I had the good fortune of joining the "Treasure of Planet Ocean" trip with Omega Thailand the past weekend. Members of the press and a number of boutique customers boarded the one and a half hour flight to the southern island province of Phuket just above...  

Very cool trip and watch ...

What wonderful way to get your beautiful PO GMT. Very tempting watch. Shame that the weather was not up to the party. Congratulations, Nilo

Weather was bad but at least it did not rain on the party.

Thanks for looking. I hope to share more pics of the watch soon. Ruckdee

You have me dreaming....

about the watch and the location. Hard to beat either. What wonderful post. Thank you for taking us with you. Kind regards Bill

My pleasure to share. About the location...

...we are not a big country but there are so many more choices even the locals cannot visit them all. I will show more on the Timeout forum when I have the opportunity to travel next. Thank you. Ruckdee

I agree. It could not have been more special.

You may be surprised but this is my first mechanical GMT watch after all these years in the buying circles. But as you may suspect from my activity elsewhere, the second dual timezone watch is looming on the horizon ;) Ruckdee

Khap khun kaap, I need me a beach holiday!

Thanks for a great report!

Your Thai language skill will get you a long way to any destination.

Omega Thailand knows how to look after their VIP customers. Love your watch macros. Seriously, your post and pictures are worthy of being published in a watch magazine, hopefully in the OMEGA magazine. Just back from travels and you have to remind me abou... 

They may be nice to look at but upon closer scrutiny you will see...

...that my photographs are not of the level worthy of publication. But anyway, I must thank you for appreciating my contribution to this small community. More on this watch later. Ruckdee

I wouldn't be surprised if . . .

I must work super hard these two weeks though...

...in anticipation of a ridiculous credit card bill I will soon get ;) Everything was perfect. I just wish there was one more night to spend by the beach. Flying in and out so quickly was a waste of the airfare in my opinion. But then again, to allow the ... 

What a post!!!

Dear Ruckdee, I can only but congratulate you on another achievement! This new Planet Ocean GMT looks great by itself, but even better on your wrist! Congratulations!!! May that GMT be set to many different time zones in your future travels! Thanks for sh... 

Your wish, Alex, is exactly what I wanted to hear.

Beginning from next year, you will see I share fewer watches and more trips. Thank you very much for the compliments and for the well wish on my future travel opportunities. Ruckdee

Hopefully, you will make it to "this" side of the Pacific...

It would be great to meet up! Keep me posted. Have a great weekend, Ruckdee! Alex

Stunning coverage!

I should have shout out for you! Kong

Would I be correct to assume that you were there?

 
 By: Ruckdee : May 18th, 2013-19:46
I noticed there were a number of international guests at the event. If you were there, then it is a shame we did not get to meet. The fat guy with POC 9300 on wrist and Sony RX100 compact camera strapped around the neck would be me. Ruckdee

Yes...

 
 By: Kong : May 21st, 2013-10:43
I was there... couldn't locate you in my photos ... got a feeling we could at one time, standing side by side :-) I am preparing another report soon. Kong

Super!!

A marvelous experience and the best way to receive your new wonderful watch!!! Congratulations!!!! I love blue dials watch, this is very tempting, I must wait it to come to Mexico. This is a pic of my Titanium PO Kind regards, Armando ...  

I am sure the GoodPlanet will go well with your other blue watches.

Its shade of blue is somewhat deeper than your Titanium Liquidmetal and not as light and reflective as your Skyfall. I can imagine the three of them and more friends on the side already. Ruckdee
