Introduction + new Planet Ocean Master Chronometer
Hi, I've been around for quite a few weeks now and never introduced myself yet.
I'm from Holland and bought my first mechanical watch exactly 10 years ago: the Seamaster Professional Chrono. Now I thought it is finally time to give my Seamaster a worthy "brother", so I can change between watches. I always liked the Planet Ocean and when a new version was announced, I read all the news and reviews I could find. In about 14 months I'm turning 40, but I just could not wait any longer ;) Last Thursday was the big day. Not only did the Planet Ocean came in, but also my grilfriend's Breitling Colt Lady. We celebrated that moment with a bottle of champagne! Thanks for all the info I could find on this forum. Here are some pictures. |

Congrats! I have the 2225.80 as well, and it's my absolute favourite watch! For the next I would like a Planet Ocean Chronograph (9300). If it ends up being too big the next time I see one I'll just go directly for the 116710LN GMT Master II. Enjoy in good health! Oh yeah, let's see some more pictures of that 2225.80!

Congrats!
Great pics of a terrific watch. I am seriously considering getting the 43.5 blue dial version. Your pics make it hard for me not to purchase it!
