as seen in the new arrivals:
the new Ti and 500 megs are in a word... Awesome!
...significant changes are the use of titanium in the Meg which is almost a freaky feeling putting it on after years of wearing the much heavier SS Megs,and the new blue dial is sweet!
....the 500 profile is very cool,and the feel of the thinner case is very appealing as well as the inner rotating bezel...once again Ralf and Steve have put together a couple of winners!

Looks most definitely Brushed to me, while the Mega 500 above is Blasted.

Very kewl pieces, oagaspar and totally agree w/your assessment on both accounts.  I have a Blasted Ti Meg 4 w/Blue Dial, Silver Hands and Lume Bezel...plus, a Blasted Meg 500 w/Silver Dial and Black Hands on the way.  Really looking forward to their arrival as these will make #s 14 & 15 Megs in my collection.  Always have loved the Meg line.  Yes, Steve and Ralf have put together some new Meg winners.  Have a good one and Happy Collecting All!

Two great catches! Could you share another wrist shot of the Meg 500? I really curious as to how it wears and what's your wrist size? Thanks!

Wow, that 500 is really nice and I like the fitted rubber strap. What is the diameter and lug width on that one? It almost looks like I could pull that one off...my 1st gen Meg is too darned big for me but this one might could work...

Hey there Clickie McPete,
The Meg 500 is a 47mm w/24mm lugs. I just received mine...a blasted case w/silver dial & black hands & love it. It has a lower profile, yet is still substantial...a terrific alternative for Benarus fans who have found the traditional Megs to be too large on the wrist (I happen to love the Megs, old & new). Just my 2 cents for what it's worth. Hope this helps? Have a good one & Hapoy Collecting All!
