 Interesting to see Omega offering a 2015 update of the legendary Seamaster Ploprof at BaselWorld 2015! It has only been since 2007 that Omega released the last Seamaster Ploprof 1200m based on the ultra-cool vintage diver from the 70's.

Significant differences with the 2015 model:
*Co-Axial Chronometer movement very similar to the 8500 movement used in the 2007 version, but contains additional anti-magnetic protection.
*The New version is also No-Date, for a very clean dial layout.
*The most significant difference is that the new 2015 Ploprof is cased in Titanium with Ceramic Bezel inserts (versus the 2007 model cased in SS with Sapphire Bezel inserts). Should wear amazingly light on the wrist, (although the SS version is very comfortable especially when combined with a rubber dive strap IMO).

Several very cool color combinations being offered IMO.
