I am really having difficult time with this. Iur OB dont have the Orange-Black PO as the i had id from Factory directly via OB. So far they even dont know if they will get it or not.

My only chance was to send the one i have to Service Center for repair. Lets hope ot comes perfect otherwise i dont have other choice only to get the refund or take Black Version and i dont want the refund as i badly want the watch.

Huuh...What a situation !

Well, you can take the refund and put an order in for a new one.

It's relatively rare for Omega divers to have a partially colored 'coke' or 'pepsi' dive bezel - only the 1970s Seamaster 200 Poppy or Banana come to mind. In addition, black and orange rule. We've been designing a limited edition black and orange watch on the Dutch watch forums, and an early version also had this type of what I like to call Fanta or Harley bezel. Definitely that one!

Then you don't buy it. At these prices don't settle put of fear.your emotions are getting the best of you. If you where buying second hand yes, but new from the Boutique has to be new and in perfect condition.

Wise said! 😀

I will wait for the watch to arrive from the Service Center and will see. if it is ok, then will have it, if not then will take the refund and wait for the stock to be available or i will upgrade to Deep Black 😉

Yes it is. Never seen an episode, but it is a coincidental reference to the PO

Thanks Guys for the opinion ! 😀

Well now i need to think again about having the Orange-black PO for the following reasong:

1)- You cant use straps as you like since the color of the watch needs something matches it ,but in Black Version, Everything can suits it.
2)- Here our Official Dress is in White Color, Orange might be little abnormal with white..

Just thought about these now!....so i believe the Black version will be an Exact fit to the situation i am in 😀, but again this doesnt mean i have to ignore the Orange-Black one.

What you will do in such a situation?

Cheers

As far as the straps I used to wear my orange with a green strap and it worked. You can pretty much use anything from black strap to grey to....orange.

On the formal wear I would think a 43.5 ceramic bezel, antireflective glass thick as hell sub will stand out all by itself. The fact that it's black won't necessarily make it less present.

So my initial response remains the same.: if it's your only watch Black, if you have others and will wear it on rotation: orange.

Well, i have the PO 007 skyfall only now and had speedmaster long time back and has neen sold.

I do agree with you woth regards to variations as the black version will look same as 007 skyfall.

Then my only hope is the watch comes back with perfect condition as this will be my only option to have the Orange-Black one..

I'm not feeling the two tone bezel, unless it's on the gray dial, so I vote for the second one.

I like the orange but would get tired of it after awhile so would go with #2 black.
