Have been wearing a SubC for a while now and recently added this guy to my collection. I think Omega did a great job on this piece. I understand some aspects of it aren't for everyone, but I really like what they did with it. I have had a Quartz SM for about 10 years now, and have been into Rolex mostly, but this piece has got me back interested in Omega. Just thought I would share and join up with this forum.
Nice choice! How does it stack up with your Rolex divers? I think the bracelet is superb and I like the clear back too. Is it louder or quieter than a Rolex? Mine rings like a bell at night.
Love the clear case back on this one. It wears higher on the wrist than my SubC, and even though it is 1mm larger it wears smaller than the 40mm SubC. I like the PCL's, but only because my other pieces don't have them. I don't like the bracelet as much as the Rolex, and the micro adjustment is not nearly as good as Rolex's glidelock. Overall this stacks up pretty well with the SubC IMO. What I like about this one is that it has everything that my SubC doesn't. Vintage look, PCL's, clear case back....
There is something about this watch that draws me in and creates a feeling of nostalgia. Beautfiul watch. planet ocean 2201.50.00
Man, every time I see one of these, I want one. I don't have any divers and I'm worried I would...go a bit overboard. Can you have just one diver? Edit: and welcome to the forum! Your watch distracted me from that.
Thanks everyone for the welcome. Had intentions of having a variety of types of watches in my collection, but I just came to the realization that I liked diving watches too much to only have one, two, now three....
