The seamaster planet ocean ultra deep professional

“Like the submersible, OMEGA’s Ultra Deep was built to last: designed for multiple dives and not just a single shot at the world record”



Cool engineering!

A PO minus the awful HE valve, crown guards and minus a date makes a great looking watch! Beaten Rolex by 20 metres!

42mm is good, but it’s very thick. There are some Instagram shots today and it looks thicker than a deep sea!

This is where the "human wearable" part kicks in ...

Interesting though. A deep sea equiv.

Yes it is a feat of engineering.

What I like is the look that could be made for the average watch enthusiast, minus the thickness. I like the blue and the strap

Thats actually really gorgeous. Tough for me now to decide between the planet ocean and the planet ocean ultra deep.

I like the watch and would buy it in a regular production piece from 42-45 mm and lose the thickness and some depth ability that is not needed for the average wearer.

I got to try out both* variants of Omega's Ultra Deep the other day - very impressive examples of heavy-duty tool watches
But at the end of the day, a bit more duty** than I really need. My two Omega SM300s, a 41mm SM300MC & a 42mm 165.0324, do the job just fine

*the Ti version has a more unique appeal but the NATO adds unneeded height, aesthetically speaking whereas the steel sits quite naturally on the wrist

**... & heavy, especially the steel case on the steel bracelet
