Purchased both thru DavidSW and they are my two favorite watches. The Omega came on the bracelet but my local AD had the rubber strap and it has been on the rubber since that day.

That Omega is absolutely as fine a watch as my Explorer ii and they share 90% of my wrist-time. This Omega may even be technically better than my Exp ii. It can be a little thick under a tight dress shirt, so I just wear some other shirt on the days I am wearing the Omega.

I’m currently thinking of picking up either the black dial EXPII or the black dial PO. What are your thoughts on how they compare?

Also, why did you flip to the rubber?
