First inception almost 20 years ago if I’m not mistaken. By now a classic PO reference , enjoy!

Yes, indeed!!!

I also think like you: now it's become a classic in itself with roots in the Seamaster 300. Thanks for your comment. René

Con mucho gusto, hermano.

Thanks dear Reuben.

I agree totally with you. Watches are emotions put into a beautiful object! With inspiration from its past, but a new line in itself. Thanks for looking! René

Thanks dear Ping

It was a long deliberation to decide which diver to get. At the end it was the good looks and the value what decanted me to this watch, and I have never regretted of having taken this decision. Best regards. René

Thumbs up to you. Cheers. 👍

At first I was tempted to buy the larger one. Then I had the chance to check them both at the shop and was absolutely sold for the "small" one. It fitted my wrist better. Yours looks so good on you! Thanks for sharing. René

Thank you Nasseriq, I agree with you

The first generation chronos . . .

. . . were cool, too. [photo credit: Dr No, 2009] There were technical innovations and improvements in succeeding generations, but the appearance of the first crop was riveting. Art ...  

Hello dear Art!

Not only they were innovative, but also had a significant presence on the wrist, with a great finishing. You had one? Best regards. René

No, never had an Omega diver of any kind, much less a PO, René . . .

. . . but a compact pre-Bond is still on my long-term acquisition list. (I'd be up for a vintage Eterna KonTiki, too.) Art

You are a classic my dear Art!

I'm sorry for the late answer. I also like vintage Eterna-Matic Kontiki watches. They are so under appreciated. Best regards. René

Agreed, René. This is a fantastic watch. Here's my favorite part.

But the front isn't so bad either. ...  

Hello CR, the beautiful case back!

Ohhhh, this is the cherry on top of the cake! A hidden treasure! I use to caress it when taking out my watch because it feels so good! I also love when that sea monster gets marked on your skin. Thanks for your comment. René
