Just picked up a Planet Ocean 46 mm SS with Sedna gold and blue ceramic bezel and dial. Beautiful watch.
I have 2 Rolexes (last gen Daytona and DSSD JC) and honestly find my Omega to be far more aesthetically pleasing.

Happy to be part of the Omega family!

Very nice mate the Sedna gold looks awesome against the blue!

What made you take the step into Omega after being into Rolex enough to have a Daytona previously?

Rolexes are great, but I wanted to add variety and am not going to pay crazy prices for 2nd hand watches or be on so called “waitlist” forever. Bought mine new from AD just before insanity, btw. I stopped in the Omega shop and tried on a few watches and bought one. Such a novel experience. Lol.

No idea how the silly emoji made into my last reply. Pls disregard.

Indeed, being able to exchange currency for a watch in a store that has stock is a more enjoyable experience. Hopefully things get back to normal on the Rolex side before long.

The laughing/crying bear emoji is programed to appear whenever anyone writes "Rolex" or "waitlist".



And there it is...

The watch is beautiful! Did you manage to get it at a discount? It looks very solid, better than any Rolex
Were there better options for the strap in the watch?I bought here https://www.horusstraps.com/collections/omega. It seems that you can choose a better color scheme. But that's just my opinion😉
I'm thinking about what to present to a friend for his anniversary, I'm looking at similar watches👍

One of the things I like the different options out there is that there are options for different styles. For me, I like this strap option better than any of the bracket options from Omega for watches with Sedna gold.

You also have very good taste😉

Thanks. At first I wasn’t sure about the strap, but it matches nicely with bezel and dial and is super comfortable. That said, could likely swap out if wanted to.
