    Hi friends

    This PO is offered locally and I have a question about it as the seller (unauthorized dealer) seems not to know much about Omega.. when I asked him about case size he said 44mm which I believe is not a valid size for PO !

    I want to know the expected size of this model (black dial with orange numerals).. I did a quick research and observed that this color combination came only in 42mm (older models) and 45.5mm (new models).. I haven't seen it in 43.5mm model without the quarter bezel in orange.. I am going to check the watch in person today but I just want to get expectation about what I am going to see.. I hope it is 42mm as it is my perfect size.. if it is 45.5mm it would definitely too big !

    That looks like the 2nd gen with the 8500 movement. If so it's a 42mm but a bit thicker than the original 2500 movement.



    Someone can correct me I'm wrong. Nice watch!

    I agree that 45.5 is a big boy. I have the 39.5 but the 42 hits the sweet spot for a lot of people.
