mock-up on that page...

    I guess this probably means SM and RM will have pre-aged lume, too huh? Dang it. (IMHO)

    On the other hand, I am very intrigued about the bracelet. This probably means a classic design bracelet with polished/satin combo that works well with FOIS/CK2998. And maybe Omega will make more 19mm NATO straps now that they have several models with 19mm lug width.

    Except you'll be on a waitlist that can't be fulfilled due to the limited numbers being produced and you'll be ignored since you're not a regular Boutique customer :eek:

    You know.... i am pretty sure these are just computer renderings (CAD) made to look like MRI slides.... its just marketing.

    All components are already computer spec'd so they just have to add the filter to degrade the image ( pretty easy to do) and create a slide show.

    On a related matter. king kong is not real, sandra bullock has never been to space and the Wolverine is just an aussie vaudeville actor with fake claws ( i do like him though)

    Does it have to be an OB, or can you place an order at an AD? (under usual circumstances, I appreciate nothing has been released for this yet)

    I wish I could use that on the 300mc. The male end links on the 300mc make the watch look much longer than it is.

    If you consider that 3557 pieces come on the market, I guess they will eventually also appear at ADs. Box is a different story....:whistling:

    I completely agree! Much better design, specially without the date window surround.
