That's the price for the PO 8500? I think that here the price difference is more like 50% - roughly 4000chf vs 6000chf.


Ohhh I understand. That's a big difference.

In CHF the

232.30.46.21.01.003 is 4,920.70CHF

and

A1732024-B868-144A is 4,022.24CHF

The Omega piece would be my choice, it's almost like a Panerai, Rolex combination in one. The numbers remind me of Panerai, and the bezel reminds me a bit of Rolex.

I had a PO 2500 and a SOH 46 at the same time. Loved them both, but the PO won the contest on points.

With the new PO 8500, however, I don't think it's much of a contest any more.

Here's my 42mm version. It's a great watch. I have to say though, the SOH in a 42mm is beautiful also.

Couldn't you ask him to quote you a price with a discount? :D

Went to see my AD today and tried out the PO. Shouldn't have done that. What an incredible finish Omega has with these! The display caseback is frekkin' amazing! The dial, the bracelet wow! Pricetag without discount is $6 100 here. Not that awesome. Even though it's a good price if you consider all the new stuff. But $5 000 is a better price. I'll wait a little bit more before I take the plunge. It's either Omega PO or a pre-owned Rolex 116660 (Sea Dweller Deepsea) that tickles my buy-nerve at the moment.

OK, 'fess up. Who's the lone soul who voted for the SOH? I don't know that I've ever seen such a lopsided poll result on this forum. :lol:

I can think of one odd-ball who goes against the norm.

I hadnt even voted or clicked the results until you mentioned that. Thats what makes this forum so great. A breitling forum for sure, but people arent afraid to tell it like it is.
