To be honest, I don't like these new models at all. This also applies to the new Carrera models. So these watches are not for me.

Not in the market for something like this so I’d need to try one one and strike a deal, but even then?

Seamaster looks fantastic. Aquaracer looks like something youd pay a few bucks for in a market in Turkey and it'd stop working on the flight home. (Image quality may be a factor in this assessment)

Agree...everything about the Omega says classy.
Dial to the Bracelet.

Anybody know if the new Aquaracers still have the plastic movement holder?

The wavy dial of the 36mm is even more seamaster

I do too... I really don't like the Seamaster, or its horrible bracelet.

or it's horrible bracelet.

I know what you mean. It somehow looks cheap.

TAG Heuer's Carrera bracelet prior to the H-bracelet had a similar appearance.

..but the 844 HAD a date, a very nicely placed unmagnified one at 3 o'clock. Ok ok I know this is just a 'homage'.

I guess no date is actually preferable to the rather contentious execution of the square/round magnified 6 o'clock thing. (Choice of relevant emojis) ::facepalm1::🤨😵‍💫😒

The date itself I can live with (still prob wouldn't buy it), it's the cyclops that takes it from "wish it wasn't there" to "ruins the thing"

Hmm - not sure about the new AR. This series is one of my favorites (maybe because of my history with my 2000 being my first watch), but I prefer a smaller (41 mm) size. Is there any lume on the bezel? Doesn't look like it.

The Omega SMP looks far better to my eye. I know it's not for everyone, particularly the SMP bracelet. But to me the SMP looks like a higher quality watch - which it should for the price. Maybe the AR will grow on my more...

Someone shared a lume shot earlier, the numbers on the bezel are lumed, looks good

Ahh sorry, I assumed it was all of them
