I just can't get this watch off my mind. I think the case is bizarre (at best), it is way too big and absurdly heavy at 280 grams or so on the mesh, the cal 8500 lacks the date quick-set yet... I still really want one!!!

Nice shots! Thanks for sharing!

Geez those lumes are impressive! I wasn't a fan of the Ploprof when I joined the forum but it really started to grow on me! Those pictures are, as always, great!

Hi Carl. Its always nice to have your comments. You really should try one on, they "wear" a lot better than you'd think. I find mine very comfortable especially with the mesh bracelet ..... it "gives" a lot. And another Lum shot in close.

I am afraid thatis not going to be possible. I sold it last weekend. I had a great offer that I could not refuse, so I am afraid it is now gone. I am Looking for another one soon though, may be the chrono version or some other gold Omega, I will do my homeworks soon. Notice my signature has changed

I just said it in another thread and I will quote myself:

"of the Omega divers, the PloProf 1200 is my grail, although I know I can never pull it off :( (neither for its price nor size+weight..i even find my Certina diver, weighing 180 grams, heavy)..but I would love to occassionally wear it and see it on all other days as a thing of sheer beauty "

just showed your pics to my brothers and everyone LOVES it...great pics of a great watch

Not my kind of watch, but those photos are superb! Somebody will see them and decide they can't live without one.
