      Err, I quite like it! 😃

      Enough to have bought it if available?

        Possibly. I'm finding most watches now are a bit boring, being recreations or evolutions of the same basic styles from the fifties or sixties. The Casquette is a retro-futuristic throwback, and has a different design language.

          I kinda like it, too. I wouldn't buy it as a regular use watch, but if I had a ton of watches already, (and the requisite funds) I'd buy it just to have an oddball one to wear when the mood hit.

            I agree, it’s unique and kind of a conversation starter. It’s like…..a $3k GShock 😀 Most people and @Giles will hate it but it’s fun to try to convince them otherwise 😀

                    The high shine dials aimed at Rolex's OP line do nothing for me. Cool to see the Ultra Deep as a production model though.

                      I prefer the titanium version of the Ultra Deep, which has a slightly different case.

                      I agree that the Aqua Terra range appears to be going after Rolex, but the Ultra Deep is telling the Sea-Dweller Deep Sea to come and have a go if it thinks it's hard enough! 😃

                      There's also a new version of the Speedmaster '57 with the movement from the Chronoscope. I like the sandwich dial and burgundy variants.

                        That burgundy dial Speedmaster has a nice 70s vibe to it.

                          If green dials are a bit passé for you, might I suggest the Moritz Grossman Central Seconds in purple…

                            Moritz Grossman is in a different league from Omega. They are really superb. Their recent world timer is also very cool:

                              Glashütte Original have announced the panorama date version of the SeaQ with an oh-so-fashionable green dial.

                                  The SeaQ Panorama Date is beautiful, and GO's attention to detail is excellent (see the green colored date wheel here). This said, the new green 300M is more attractive to me, at less than 1/2 the price.

                                    Epic af @jtbel1988! I love that one. Such a classic Panerai and I hear it wears well on the wrist.

                                        Seiko versus Patek from Horomariobro's Instagram. But I suspect that I'm preaching to the choir here. 😃

                                            Omega allegedly unveiled all their new watches last week, only to slip out an announcement for the Omega CK 859 Re-Edition. It's got a 39 mm steel case, silver dial, a hand wound Master Chronometer movement, and is gorgeous.

                                            Monochrome has the details, no-one else seems to have picked up on it yet.
