My new Seamaster "Sword Hands"
I have long admired this watch as one of the more stunning dive watches. I finally picked one up on the second hand market. I'm thrilled with it - its in great, practically mint condition. I have an Omega Nato band on it at the moment but I'm thinking of putting it on the Planet Ocean shark mesh bracelet (if my eyes can take the bling !).

Life span of current planet ocean?
Any rumours of omega releasing a new model? (and discontinuing the current?) Happened to the original 2500. How likely is it omega will release a revamped range of models sporting the new master co axial?
