PloProf just in today :-)
I went to one of my local AD's last Saturday to inquire about the Zenith 1/10th of a second Chrono that was introduced in Basel this year - while I was there I thought I had to try on a watch that I wasn't sure about just judging from the pictures - well to make a long story short, I ended up picking it up just a couple of hours ago...May I introduce a behemoth of a watch also known as Omega Seamaster PloProf - Plongeur Professionel for those of you who were wondering about the name 
The watch is built like a tank and despite its hefty weight incredibly comfortable on the wrist.
Now on to the pictures:
and finally some wristshots:
cheers and thanks for reading!

Congrats, Rupert! I believe you're the third . . .
. . . or possibly fourth forum participant with a 1200 M. One of the more intriguing aspects of the Ploprof is it's uncanny ability to appear aesthetically appealing on smaller wrists where other large watches look garish. Objectively, it's way too large ...
Thanks Art!
we seem to have similar wrist sizes ;-) I never thought the PloProf would look good on my wrist, but once I put it on I loved it. I have tried many oversized watches among them the IWC BP and while I love that watch it just looks out of place on my wrist ...
This Plo Prof is a surprising watch, Rupert.
Not that it is an aesthetical watch, but it has a lot of presence, strenght and ...Charm. A real toolwatch. I love a lot your lume shots, showing the blue luminova glowing. Best, congrats and thanks! Nicolas
Thanks Nicolas!
I couldn't agree more - pretty or beautiful are not words that come to mind with the PloProf, words like masculine, indestructible and so on suit it much better cheers and thanks Rupert
I can feel your enthusiasm. Because I felt (still feel) exactly the same way...
...when I was first got my hands on my Ploprof. It has been a great joy wearing this chunky, love-it-or-hate-it watch. I used to wear my Panerai Luminor 176 and IWC GST Aquatimer regularly before the Ploprof but not anymore afterwards. Congratulations on ...
Thanks Ruckdee
I have yet to see one on a big wrist...seems like it is perfect for smaller wrists cheers Rupert
