Awesome! What camera did you use for the pictures? They're very clear for how close up they are.

^ It was just an I-Phone 7; most of my photo's are usually a blur so this was pure luck

I bought my PO about 6 weeks ago, I was wanting something a daily wear and not worry too much about it. I wanted something a little different and with a bit of colour.

I love the face and bezel( Ceramic, liquid metal and rubber ) and then the clear case back, as well as the box it comes in, that is a work of art in itself.

Great watches.

I was torn between the black and the "more orange" option, yours looks great, it is a fantastic daily wearer and a great addition

I couldn't agree more with the comments about this being a fantastic watch. In fact, in spite of owning other brands (Rolex, AP, Patek, JLC, etc) I'm finding that my PO is getting almost all of my wrist time.

The look is fresh and unique compared to all the Submariners you see in day to day life. The timekeeping is spot-on. And the durability is amazing. This thing really is built like a tank.

Long story short.....you made a great choice, my friend! Mine says hello!

I think they both look fantastic.

Great looking watch and pictures. How does it wear comfort wise? I've got a seamaster 2254.50 and love the way the lugs curve down and wrap around the wrist. Does this do the same?
Cheers

I've not tried a 2254.50 but I've attached a couple of photo's showing the lugs compared to a Deepsea to show how relatively short they are. Whilst the PO and Deepsea are 43.5/44mm in case size; the lug-to-lug distance on the Deepsea is much greater. I find the shorter lug-to-lug distance on the PO enables the watch to sit nicely and wrap around the wrist for a very comfortable fit. I hope this helps

SteveDSSD thanks for taking the time to post comparison pics. The 43.5 is definitely on my radar now. Cheers.

Welcome to Omega Club buddy.

Great - love it!!! Wondering if you have "dressed up" you PO in a formal setting. IF so, how does it do? Is it too sporty, or can it fit in just right?

IMO the orange is quite subtle and not really noticeable unless up close, it fits nicely with formal work wear. I usually wear it with either a blue or grey suit

Since re-setting it's gained 4 secs in 37 days or +0.1secs per day. Best timekeeping of any of my watches

Great timekeeping! I prefer the look of this to the deep sea I think based on tour photos above. I have a friend who wears his with a suit and it looks really great.

I’m really enjoying some of omegas designs at the moment. While I like Rolex, I find them a bit sterile on occasions and am leaning to omega as my brand of choice at the moment. Of course, I don’t like all of them but I like the risk taking and different look of many of their pieces.

My PO, (see pictures earlier in the thread) is a bit to much for a formal setting, to bulky and too colourful..... but that's not what I bought it for.

Yes I agree. My Deepsea will always be in my collection but it is a big block of steel with significant lug-to-lug length that makes fitting it nicely (or as nicely as a PO) a bit tricky. The PO IMO is as well made as a modern Rolex and offers good value for money. I too like the different styling of Omega and whilst I will always have an affinity to Rolex, Omega gets my attention at the moment. I've fairly recently bought a 1992 Speedy and am rotating the two Omega's with a Rolex so the Omega's get the most wear

Congrats! Beautiful piece!

PO Beats sub. Unless it's a Hulk.

Perfect color combo. Looks great!
