This Omega seems to draw its inspiration from the same source.
Your impression of bamboo shape might come from the "Chinese" inspiration of this design, which is also very close to the Cartier Tank Chinoise.

Patek Philippe ref. 5111: an unloved model ?
With its strong design reminiscent of the Cartier Tank Chinoise , Patek Philippe's ref. 5111 , powered by cal. 215 PS, doesn't seem to be on many collectors’ radar. The case and dial design are unusual but include many subtle details . The watch is fairly...
Yes, the watch seems too large.
As I haven't seen it in real life, the only thing I can say is that I find it intriguing, but I can't tell if I really like it or not. Best, Emmanuel
shaped PP have never been very popular
they have had the tendency to be on the baroque style... The one you present reminds me of bamboo shape. Lovely but for someone who has a bit of a wider collection for everyday

I've got to confess that I'm with the crowd on this one
The lack of interest is merited
I can understand why.
I find it intriguing and believe that it's probably much nicer in real life, but I don't feel attracted to it. Best, Emmanuel
I like the layout of the dial,
but I'm not fond of the linear textured pattern of the center circle. And, even if I like the refined complexity of the case, I think it's too big. But I've unfortunately never seen this model in real life. Best, Emmanuel
To be perfectly honest I was never a big fan of this reference when it was available in stores.
For whatever reason it is now seriously growing on me
I find it very interesting too, but a little something seems to be missing for me.
At least on photos: I would have to see one in real life. Best, Emmanuel
I am a big fan of rectangular watches but for some reason I have never felt aligned with this model
Not sure if it is the size or the bezel thanks for highlighting though Julian
According to amanico, who has seen it in real life,
contrarily to me, the bezel should be thinner and if it was, it would be a killer (thinks he)... Best, Emmanuel
