Incoming…PO 43.5mm
My first incoming post on this forum.
Just picked this beauty up last night. So happy!! I blame this forum btw - always thought the Planet Ocean was too big and not my style, then I saw some pictures here, specifically from [mention]DJ2020 [/mention] and fell in love with the black dial 43.5mm version. Went and tried it on a few times and it felt just right on the wrist. My next watch was supposed to be a white/silver dial to round out my modest collection, but instead I’ve added another black dial. I’ll probably have to sell my BB58 to fund my next watch…white dial this time Seems like the watch craze has caught up with Omega as well; had to pay a deposit and order with the AD to be imported from Geneva. Wait time was 3.5 weeks. Still got a 10% discount but less than what I was expecting. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Congrats! The PO is one of my favourites. My ad won’t offer me any discount what so ever on Omegas and I have purchase history as well (PO, SMP, hulk). Is it time for me to find a new AD?

Congratulations, the PO is such a great watch! I recently got one - I really like the way it wears and the details of the dial are awesome!

Got one myself . Purchased it on the bracelet then put it on the same omega strap and deployment.. it really is a great watch I much prefer mine on the strap makes it a little more dressy/understated in my opinion, feels like you could hammer nails in with it ..(don’t )

Congrats and enjoy. Mine's my favorite wearer -- chosen daily over several other, far more valuable, pieces. I wrote some comments, even comparing it to the mighty Sub, here.
A really great review you may enjoy is available here. I didn't write it, but I appreciate the guy who did. (If that link doesnt work, just google "Nordwulf Planet Ocean") Cheers, and enjoy! |

Looking great!! I might add the bracelet sometime next year. After this purchase, I’m in an odd Zen state…so happy with it that I’m having a hard time even making a list of watches that I’m interested in and might want to buy some day. Hoping it’s not just a honeymoon phase thing. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

This is hilarious. You’re hoping it’s not the honeymoon phase because you’d continue to be content instead of wanting more watches? I don’t mean this to sound derogatory because I kind of feel the same way. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
