    Hello vintage Omegaphiles-

    Sorry to bother you yet again—but if not here, where else should I ask? :)

    The trade deal for a 165.024 fell through, but a different person I know has a 166.0250 that he would like to trade. I know of the "Baby Ploprof" but never considered owning one until my recent vintage diver craze.

    I have not yet tried it on, but isn't it a fairly heavy watch for its size? Does it wear reasonably well? I know this is an original, not a Watchco special, so it is somewhat appealing to me. I think the minutes hand is a bit brighter than suggested by the photo BTW.

    What do the Baby Ploprof owners think about their watches? Thanks!

    Liked mine. Only complaint I hear is they are smaller than current watch trends.

    Mine is a Watchco on mesh, I don't have huge wrists (I describe them as wiry and immensely strong) and the watch to wrist size ratio is perfect.
