Got my Planet Ocean today. Very happy with it even on my little wrist! The box and certificate wallets have seen better days, mind!

And people wonder if having the "complete set" adds value. In this case, I don't think that box and wallet add anything! In fact, if I were buying from you and you mailed me that junk, I'd want some money back!. 😀

At least the watch looks fantastic. Enjoy.

Is it possible to get a new box and wallet?

no. If you really want one, you’ll have to find ones in better condition for sale on EBay. I’d just toss them and not worry about a “full kit”. I’ve never understood the point once the watch is out of warranty, unless it’s a special box. And those are far from special!

Who cares.

You have a great watch. Wear it and enjoy it.

I can't remember how many watches I bought in a shop, and when the shop person asked if I wanted the box I just looked at them and said "No, I just want the watch thanks".
It's a bit like buying a jacket and the person asking "Do you want the plastic coathanger with that Sir?".
Times have changed though 🙄.

This is a great looking watch. It was definitly used but it looks good. The 2500 movement 45.5mm are not as popular as the 42.5mm. Nevertheless they are great watches and the best looking POs in my opinion. The Bond PO was 45.5mm.
For a watch that age, you should check the accuracy for a while. It is never to early for a service.

It was serviced by Omega before I bought it. Have the docs for that.

I don't understand why they make it out of that crappy "textile" material when they know how bad it ages. It's been like that for at the past 35 years.

Anyhow, lovely watch 😀. Enjoy!!!

Congratulations, it’s spectacular! Don’t worry about the watch vs. wrist size- just call it more wrist presence! I own the same watch and it has received more spontaneous compliments from non-watch nerds than any watch I own.

Congratulations with this watch. The PO is definitely a great watch, also to try on different straps. Will make it feel like a totally different watch.
