You are so lucky. I bet you will see the limited edition Omega SeaMaster Planet Ocean liquid metal. I think there are only 1,947 (I may be off a bit) The new liquid metal has a super movement, awesome hands, and a Ceramic bezel. Omega is doing it correctly as many now days will not pay what Rolex is asking.

On a positive note there is a great chance Rolex will not do any price hikes until late four quarter of next year (source) The fact is Rolex is not stupid. Their products are too high now. Rolex staffers know a price increase would mean death in todays market.

Appropriate decorum would dictate that you must wear an Omega to an Omega event

Nevertheless, I guess that watch will do.

Do you know what Omega is launching exactly?

Decorum...thank you, looked it up on google .

I will post some pics of the event,with some Omegas too ... with the 289 taking centre stage. Anyway,for a Paneristi to wear anything else would border on blasphemy.

The AD aquired the Omega dealership,so I think its more a launch of their Omega line,than a launch of new Omegas.Anyway,perhaps we see the 633rd SE of the moonwatch ??

In all seriousness,always liked the moonwatch and the Railmaster XXL(Must be the size !! ) and some of their rosegolds/yellow golds which one hardly ever see.Looking forward to the event !!
