I also joined club
Imported a mint one from Germany. Love it
Just seen one sell on eBay for £4500, or 7000 dollars.. Incredible
The manager of my local omega boutique in London told me that the liquid metal ltd edition will become one of the most collectable omegas in his opinion

I got mine on June 27th, but it looks like the guy above your post got one in early July.

When I was in Vegas, the lady there (omega boutique) had sold the last new one in the company and that was in late June.

Other than Omega LEs issued in the low hundreds, few, if any, have been sellouts. With the PO LM LE, Omega seems to have hit a home run. Although initial sales were anything but brisk, seldom a week goes by that I am not asked if I would sell mine and if not, where might one be found.

I would tend to agree with the Boutique manager.

This sort of thing doesn't happen very often in our peculiar world where the word 'discount' is used all too frequently in my opinion.

I'm very happy with my PO LM LE and will be holding onto it for a bit longer mostly because there is very little available either in the Omega or Rolex camps which floats my boat more.....


....well maybe the Explorer 2 Polar....but that's it!

Hi guys my ad has got hold of a LM PO, is it worth buying considering the new titanium LM is in regular production
Also is the dial ceramic in the Lm 42mm or just shiny than the normal po

Depends on you if it's worth buying. Yes the dial is a ceramic as well. There are only 1948 of these made, the new one is just a 'standard' po and if I'm not mistaken, right at about 8k in price.

I agree ....it is up to you if it is worth buying....I have one and prefer it to the ti models. I am biased obviously as I totally love my watch. If you did not like it for some reason you should have no trouble selling it for pretty much almost what you paid for it.

My PO LM LE and polar 42 co-exist quite nicely:



These three are keepers and the core of my collection. Like you, nothing else "trips my trigger" in Omega and Rolex offerings. (Although I do have a "Schirra Speedy" on order.)

Wow thanks for the valuable input guys , i will have both the Lmpo 42 and the new 45mm ceramic bezel 8500 movt to compare between the tow but i am more inclined towards the ceramic dial of 42mm because not many watches come with ceramic dials that i know of

Did you get the Malaysian one off eBay?

If so, congrats (you beat my offer!)

Regretfully I can no longer control my itch and as I'm a one watch guy my PO LM LE has to go.

Don't judge me - It comes to all of us eventually.

Now to decide how best to do the deed.

Beautiful watch! Is this the only one they made with ceramic dial, or does the blue dial titanium LM PO have that too?

So beautiful.

Trying to source one in the US, if anybody has any leads let me know (especially in NY area).

There are a few available overseas, but customs would cost a few hundred dollars, so I'd love to find one on this side of the pond!

I will sure miss having them both with me, but alas I couldn't keep them both. I have already sold off one of them. This model is real beauty.. If the photos look good, the watch looks even better in the "flesh".
