Icon14 First Omega In Da House, What a Beauty!!

Ok my Peeps, like most of you, we tend to favor the Rollie models for our addiction but the new Omega PO Master Chronograph in Steel & Sedna 18K Gold with its Blue Ceramic Bezel/Dial really sang to me. Ref.215.20.46.51.03.001.

At 45.5mm it's perfect for my 7.5" wrist, but not for everyone since it is a beefy, in-your-face piece of beauty. Love the open case-back that shows the new Calibre 9900 engine, which btw is spot on and can definitely hang with the "other" brand. Lume is killer and like the fact that the Sedna gold portion of bracelet is also brushed and not so easily scratched like my Bluesy.

It's not a piece that you will see often in the wild, which adds to the attraction, so overall it's a WINNER in my book, which after-all is what counts!!

Thanks for looking and Peace my Peeps,

Maarten

Thx AP, it is a nice touch that Omega incorporated, also their subtle polished/brushed effect on case!

Very nice, an impressive timepiece. Reminds me why I still like my PO 2500 caliber, although yours is a couple of generations beyond. Enjoy it.

Copy that Jack!! Omega doesn't get the street creds it deserves, which makes this baby even more special in the wild. Had a few WIS guys say "damn, nice piece, what is it? lol"

Such a beauty. A divers, a chronograph, and a date.
This is what I would consider a complete watch. Something you can bring to the ends of the earth.

Thx 69, neither am I, but this piece sang to me and now that I've done some research and had the PO on the wrist for a while, I'm converted!! Omegas are just as good as the "other" brand, with the exception of their resale value!!
