Copper's pretty cool Oscar, I agree, bring it down at least $100.00!!  KO.A. Gaspar wrote: 1st. Look...New Executive.....Whaddauthink Unfinished Unitas 6497....New Dial,No Deployant......I Like the Copper Though....Maybe at $100 Less

Seeing It Live Did Not Float My Boat ....The Plain Unfinished Unitas was No Where Near as Nice as the original....and the Radiant Dial w/Little Texture will Take Some Getting Used to....Price Will Motivate Me in the End

I'm with you guys, I like the looks.  Should have a sapphire crystal for $300, a little finishing on the movement wouldn't hurt, either.  Love the copper color, though.

As long as were bashing Nvicta/SNBC pricing, can someone explain why this quartz chrono is $600??????????????

Dial is a little too busy for me....too "Fashion Forward"...............not nearly as classic as the original, but, all-in-all, acceptable...........and the "starting" price is reasonable!  I imagine ultimately, they will clear for around $150 at which time, even I may opt for one.

I do miss the crooked logo, though!  Perhaps it's just a manufacturing error!

I like the new version over the original. I'd like to see a black dial with silver indicies though. And, I miss the lumn dots around the dial. But, it is a better design (IMHO) overall. And, I agree with Ken C that $299 is a reasonable starting point, pricewise.

That said, are copper dials coming back? I mean they never went away, but they sort of faded for a bit. Now, I see them coming on strong again. Or, should I say rose dials? I dunno...

I really like the watch its easier to see for us seeing impaired folks than the orignal version imo  :O)))... Than the old one !!! Even if it is the hardest to see of all the dials I love the copper dial . I don't think that color a last much of a price drop it a sell out fast IMHO !! But I also think they are gona drop the price Sunday REMEMBER they need to get folks to watch there show on Super bowl sunday !! NO better reason than unshown price drops !! This is planned imho !!!MY advice is BUY the copper now and take your money back if 1 they don't drop the price if you want the watch and 2 IF they do drop it They are good about giving you the refund diffrence in money !!!  anyway my point is the copper is really nice I think they will drop the price BUT the copper won't last long IMO !!!Black and Brown a pop in and out a stock most likely from returns and some new stock also  for weeks if not months !!!! again IMHO and more stock a show up but maybe NOT copper again just IMO ! :)
