·Hello all!
Took possession of my 43.5mm Planet Ocean 8900 and I’m in love (been staring at it all day). Love the weight and proportions of the watch and with my gorilla wrist, I did not need to remove any links on the bracelet…I put it on straight out the box and it fit.
I stressed over picking the dial color as I was torn between Black and Blue. Blue was my first favorite but as I got close to ordering I started to see some amazing pics of this watch in Black. Though conflicted, I went with the Blue and am super excited with this darker/duller shade of Blue that can appear Blackish in certain lighting (and a more vibrant blue in other lighting). I was concerned the Blue might be too loud/bright in neutral lighting and that over time I would not like it. But that is not the case. Tried to color match the blue and the closest I could come Space Cadet Blue (see pic).
I’ll wear it on bracelet 90% of the time but I still want a nice strap for a change of pace. Does anyone know the reference number for the 21mm OEM Blue leather Alligator strap?
Thanks for looking and reading, now it’s time for me to get back to my watch honeymoon.
