1 Owner PloProf 600 Arrived Today

It is a bit ironic that my first post on the Rolex forum is about an Omega. After years and years of admiring the PloProf, I happened upon this gem on ebay Saturday night. A one owner, all original example with a great provenance from an IMCA member. Needless to say, I am thrilled with the watch which makes it a lot easier to sell a few pieces to make room for this beast! It will be right at home with its Rolex counterparts Apologies for the poor pics.

Thanks guys. Picked up a 24mm Omega mesh bracelet to try out, but I have to say, the original one is incredibly comfy.

Thanks for the congrats.

Mesh arrived...don't know what I was thinking. Looks like crap because it is brand new and polished. No way to match the patina unless I brush it. Will most likely resell. Isofrane will be ordered soon.
