I remember that same dilemma 12 years ago -- Omega PO vs. Rolex (16660, for me)...
Feb 15, 2020,21:05 PM
I had a difficult time deciding, so thanks to the preowned market, I was able to solve for both. I am very partial to the PO on the bracelet, as it's incredibly comfortable and balanced. I also love the solid caseback and greatly prefer it to the newer, thicker version with the display back.

Planet Ocean strap change
By: renerod : February 9th, 2020-12:11
This watch is, to me at least, one of the more complete in terms of design, history or background, enjoyment and ability to dress up or down. It was bought after a long period of thinking about one watch for all situations. At the end it was a choice betw...
Así es mi querido amigo

También pienso que una de canvas verde militar le iría bien. Que opinas? Gracias por echar una mirada y feliz domingo! Un abrazo. René
Thank you Captain

Yes, I think the strap brings another character to the watch. Thanks for looking! René
Thanks dear Mike

You’re right, the reflections are not the best friends of this watch. You have to search for the right angles / lighting. But it is a sweet and enjoyable watch anyway. Thanks for looking! René
I have the same

It’s a fabulous watch and I didn’t want to own a watch everyone else did.
How do you like to wear it the most?
By: renerod : February 9th, 2020-19:40
Bracelet or straps? Well, I think there are many out there now, but it is a very enjoyable watch anyway Thanks for looking. René
Thank you very much my dear friend

As always your opinion is very kind. I would appreciate very much if you could share your sail cloth strap maker/brand. Since I would love to try as many looks for my watch. I tend to agree with you about the excessive amount of strap on some Natos, but t...
Hello dear Rene! Always my pleasure to share experiences...

... and experimenting with straps is an additional way of enjoying our watches. I’m sending you the link to the place I buy the sail cloth type straps. They are very well made and have good prices. Here some shots of my watches with these straps. I don’t ...
Un placer amigo René.

That’s a lovely watch
By: renerod : February 11th, 2020-23:03
Do you have pictures on different straps? Best. René
Yours was the best solution!
By: renerod : February 17th, 2020-12:25
And what a great shot that of the double wrist! I also love the bracelet and think it’s the best look, but sometimes I like some variation. Also I like more the solid case back with the beautiful engraving of the sea monster. It is a cult classic. I also ...

4 mm difference
By: myles721 : February 26th, 2020-15:15
The Chrono is 19mm to the 2500’s 15mm...19 is thick but the way it sits on your wrist is more like 17mm because of the inset display back. I like them both but the 2500’s minute hands lume bugs me as it looks too much like the hour hand in the dark which ...
That is a good feature that makes it more enjoyable
By: renerod : February 26th, 2020-20:46
Thanks for your kind answer. And yes, like you say, the similarity between the hour and minute hand could be a problem at certain circumstances. Like when you see the hour at 12 o clock 😬 But otherwise they are very visible. Best. René
