the new one in metal.

What shall I say? It feels like a real "tool" watch and is well done.

It is not my style of watch, but I can totally understand if someone falls in love smile

Thanks Bill for sharing you comparison with us which was much more interesting after seeing the new one in metal.

Part II of the 600 M and 1200 M comparison

 
 By: Bill Sohne : June 30th, 2009-22:59
Hello everyone..Well my photo essay was cut short when my 600m stem broke. I want to thank the group of watchmakers at the NYC Omega boutique they were able to get the crown to screw down. I have gotten emails asking about the case side by side comparison...  

You must be having a ball comparing the original with . . .

the 1200m is indeed a true modern interpretation of a classic Omega. i wonder how many will actually be used for diving? Graham

Actually, I think more than a few will. They did a great job on this one. I look forward to seeing a live one as soon as they start to populate the local ADs.

Satisfying conclusion to a great article, Bill!

The new PloProf is very, very attractive. It is one of the watches that I definitely want to try on my wrist. Thanks for the thorough and most interesting write-up comparing these two watches. Cheers, Daos

Bill, Thank you for both post 1 and post 2....

Your side by side comparison not only educates but allows one to easily see the evolution of the model. Unfortunately, it has also whet my appetite for the Ploprof. I've been attempting to avoid but not it may be impossible. Ktown

I love these comparison posts between the re edition and the original!
