The Omega Planet Ocean ref 2201.50 arrived today and I picked it up at the local post office.

It is a gorgeous watch, better in person than my photos.... dial is really easy to read. Came with the inner and outer boxes, purchase receipt from the original owner. The three cards (Int'l warranty, chronometer cert and Pictograms) came with the watch undated, purchaser name unmarked, but stamped by the AD.

Here are photos of them. Please excuse the white balance!

Well done, Vernon...what a bloody beauty!! Wear it in good health, my friend!! :thumbsup:

Did you have any problems with the fit after resizing? If so, make use of the HALF link provided to get that final fit. Unfortunately, OMEGA clasps don't have any micro-adjustments.

A true classic, in mint condition looks like. The PO is truly elegant and timeless. Larry.

Did I really say "timeless"? No, that couldn't have been me...

My colleague tried one on for a day so, I got to see it in person and it's OMG BIG hunk of steel on my wrist! I asked him you going to keep it? his answer was, I'm thinking about it, I like it because it's so big and heavy on my wrist! Let me tell you ... it is very big and very heavy and I thought my SD was big and heavy.....!

Been wearing the PO all day today and so far its been great. It is quiet a heavy watch, and I can feel that its on my wrist.

It seems to be heavier than the SD, but I have to compare when I get it back from RSC.

The bracelet is a little loose on me. The previous owner took two links out already, and will probably have to take 1/2 link out.

Big congrats Vernon!:cheers: The PO is a great watch.:thumbsup:
I've found the accuracy of the co-axial movement to be supurb!

Congratulations! The PO is a superb and stylish choice in my opinion. I don't have one yet so I am jealous, but I do hope that you enjoy yours, which I am sure you will. :cheers:
