Key Points from the Discussion

The Omega Ploprof's substantial build quality is a recurring theme among owners, often described as feeling like a 'tank on the wrist,' which significantly contributes to the wearing experience and enjoyment.
The OEM bracelet is frequently highlighted for its ability to perfectly balance the Ploprof on the wrist, though some owners occasionally switch to the OEM rubber strap for variety.
A notable engineering feat of the Ploprof chronograph is the ability to operate its pushers underwater, a feature that distinguishes it from many other dive chronographs on the market.
Some collectors, like Dr No, have historically considered the Ploprof but opted to wait for other significant Omega releases, such as the 60th-anniversary Railmaster or the Ultra Deep, demonstrating strategic collection planning.

I occasionally switch to the OEM rubber strap but always go back to that bracelet because it balances the watch perfectly on the wrist. Looks so good in blue👍.

I love this watch! Have you tried it on the Omega blue rubber strap?

I heard the chrono pushers can be operated underwater. It is so well built. No word from GO yet about the new blue Spezimatic chrono diver and whether the pushers can be used underwater. I’m guessing not. That was very high on my list but no longer.
