in that case, perhaps the shock resistance
Of the central tourbillon would have been tested as well

Hope the Raiders have a much better year this time around. I miss the Raiders from back in the day, as they brought mayhem to the game, whereas now, the only one's that come close are the Ravens. The league needs that antagonist team, and the Raiders where born to fit that role.
Best regards,

Omega CEO Stephen Urquhart: A Candid Chat.
Stephen Urquhart has been the President of Omega since June 1999. Prior to that, he was Director of Blancpain, on the Board of Directors of Jaeger LeCoultre, President and CEO of Audemars Piguet, and began his career with Omega in 1964 as a Manager of Mar...
A very interesting discussion - thanks for sharing
Good to hear some confirmation on the assured future of the speedmaster in its current form, and perhaps a recognition of where the constellation brand is now, compared to where it used to be, and perhaps how collectors might like it to be. Good also to h...
You know exactly what questions to ask my friend.
This is a very cheerful post for an otherwise dreadful workday (for me). You managed to confirm/deny certain speculations in one sitting. Congratulations and thank you for that. I also agree with grumio's remark about the CEO being surprisingly concerned ...
I have to credit Marcus with the inspiration for . . .
. . . both questions regarding movement developments, Ruckdee . . . cordially, Art
Nice work..very interesting..and candid indeed..
Nice job Art, you pulled no punches with Monsieur and he didn't perform the usual CEO speak. It was actually nice to hear some insights to upcoming product development and his disappointment with Omega BH. Very interesting read and thank you for the repor...
Great job, Mr A.D.
Very interesting reading, and very complete, too, as you covered the Modern, the Vintage, the movements and the Boutique or Shops. Sorry for the B.H Boutique. Best, Nicolas
great interview Art. its good to see a CEO who thinks more of product than profit
some very interesting hints from him. good to hear the iconic Speedmaster isnt changing movements and that i should still be able to buy a Railmaster XXL when i have enough pennies. its interesting about the Constellation. i've never liked the claws over ...
Many PuristS questions about Omega answered...
Thanks to Art and Monsieur Urquhart for the interview and answers to the PuristS' questions. Now that we know, we can rest assured of some things and stop whining about others. Whew! MTF This message has been edited by MTF on 2010-09-08 04:36:53
Constellation
Very nice job, Great targets and pithy So Art, you are going to show us which of your Constellations you were wearing, correct?
Nooooooooooo, Art...
Nooot this one, please. You make me suffer, my friend. Best, IL Consigliere.
Nice work, Art
You trimmed that into a very good interview. Interesting the the XXL Railmaster was their bigger seller. I would have thought for sure it would have been one of the smaller ones.
The phrase he used, "biggest appeal", could . . .
. . . be meant subjectively; it might be that the automatic versions are more common, but the manual-winding version has the cachet. We'll never know for sure until Omega releases their sales figures. Btw, thanks again for the photos! Cordially, Art
great interview
shed light of future of the 1861 moonwatch...and wow...flightmaster reborn!! thks Art fr the frank interview. he seems very product focus, not quite the "my marketing campaign blah blah blsh" or " we had super star xxxx wearing our stuff" etc. and his fra...
very well-written and insightful interview....
Art, thanks for this very nice report. do enjoy reading it. those questions you were asking during the interview are also the one i like to know. it seems Omega will be giving us a lot of surprises about their new products in a coming or so. for me i am q...
Great interview!
Thank you, Art, and also thanks to Mr. Urquhart. It's a shame you ran out of time before asking the most important question of them all: When can you go into the Tourbillon Boutique to pick up the "loaner" Central Tourbillon for reviewing purposes? Hope y...
The interview took place on the 24th floor of . . .
. . . the Ritz Carlton, Alex. I'm afraid I'd have been tossed out the window had I asked! First Sunday of football season in America tomorrow, Alex . . . I plan on watching a few games and enjoying my share of guacamole and cerveza ;-) . . . This message ...

Late to the party
Late to the party, but I wanted to say thanks for the excellent interview, Art. Rare to read such candid comments from a high level executive. I was particularly surprised by his awareness of/agreement with common perceptions of the modern Constellation l...
Glad you enjoyed . . .
. . . it, Alex. Mr Urquhart was admirably forthright, I must say. Most cordially, Art
I truly hope you meant Omega . . .
