wiesn089 Posted April 5, 2011 Report Share Posted April 5, 2011 The new ones from Baselworld look pretty similar, only the dial seems not be as shiny. I tried on a LM at the local Omega Boutique some time ago and I have to say it looks pretty stunning in the flesh! I'm not too sure about the dial for daily use, though. It's really, really blingy and very similar to the GMTIIC's bezel. Here's a bad picture from Basel, the watch pictured supposedly is the new 42mm version with 8500 caliber . Size wise pretty similar, only about one mm thicker, 15,7mm if I remember correctly and with display back (the 8500 is beautiful so I won't say anything about tool watches ).

The bracelet seems very different, too... It's using screws, and there are tabs for opening the clasp, not buttons. Let's hope all that gets rep'd soon!

BGGodwin Posted April 5, 2011 Report Share Posted April 5, 2011 That's a great looking watch! Think a rep is in the future? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jkay Posted April 6, 2011 Report Share Posted April 6, 2011 With the wild popularity of the 45 and 42mm Planet Ocean line of replicas, I don't see why not unless there's some technical hurdle to repping it properly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chefcook Posted April 10, 2011 Report Share Posted April 10, 2011 For the new constellations the rep makers now even have an 8500 look-a-like rotor. Hopefully we'll see both Aqua Terra and Planet Ocean with this movement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
importr Posted April 11, 2011 Report Share Posted April 11, 2011 Aside from the LM...what about the new Seamaster Chrono 45.5 With this calibre, the subdials & pushers are similar to the existing a7750. Although the dial at 3 has two hands within Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kokedose Posted June 6, 2011 Report Share Posted June 6, 2011 I tried the liquid metal on today at an AD and it is gorgeous, the AR is invisable and realy makes the dial pop. The one i tried on did not have a display back and im told its a limited peice of 1948. I will be on this one if they rep it as i nearly dropped over 3k on the gen today, only the thought of the kicking my touble and strife would give me put me off!

OSRep Posted June 6, 2011 Report Share Posted June 6, 2011 Have tried the LM on too. Although a very sexy watch I found it a bit on the feminine side........! I wouldnt mind owning one though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gran Posted June 6, 2011 Report Share Posted June 6, 2011 Think a rep is in the future? If ther is a marked there will be a rep so yes if thers is a new OMEGA it will be repped...its a law of replica nature..but just a reasonable rep.....and then in three, four years the 1:1 version Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DemonSlayer Posted June 7, 2011 Report Share Posted June 7, 2011 That's a very nice looking watch! Is the bezel insert ceramic with some sort of protective layer over it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
