·I like it - but the date function is something I actually use almost everyday. I hope they release a version with a date function soon.

·I always found very weird the idea of a luxury blingy dive watch like the Sea Dweller. Somehow luxury and dive just don't match in my head. This new Planet Ocean is too luxury to make sense to me, even more than the previous generation. But I know many people like those luxury dive watches and I'm sure there will be a big market as it seems to be a beautiful watch.

I think they changed it too much what we used to know. It looks like mini version of the bigger one with 6000m, but let's be honest 6000m looks better, but I dont think it's better what they did before.
The salesman told me there were more complaints from people who already own or owned previous PO's, while enough positive opinions from others.
Where is the date? Where is the HEV? Case back is awful, polished bracelet 👎for tool watch. New design is always a compromise. The compromise here was to reduce thickness and to reduce weight. New watch is lighter, after few links removed I think it would be around 165-170gr.

·Dive watches aren’t necessarily on my radar but if you tell me this one is on the thinner side of watches with the same depth rating that would grab my interest.

·I agree, I understand the complaints about the extension clasp but at the same time, they are overstated. If you're using a full extension over a wetsuit, nobody is going to see it. And if you are using a full extension in any other case, you need to just add a link.
Many manufacturers have already solved this.
But Omega's diver clasps always reveal an ugly <mechanism> when extended.

·Just for comparison, the sub is definitely less bling bling.

·My eyes are always immediately drawn to the short center link that integrates with the case. That's the only part of the watch that I don't like. Not sure how to describe it, but it looks off to me.

··Seamasters Forever@Mam @cerberus63 if either of you have calipers, can you get us a true bezel measurement (say from 2 o'clock to 8 o'clock?) I was thinking this would share general bezel dimensions with the Speedmaster, but seeing images of it side by side with other watches it looks just a touch bigger- approximately the size of a sub bezel. I'm wondering if it is "actually" a 40.2-40.4mm watch at the bezel?
Anyway- congratulations on your watches. Keep those pictures coming!

I suck with Photoshop, but here's my attempt:

That would be awesome.
With your photoshop skills, would you be willing and able to mock up the blue bezel black dial one—with brushed center links?
Thanks in any case—I’m dying to visualize that configuration.

·The more I look at the watch, the more I like the proportions of bezel vs. dial. The small dial with larger bezel was probably a good choice design wise.
