Hi, everyone.

It's been a while since I posted, but I have a goodie today (mostly for me :D )

A while ago i had a look at the PO at an AD, but I thought it was just too bulky. In the mean time, the PO has popped up in my thoughts from time to time. So I figured, if I can get used to the bulk of a ling, then I'll try the PO. So I did.

I've only had it for a couple of days, but so far it seems very nice. I'll post some more in-depth comments after having used it some more. Anyone else have this piece?

Here's a pic:

Probably one of the only Omegas i'd ever own. Fantastic piece!

Congratulations, great watch.

I've got the Orange, bought it with the bracelet, then bought the OEM rubber with Deployant.

Love it.

Wow, it looks great on that strap. Which do you prefer, strap or bracelet?

Good to see you took the plunge! After a month every other watch will feel so small and light lol.

Orange for me too. Always cheers me up! If they hadn't made the orange I'd have gone for the ceramic and titanium model.

It's thicker and actually weighs more than the DSSD, think it's around 225g sized to my wrist.

I like both but my preference is the rubber strap.

The orange stitching is great with the orange POC.

I have got to admit, it looks better than the 3 hand version. I absolutely adore the orange influence here as well. Enjoy your new watch.

I personally think the Planet Ocean XL is the PERFECT size!

Where it in good health! Congrats!

Lately, my PO has been my "Go To" watch. I've gotten more compliments on it than all my others combined.
