i read elsewhere (but now cant find it) that it is possible to change the bezel from orange to black and vice versa- you buy a whole new bezel as opposed to the insert and swap them, aparantly it was not too expensive and would add a nice feature to watch- but i still love the orange before someone starts

I'm sure your OMEGA AD would be able to help you out on this one, Sam....give him a call!!!

My AD (two ADs actually) tried that and they said that Omega said no.

Very Very posible. I am looking for a black PO to buy soon then buy a spare full bezel in orange to switch around incase i get tired of the black. You just have to find the right AD/store that can order them.
PM me ill send you a link to where you can order one online...(not sure if im allowed to post the link here i would if i could)

good luck

You guys must bear one thing in mind!!

The orange bezel PO comes with orange numbers at 12, 6 and 9, whereas the black bezel PO comes with white numbers.

Now, if you fix an orange bezel on the black PO, you'll find that the numbers won't quite match up with the bezel.

Just a thought!!

JJ is right...or what you can do is get a 2201.51? i think which is the PO with orange numbers and change that around if you dont like the white number on orange...heres a quick pic
