I'd like to see that too.

[eric23]

Nice! I would love that RG

[Ristretto]

The Ti is off the charts.

[Starwalker]

I like it! I like it alot!!! The 7 is in reference to the number of F1 World Championship that he won. I really like the stars at the top, a subtle yet elegant reminder of what a genius he is when behind the wheel. However, just wish the watch had a bit more POP!

[iLLGT2]

Interesting...

Don't love the stars, engravings on the plots either...

Blue looks cool , however, they are just looking the same after a while.... Too outrageous and blocky, and the prices are too

[Watchonisto]

Very cool

[Bulliondesk]

It's basically a combo of the Grand Prix and new 44mm Offshore. Honestly, there was so much anticipation a few years back about a piece being made for him.. I think it's a big let down.

Have been looking at specs sheet all day of the MS LE i must say......I now want the old GPC even more

I sold mine in preparation for this, I think I messed up. I do like the MS and I like the Ti, but I am kind of shocked that the design was a lazy one. Some merging of current and past pieces and the MS was born

They could have done a lot more with it. I like some aspects and I like it's versatility over the GP, but I am thinking of the GP again.

My GPC may be up for sale soon if I like the Schumi in person ;)

I kind of agree, The RG and the PT sings loudest to me.
However i'm not a big fan of "named" LE's except the Barichello of course

Schumi is a big name that is well known and this one would feel to much of fan watch if that makes any sense.

The GP have been a favourite of mine for some time now and i honestly regret not pulling the trigger on BNIB ones i've been offered a couple of times.

I agree, Thomas. This piece seems to be for Schumi fans to add to their Omega Schumi collection IMO.

Exactly my point, Messi will be another one of those as well.

[blcblc]

I think the stars represent the championships he won (2 with benetton, 5 with ferrari).

[boursachi]

so, now begs the question:

Schumi LE
vs
Buemi LE

is this even fair? or is the Schumi only to be put up against the GP?

Lebron LE will also be out soon

Seems like the perfect watch for someone with wrists the size of Lebron's.

Come to think of it, the Schumacher sort of looks gigantic also. I wish they made some of these in smaller sizes...

Exactly what I was thinking. I like all three of them though lol.

[Spanby200]

Buemi all day long, much nicer looking watch IMHO

Its.....only 44mm

[mb23]

I like the Ti, just waiting to hear pricing.

Can't wait... ;)

[psv]

Excellent because it is not at all to my liking so one less watch to add to the list. Messi's ROC on the other hand...

[EdChoi]

Hm.

I like the Ti, but agree that it looks big, probably because there isn't much color variation in the main surfaces. I doubt anyone will agree with me on the following, but if I take my finger and cover the protruding part on the right of the Ti (the part that houses the chrono pushers), I see a big improvement. I think that this particular watch should have had the older 42mm style pushers with a more symmetrical case. And don't typically feel that way about the 44mm-style case.

[iLLGT2]

Sign me up for a GP carbon too, my next... This schumi has not grown on me an ounce
