I have a 42mm PO (blue, titanium) and love it! In my collection I have several Rolex (including a Sub), JLC, Patek, etc. But I keep wearing my PO. Simply an amazing piece. Beautiful, robust, accurate, and different than the “standard” Rolex everyone gravitates to. Highly recommended!

A beautiful watch. I would have one if it weren't for this one. Wears so nice, especially on that blue rubber strap with white stitching.

I got the 37.5 titanium PO and I couldn't agree more it has a design pulled from omegas great history that differentiates it from the sub. Absolutely love mine.

I just saw the titanium 42 mm blue PO. I have a Sub as well and this PO is absolutely marvelous (and priced at a bargain by comparison).

I own an older PO. I love it. Had it for 12 years, now gone in for it's first service. I like the review, I watch these all the time. I could not help noticing immediately that the font used on these numerals is close to IDENTICAL to that used by Glasshutte on their SeaQ Panorama date, as well as the smaller SeaQ!

I found your contents by accident, appreciate all the details you put into the video. I'm looking for mine still and hope to find it one day.

Well done, Dan!! I can see a marked improvement over your first video. Both the video quality and your commentary have improved immensely. You sound a lot more calm and confident. It's like your sitting in the pub telling your mate about the PO over a beer. It makes it very easy to listen to you. Thanks for the great review and, as usual, looking forward to seeing what you have for us next time.

@@Jay-xr3sb Hi Jay. The reference number for the strap is 98000364 Phone your nearest Omega boutique and they will see you right. You'll also need to order a deployant clasp. The one on mine is 94521833 although they've released others that would fit since then.

An exceptional piece. I’ll treat myself one day. Great video again. ALC.

Thanks mate. Yep you must when the time is right.

Good informative video, I’m in the process of buying the same model, I used to own PO 2008 non ceramic, just dropping out a Sub to fund it & put a couple of quid away lol, can’t wait for it to arrive.

Your video just made my day. Bought the exact same watch not long after it was released and is my 2nd longest owned watch after a 2007 Seamaster Diver 300. Only changed to the rubber strap recently as I had lost 35 kg and the bracelet was just to hefty for my slimmer wrist. Your assessment is spot on. While the helium valve is more of a novelty for most of us, to me it does balance the overall symetry. The slightly wider right side would look to pronounce without the helium escape valve on the left side IMHO.

You. aren't the first owner of this watch that I've come across whose owned it for many years. It has a certain something that helps it remain in a collection. I was a bracelet wearer too until I slimmed down. Love it on OEM rubber though. So comfy and looks very good too. I get the symmetry point, but I prefer watches without them :-)

Now that is a thing of rare beauty, great vid

They have a certain something for sure. Omega make one suitable for pretty much everyone too.

I bought this same watch new and still have it in my collection. It's a great watch and highly sought after on the second-hand market. There isn't a time when I'm wearing it, that I don't get an offer to sell it. I alternate on different straps, but I mainly wear it on a crocodile leather strap and it looks FANTASTIC!!

Excellent review man I have the titanium liquid metal 37.5mm and wears like a dream on a OEM rubber strap bracelet is a little too thin. But the premium feel of the planet ocean is amazing. Like you said it pulls from the 1957 300 and I think that was the peak of sports watch design. Love how they have dresses them up now as well a building up the tool watch side with the new ultra deep. Omega is hitting both dressy and sports crowd but I think this is an excellent in between 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Great presentation. Superb watch. Thanks for sharing.

Nice review, your PO 2500 liquid metal is beautiful and more rarely seen, I have the 42mm PO 2500C from 2009 with matte black dial/black bezel and white tri arabics " love the open 6 and 9 font" and I've only grown to appreciate this design more over the years as I feel it has a more elegant and understated toolish look compared to the newer shinier 8500/8900 models, now I know the newer version are technically superior and they are awesome watches but to me the 2500 has so much more of a direct design lineage from the classic Seamasters of the late 60's while still being a modern built dive watch, it's a timeless design that I'm happy to own, it'll always be in my possession.

Thanks Chris. She's certainly stood the test of time as it were.

I’ve owned mine for almost 10 years now - and worn it almost daily. Pictures/videos don’t do this piece justice - you just can’t capture the vividness of the black gloss. I can tell you, this watch draws more eyes than many much more expensive watches - and that applies to both people in the know and laymen.

I wish the current POs were closer to the 14mm thickness like those one.

What is the model number of the OEM rubber strap and deployment clasp?

Very interested once you list this up for sale!

Agreed, but I've owned it for so long and maybe a change is due.

Gday very nice review. I do beg to differ that the thickness is attributed to the 600m water resistance. I have the first gen PO and it is a pretty slim piece given its 600m water resistance. Not sure why your LE is thicker as it still has the 2500c movement in it!

@TheSurreyWatchGuy

3 жыл бұрын

Thanks for the comments. It has the same case as a regular 2500 PO. It is slim for 600m WR, but I find them a thick watch regardless. Still a great watch though.

Have you tried doing a side by side comparison to the 1st generation 42mm planet ocean? If yes, which one do you prefer? The matte dial & bezel of the 1st generation or this one with the glossy dial & bezel?

@TheSurreyWatchGuy

Yep I had the orange bezel 2500. Back then in 2010 i was a huge fan of gloss so the LE was way nicer in my eyes. Nowadays I'm not so sure. No wrong choice. Buy what YOU like most 😃
