Just Picked Up a PO XL!!!

I've been lusting for one and wasn't sure about pulling the trigger. I've tried it on a few times and last night I couldn't even sleep thinking that I had to have it. Just picked it up a few minutes ago. More pics to come.

Congrats on a great watch! I really like mine, but I hated the non-adjsutable bracelet so I sold it and bought the Omega rubber strap and deployant. Much more comfortable IMHO. I also love the legibility of the dial and the aggressive lume, bi-colored.

Mine is the old one with one type of lume and aluminum bezel insert. Love it so far. It fits like a glove with two and a half links off. I had to remove the half link and put a whole link on after removing three of them. Now it fits fantastic. The orange numbers are just so nice because at times they look orange and sometimes like a brick red depending on lighting conditions. I love it!

I have the same watch on bracelet and agree about the comfort. My wrist expanded with the heat when i was in Arizona recently taking up all the slack in the bracelet I normally have, which in turn made the watch too tight. I went into the local Omega AD to see if they had a rubber strap & deployant in stock. Unfortunately, they didn't but i did try on one of the showroom models fitted with the rubber and i was surprised how much lighter and more comfortable it was.

I'm hoping to pick up my next watch soon (Breitling Superocean 44mm) and that will be on rubber with deployment.
