Wow!
The Ploprof for me, please! This dial... But they are all looking very nice! Cheers Thomas
I need to check my eyes, I feel there is a legibility concern with the hands
On such a light dial.
All of them are gorgeous though IMO the star of the show
is the Ploprof. It comes with a size case reduced to 55 It’s big, as it has to be, though wearable (in the Ploprof way).
From the photos in the article I prefer the Aqua Terra, and the WT.
IMO they works best with the dial. In the Ploprof I miss the orange accents.
I love the Ploprof…
Having said that, it seems that it is entirely redundant when compared with the ultra deep. I can’t really find a single difference other than style. I love how the PP looks but I think if I had to rely on only one diving tool watch the Ultra Deep blows a...
I've been told to go to the south side of hell before . . .
. . . but six thousand meters underwater? That's a first!
Obviously bragging rights
(apparently Rolex couldn’t resist that temptation either) but more importantly bragging in a reasonably sized case. For me 18 mm is the thickest case that is practical… There are other makers with deeper ratings, but the case size is absurd. World record ...
Great new release!
Any shade of blue is awesome but the gradient blue really works, especially the PloProf! I remain very happy with this one... ...
Exactly my thoughts
I hope they release another ploprof with more traditional hands/colors!
All the variations are more or less attractive . . .
. . . but there's only one I find compelling enough to consider over their nominally standard brethren. [photo credit: monochrome] I'm not much for world timers in general; Omega's is the cream of the crop aesthetically among manufacturers, in my opinion,...
I'll get another new Omega . . .
. . . when you get a vintage Omega chronometer. Deal?
Here's an image of my ref 2366 . . .
. . . to whet your appetite. On my wrist at this very moment, Nicolas - how can you beat a vintage Ω chronometer? ...
The #1 problem with hunting a ref 2366 or 67 . . .
. . . is the difficulty in obtaining correct replacement parts. You almost have to find one that's fully correct; the days when you could go for a so-so example and correct issues at the back end are over.
Love the summer blue
The Aqua Terra is great but I already have one. I am excited for the 300 because this is the first time I have like its looks.
