Seamaster Planet Ocean.. 8500 vs the 8900..Which would you choose?
My favorite watch in my small collection is the PO 8500, I also prefer it over the newer versions as i like the deep black dial and the matte black bezel. The master chronometer in the newer versions though is tempting! The 8900 in the photo is my good fr...
Nice post!
I didnt like the PO for a very long time, but since 7 month or so, i truly am in love. Your older version has more Bond feeling imo, which is a very good thing. The PO appeared very fast after its initial realease in the movies and this brings back some g...

The 8900 movement is exactly why I had to have the newer Aqua Terra, which I love but the PO still gets more wrist time..
Also great in the water photo above, thanks for sharing! -D-
