I love my standard 2500 PO (2201.50) but these photos are tempting me to possibly "upgrade". I have yet to see LE LM PO in person but based on various photos, I prefer 2201's thicker inner ring trim on the bezel and deep black aluminum bezel. If there is one thing I do not like about 2201 is that the dial is looks dark grey in bright light, especially when directly hit by the sun, and would have preferred pure gblack.

anyone with experience with both, worth making the upgrade? is the ceramic bezel black or more like dark grey? really like the glossy dial on the LE LM PO.

I had both, and sold the LM LE PO, I still have the standard 2500 and would never sell that one, but I didn't bond with this one. It looks great in pictures, but for me it didn't work when I had it, Sold it on within a couple of months of having it. The dial was too shiny and in some light so were the numbers and wasn't always as legible because of the bling. Sold it and bought the 8500 instead, but the main reason I sold it was that it was not sufficiently different enough to the standard 2500. Congrats Efthi, does look great on you.

Yes it was a transition model so it is very similar to the original 2500... I had originally the uPO Chrono but always felt that went wrong on size selection and never really used the Chrono so as I grew older started to appreciate more on the simple design and smaller size 42mm... I love the LMPO and its features but for some people shinny is not working and this is totally understandable... thank you my dear, I would love to see your "never going to sell" 2500 [emoji4]

My only regret is what I let it got for, as new... the side by side probably shows more why I had to let one go. too similar. For me, I like the look of the standard for every day and all events, whereby the LMLE was more of a showy watch. Does that make sense? I like the way other people photograph that watch, but my photog skills are sadly lacking. I prefer the shine of your new black/orange PO, those pics always look brilliant. For some reason the dial on the new ones doesn't look as shiny as the LE?

Watch looking great, the 2500 was the all time perfect balanced PO designed!!! I am totally in love with it maybe I will get the pumpkin later on at 42mm again
Seeing them side by side I can tell that both looking gorgeous, its one on its own way, new dials are even more shiny and the AR on the crystal is just amazing!

I have the 8900 as well and shines like a star lololol


And side by side

Look great, I really like your 8900. I didn't like the Orange 2500, but this new quarter orange I really like. I saw one yesterday in the OMEGA boutique, and maybe the AR is different on these, but the dials on the new PO is much nicer to look at than the LMLE for some reason. Easier to read. And sufficiently different enough for your side by side... Enjoy that!

Thank you very much, it is indeed a gorgeous watch! If you look the black with silver numerals 8900 still has a "difficult" to read angle but it only takes a small rotation of the wrist to see it all shinny and easy to read of course. The Orange numbers are more visible though so this is the major difference and the nice orange vulcanized rubber part on the bezel insert

A bit out of topic, apologies. Any ideas why current PO GMT unlike PO, both 43.5, has no ceramic dial?
