A man’s watch. End of.

Visited my local watch shop today. He told me he recently sold a ploprof to a 70 year old women.

The woman was with her husband who was looking at Panerai and Bell and Ross watches. My buddy showed him the Ploprof and his wife was smitten. She bought the Ploprof for herself.

I just realized I never asked if the husband bought anything. I guess I was so impressed with the 70 year old woman wearing a ploprof.

Pretty badass.

That's the one you borrowed from another forum member to make the shoot. I knew it'd look good on your panda sized wrist.

Good luck to the owner trying to wrestle it off of you after filming. "Uh, Ash, it's been like six months, mate. When am I getting my watch back?"

I seriously love this watch, I think it’s probably my favorite modern Omega right now and it isn’t even mine, amazing piece with exceptional build quality. It was a level above other Omega models when it was made similar to the Hour Vision with a superior clasp and some really nice finishing touches and it holds up so well even over a decade later. The owner just got it and he was kind enough to let me borrow it for two weeks, but I do have to return it, he’s actually not active on the forum but is a mate I’ve known for years who also owns the 18k PO Chrono and the SAS Seamaster Pro I filmed previously.

I finally got to see the Summer Blue version in person and it was awesome. And also huge.
