New Planet Ocean 8500 Liquid Metal Titanium

I debated whether I should get the Planet Ocean 8500 Liquid Metal Titanium since I already had a regular Planet Ocean 8500 but I couldn't resist any longer. I had to have it and I think it's different enough for sure now that I have both. The blue is an awesome shade and it changes hue in different lighting. I got both the rubber strap and the bracelet just like I did with my other 8500 to change things up. I am a big Rolex fan but the PO 8500 at 45.5 MM is perfect for my nearly 8" wrist. Add the 8500 movement with clear case back and if you buy grey market like I do, you have an awesome watch for an awesome price. Super satisfied with these Planet Oceans.

Congrats on having both POs. Especially the TI. I wear mine of the super comfy rubber strap most of the time. Enjoy the pair!

Nice watch! The titanium PO is light as a feather. The blue rubber strap is really, really nice.

Congrats! Well done, sir. They're definitely different enough to have one of each.

I love mine too. Greetings from my 42mm..
