which combo are you after? bezel/dial colour combo? leather strap? braclet? or mesh?

my sincere congrats in advance!
Thank you Eric

I love the rubber strap but I will go for bracelet and order the rubber strap later on,this will allow me to save some money

The chosen combo is this one :

Grey dial and orange numbers,it gives the watch a bit of color and makes it look different and less serious than my SD. Of course I like the classic version too,but let's keep it fun and fresh for this one without slipping onto a Rolex LV green extravaganza I've got burned out of in just 2 months

Although it sounds like you've already made your decision, I got a 42mm PO about a month ago and have found it very comfortable to wear. I think the bracelet fit may have something to do with it.

Excellent choice. Getting the rubber for an occasional change up keeps it feeling fresh.

It has to be one of the comfortable watches I own. The Omega mesh gives it a glove like fit .

Oh, and did I mention accurate?

There are some really great photographs on this thread, great stuff.

I wear my PO45 on steel and rubber, both of which are quite comfortable. When I first put it on I thought WOW its heavy, but after a few days I never noticed it.

I wear it 24/7 and only take it off to shower after which I give it a rinse under a tap and put it back on.

I would really feel undressed without it

I have had mine since friday, you do notice the weight initially. But you get accustomed to it, mine has only come off my wrist to do my HIT training and gym sessions. Apart from this it's been on my wrist 24/7. I already have the first 2 scratches and the lightest swirl on the clasp. But such is life.
