I don’t think there will be a lot of dial colors.
And concerning the price, the premium is due to the bracelet, the case, the gold rotor and the hands. |

To me, the best (visually) of all the recent efforts at a sports watch.
And it’s a nice size (will surely wear small). |

I am considering getting one. Offered a 15% discount. I think this is not a bad price for such a watch

In USA?
I asked several ADs, all refused me a discount. If they offer me that level of discount, I will buy one for sure. |

Placed an order, I really like this. Wasn’t sold at first, but the more pics I view the more it’s grown on me

Bumping this up. Anyone handle one yet, and what kind of discounts are people getting? I used to not care about banging up my nautilus but with prices as high as they are i don't feel quite as comfortable with that

If it had a date I’d order immediately, just one of those weird things that I prefer a date. It’s why I like the royal oak chronos vs the Daytona

Too much trying to join the hype train right before it goes off the rails?

Hey guys,
So I managed to try one in flesh this morning. So first impression, I was just casually walking by the boutique, chance upon this very sleek, elegant and nicely sized nautilus looking watch (from a far). Walk towards it, found out it's actually the new streamliner matrix green, immediately went in and tried it on. (It's just so happened that today is the day they first launch it here.) From photos, the streamliner may look bulky and big, but trust me, in flesh, it's wears way much smaller. I am pretty sure the dial itself, on photos makes the watch look wider than expected. The bracelet, my gawd, is amazingly finished and wears very comfortably on the wrist. Although the watch is steel, it wears surprisingly light. For the dial, it's slightly darker in real life and looks way much better. Overall, I personally think the watch wears like a 38-39mm, it looks smaller than my 114060 Rolex Submariner if you had to compare. I know many of you are concerned about the thickness of the watch, cause that was my initial concern as well when I saw the photos. However, it's really negligible. I gotta say, what did it for me was the bracelet, you have to try it to feel it. If you'd ask me, it beats AP and Vacheron on comfort and feel. The clasp? Omph, so well concealed and easily clicked in. If I wasn't on the market for a vintage rolex, I'd pull the trigger on this immediately. PS: Managed to get some photos. Apologies, it's not as detailed as I want it to be, as I was just casually trying it. |

How big is your wrist? Funny, yea photos it does look a bit thick. I do like the green dial, but someone posted there was a teaser of a lagoon version for next year which id be all over.

Looks like Moser knocked it out of the park with this one. Can't wait to get it on the wrist!

One of the forums a poster mentioned ed meylan had a teaser photo of a lagoon version. As much as I love love love the slate blue 5711 I really hope they don't do a color like that. The lagoon at least is fairly unique.
