Icon20 New PO 42 mm

Hi all! I think Ive made my best buy ever! I finally got my brand new PO

Its amazing and I can admit that ive been blind for a time on the Rolex brand

IMO this watch is really downprized, its really great at all points (exept for the first po i bought with broken bezel)

Ill come back later with a more detailed review, here is a strater pic anyways!

all!

It's a beautiful watch. I have gotten more comments on my PO than I ever have with my GMTII. Can't wait for my new rubber strap to arrive next week. I love this thing!

Sincere Congratulations!

I LOVE the PO's and I honestly believe they're the best VFM out there.....

I have said this before and will say this again: The Omega Planet Ocean, in my not so humble opinion, is the best looking dive watch on the planet. It retains classic looks but incorporates some modern flair. Timeless yet very bold for a classic looking diver. The A/R crystal makes the dial pop even more. The silver ring gives the face that much more character.

Congratulations.

Congrats! You'll certainly enjoy wearing it.

Mine has the orange bezel. Then, I bought the black bezel. So, I am in PO heaven.

I don't wear mine enough! I always think about trading it because it doesn't get much wrist time, but I can bring myself to do it. It has a strangle on me that I can't describe and won't allow me to let it go. It is my best looking watch.

I have the 45mm - and think it's the best watch I have ever owned dollar for dollar.

I am over the big watch fad myself and will probably be getting the 42 soon. Since I have plenty of black dive watches - I think the orange bezel is in order.

CONGRATS ON YOURS!

Congratulations, enjoy in good health. The only reason I would stop wearing my 2594.52, is if I owned a PO.
