Looks like both black/blue gradient dial and brown/gray dial on rubber straps are available on omega online.

I’ve tried it on. It fits on my wrist better than the Rolex deepsea one. Have you tried one on yet?

Not seen one in the flesh yet, i always thought it would look huge on the wrist but it looks good on yours.

Was in an OB yesterday, and was told they had so far had received two titaniums (both sold) and 1 orange on steel bracelet (also sold, same day as it arrived). They expect another shipment to arrive in 1-2 weeks, but don't know what it will contain. They had not yet received any on rubber strap.

The Chicago OB has two ultra deeps one orange bezel and the other black bezel, both on rubber straps.

I went to the New York boutique back in early July, hoping to see one of the watches in person. However, they were not for sale yet and they had shipped their display models out to another store. They asked for my name and number and said they would give me a call. Last week, I received a call saying that the model that I was interested in seeing, the orange bezel on bracelet was in, and was mine if I wanted it. I told them thank you but that I had already ordered it from a local AD. However, I have no history with this store so I cannot possibly imagine I was the first one called when that watch came in lol. But I believe that shows that they are becoming more available. I just need my AD to get the watch in!!!!!!!

Went to an Omega store in downtown Manhattan this weekend. Was offered to look at an Ultra Deep if I gave them a 50% deposit (refundable) - apparently they would have had to get one from another store?. Thanked them and left. I'll never figure out what Omega (or their representatives) are thinking.

I don’t know where you went to be offered such a “deal”, but that doesn’t sound right and is the complete opposite of any experience I have ever had with an OB!!

I've got mine through an Omega boutique in Switzerland.

My first impressions after the first day:
- It's huge, it's massive, it's a beast
- It's heavy (240g with 3,5 links removed)
- It's thick
- BUT: it wears phenomenally comfortable despite being so heavy (I have 18,5 cm / 7,08 inch wrist). I don't have the feeling that I'm weight-lifting. Omega has done an outstanding job by making this watch so wearable. This is probably the most impressive feature of this watch.
- I wear the bracelet a bit tighter than usual (so the heavy watch does not move around too much on the wrist)
- The new clasp is just wow (it's not wider or higher than the bracelet itself. great job here)
- The O-Megasteel and the ceramic bezel are not too shiny, not too bling-bling
- The dial is relatively small compared to other watches in my collection
- Build quality is outstanding

Long story short: An awesome watch.

Congrats - indeed a beautiful beast! Do you think O-Megasteel shines more than PO SS and can it be compared to a kind of 'matte' silver or even white gold?

Thanks so much for your very needed og searched for feedback.
These days my eyes were fixed on the PO Chrono with orange bezel because is comes with a darker dial than the one with white dial. I prefer a black dial in center of the orange bezel which is ultimate PO in my opinion. Unfortunately this is not an option Omega offer to the customers who fell in love with 2005 orange bezel.

The most interesting part of the orange ceramic bezel is that numerals and markers inside it are lumed and gives the watch a spectacular look like no other in the PO series. Take a look here at 4:08

Omega just opened their first Omega Boutique here in Copenhagen, Denmark and they said they will have an Ultra Deep with orange bezel in early November. I'm really excited to see it.....

Brookfield Place boutique downtown Manhattan - maybe I was looking a bit disheveled last weekend, as it was drizzling in NYC. Still, the place was empty otherwise, they could have humored me. My overall experience with Omega boutiques has been hit-and-miss, at best. I do however have one boutique I really like (got my Ed White there), which is enough.

What boutique do you really like?

It is absolutely an amazing timepiece! Congrats both @watcholone & @DrTom! I tried to find a smaller than 42mm chrono for around 6 months but I see a 45.5mm giant doesn't seem on your wrist even big 😁 This means, there are some watches for everyone 😀 What amazes me the most with this watch is the less servicing thing. It is very interesting Omega mentions that. The dial and coloring is perfect match for a diver btw. Wear it in good health!

Looks great on the OP, which I never thought I'd say given the numbers. Enjoy in good health.
