Congrats. I really like the PP, but always chickened out at the last minute before buying. I really like the new model without the date. One day...

Nice ... question how do they size the chain link ? Is it cut to reduce ? & how comfy is it ? I am thinking abt acquiring a SHOM with a chain link bracelet ;P

And the new one lost the cool sapphire bezel insert, instead it got a ceramic one.

Very nice watch. I added a Ploprof to the collection a few months ago as it was just a crazy looking chunk of metal! Surprisingly comfortable to wear too.

You size the chain link just like any metal bracelet, instead of solid links it has chain link sections held in place by push pins.
Been using my PLOPROF since 2014 and as big as it is, it wears really comfortable. In the SHOM you are interested in, it is the same system, if you need extra links you can buy them from Omega, or if it is too big you can take links off.
Hope this helps
