As long as you can still buy an one that looks like the original I am happy.

I'll reserve judgment until I see the whole thing.

Seems like a strange picture to release with such poor dial printing. The N and S are completely different weights and the the printing is not central, at all. When it’s a single ‘tease’ image you’d think you’d at least print the dial correctly.

Agreed it looks like it should be the latest version of the swatch speedmaster

Hate that plasticy Mickey Mouse ears thing. Looks daft on a £16k watch. Shame.

Omega been releasing hit after hit recently, but these new ones do nothing for me unfortunately.

It does look very odd, look at the two 25s as well, still what do you want for £16,000, it'll be fine so long as you don't use a loupe.

I must be honest, Omega do a moonphase graphic better than most because the actual image of the moon is quite amazing. When you see the basic yellow moon image on other manufacturers’ dials they look VERY naff in comparison.

Also, quite an uninteresting movement for a display back, as impressive as 45J, etc. is.
