Omega Seamaster 75th Anniversary “Summer Blue” Collection
Wow!
The Ploprof for me, please! This dial...
This dial...But they are all looking very nice!
Cheers

I need to check my eyes, I feel there is a legibility concern with the hands
On such a light dial.
All of them are gorgeous though IMO the star of the show
is the Ploprof. It comes with a size case reduced to 55x45x15.5mm. It’s big, as it has to be, though wearable (in the Ploprof way).
I'm excited about two things: the steel monobloc case and, moreover, it seems that the crown has the same concept of the original one (not clear yet), where the real crown is not the toothed one, but the one inside it!
From the photos in the article I prefer the Aqua Terra, and the WT.
IMO they works best with the dial. In the Ploprof I miss the orange accents.
I love the Ploprof…
Having said that, it seems that it is entirely redundant when compared with the ultra deep. I can’t really find a single difference other than style. I love how the PP looks but I think if I had to rely on only one diving tool watch the Ultra Deep blows away any other diver (X Fathoms excepted) tool watch in existence.
I've been told to go to the south side of hell before . . .
. . . but six thousand meters underwater? That's a first!
Obviously bragging rights
(apparently Rolex couldn’t resist that temptation either) but more importantly bragging in a reasonably sized case. For me 18 mm is the thickest case that is practical… There are other makers with deeper ratings, but the case size is absurd. World record being 1000 ft for scuba my PO Chrono at 2000 ft is quite sufficient.
Great new release!
Any shade of blue is awesome but the gradient blue really works, especially the PloProf!
I remain very happy with this one...
Plofprof for me too but changing the blue button to red for sure and changing the color of the hands and seconds
Exactly my thoughts
I hope they release another ploprof with more traditional hands/colors!
All the variations are more or less attractive . . .
. . . but there's only one I find compelling enough to consider over their nominally standard brethren.

I'm not much for world timers in general; Omega's is the cream of the crop aesthetically among manufacturers, in my opinion, but as usual, opinions may - and do - vary. What strikes me, though, is the subtle overall effect the gradient blue casts on the dial.
Not that I'm planning on any purchases before digesting the recent Grand Seiko acquisition, but of this series, it's the WT that gets my attention.
Thanks for posting this, Charlie!
Best,
