Omega Seamaster Planet Ocean Ultra Deep Professional Watch

The new Omega “Ultra Deep” experimental watch (sadly, not for sale) is a thick but gorgeous design which I hope will someday translate to more practical watches from Omega.

The “Ultra Deep” is as deep as it gets. As you can see from the thickness of the case, this will look better on a robot arm than a human one, and that’s more or less what it was designed for anyway.

Apple Watch Review and Photos by Benjamin Traves

The Apple Watches have arrived. Full review coming soon, but for now enjoy the first photos I took. This is the 38mm Sport version of the Apple Watch. Be sure to check back soon for more!

* Thank you Leica Store Miami for the cameras I used to take all of these photos and video clips.

 

This is a rolling review, meaning I will be adding my thoughts and updating all the time. I've had my watch for about a week now and what I find most interesting is that it feels like I've always had it, meaning it is so intuitive and seamlessly blends with my daily life that it doesn't feel at all out of place. I know it's new, but it's also very familiar and I really feel like I've worn it for years. I'll go into the technical details later, but for now I think my first impressions are more useful to anyone considering the Apple Watch.

More words soon, but for now, enjoy the photos!

 

Here's a slideshow with some of my first images of the brand new Apple Watch Sport:
