Rumor: New 42 mm PO with Slimmer Case
Several folks in the watch enthusiast community have rumored that Omega is working on releasing a new 42 mm Planet Ocean with a thinner case. Expected to be released sometime in the final Quarter of this year. I have no sources, no info, other those that have stated employees at Omega AD’s or Boutiques have confirmed this. I personally would be very excited for a new, slimmer PO, but as I always say, “I’ll believe it when I see it!” Anyone heard anything about this? Will we get a new, slimmer PO this year?? *Image borrowed from www 🍻

I sure like the idea
A Planet Ocean with no date and solid caseback would, I think, signal some extra clarity in Omega's diver lineup, where the Seamaster Pro line is the "everyday watch that's a diver" and the Planet Ocean is the more toolish variety. If they did that while ...
No date, solid caseback and removal of HE valve
All improvements in my eyes Ian! But in these hypothetical mock ups, has it now gained a crown guard?
Nope!
The conversations and food were great, but when I left, my PO cal. 2500 was still the slimmest PO in the house.
Rumor has it
It will still be 14 mm + thick 🤷🏻♂️ I was hoping for 12 mm. One can dream. Love the OG PO, fond memories with that watch! 👍🏻

Thinner profile
As I’m sure most of us can agree, would be a huge step forward for Omega. If you remember the 2500 cases from back in the day, they still managed a sleek profile, even with the co-axial escapement. The trend for them, even with a relatively thin movement,...
Let’s hope for a reversal 🤞🏻
Watches like the IWC Ocean 2000 demonstrate that one can do it with a very slender case 👍🏻
Agreed 100%
But if Omega did actually make one of their cases THINNER(!!!), we can’t have it all 😂
With 60 models of Diver 300M, 60 models of PO and 159 models of Aqua Terra….
Yeah, probably true another 21 models of 42mm PO to top 300 models of SeaMasters 🤣 I’m not sure how inefficient and wasteful is their production line or it’s the opposite, way too flexible and versatile.
