I know it is all about what you, the owner, likes but curious to know what the general vibe of BSource is toward the Planet Ocean in general and this particular set up. Still not 100% sold on the orange bezel. I could see myself going with the black bezel, but it must have the orange numbers. XL size BTW.

You could always buy the shoes to compliment the Po :nana: :nana: . I happen to be a fan of the Orange bezel.

Yes , but I was referring to the orange bezel on the Po, An Orange bezel on a gmt, I think I just brought back up my Chipotle from earlier.

I love the orange bezel. When Breitling have tried that sort of thing it's been hideous but Omega have kept it stylish.

:yeahthat I like the Omega orange bezel. They went through a phase of being quite common, but I think that's waned a little now, and I think they're great looking pieces. Personally I don't like the orange numbers with the black bezel : I thin kthe black bezel model needs to be fully understated, with the orange numerals reserved for the orange bezel.... but that's just me.

My vote is with the Orange Bezel and matching deployment strap, i think it's the best combination, and of course you can always add a nice black rubber to set off a contrast.


then again it's your choice. orange and black, ........... :idea: .looks for that chocolate orange left over from Xmas

The strap pictured is rubber. One of the best rubber straps I ever had - looks like calf leather.
