    Hey all,

    I had my camera in store today, so used it to take some pictures of my favourite divers! On show is the 42mm 232.30.42.21.01.001 and the 45.5mm Chrono 232.30.46.51.01.001, as well as my trusty 3570.50 for comparison

    No waffle, just photos :thumbsup:

    There is something about that colour of bezel , I don't know what it is but I like it .
    P.S. to my American friends , that is the correct spelling of colour :p

    Just the lights in the dealer showroom Chris works at reflecting in the polished metal parts.

    Which version did you order?

    Hi Dsio.I ordered the 232.30.46.51.01.001 PO Chrono steel strap silver 12 hour. What do you guys think about rubber straps? Versus leather,not sure how leather would fit with this model.Thanks,Horst

    The new rubber straps Omega have come out with for the new Planet Oceans are really superb, feel very nice on. I'd definitely recommend one!

    Thanks for reply.I did purchase a black rubber strap with orange stiching and deployment buckle (both Omega original),and was pleasantly surprised at quality,style and weight difference.Would definitly recommend as well.I would also suggest the purchase of a springbar tool.(Providing you are good with your hands and carefull).Horst

    I also ordered the black rubber strap without orange stitching for my PO Chrono 9300 with deployment buckle. I wore the steel strap for a while at work but really like the rubber strap better. Saves the steel strap from getting beat up and wears much lighter. Definitely like the look better though with the steel band.

    Got some pics on the black rubber? It'd be interesting to see it on orange too

    I love the introduction of a 2 register chrono by Omega. I especially love the use of the orange plongeur hand on the register at 3. Just beautiful! Congrats on the order.:thumbsup:
