Impressions thus far - it feels big - like a 37 or 38 rather a 34 mm width, it makes a pleasing thud when I move and it has a strongly defined appearance - probably the effect of the wide lugs. It is holding time well too, not always to be taken for grant... 

Great! Have a very nice weekend. Francois

This is not my first Planet Ocean. I had another that was "removed" from me. Time passes and here we are ...me and a PO again. Simple, pedestrian to some, but a great watch. I love the overall design and the movement (Co-Axial escapement). Today I'm weari...

I started with a Memomatic (that belongs to the Seamaster line) and I'm ending with a P.O. The Memomatic is here: wristscan.watchprosite.com / Cheers, Nilo

The PO is for sure a future Omega icone Hagwe

Seduce the judges... And what could be better than one with a lot of sentimental backdround? HAGWE, All. Nicolas...

Well, a small dose of corruption is always good, too, even though not in the Napoleon Code. Best, my friend. Nicolas.

Over the Atlantic? Napoleon 's rules were not at all what you portray, I actually start to believe you wish Napoleon was Anglo! Cheers, no bad feelings Francois

. . . more difficult to prove innocence than to disprove guilt. Since our Nicolas is a defense attorney, he has a higher bar to overcome than his American counterparts, no? And as for Codes, I'm really more of a Hammurabi guy ;-) . . . This message has be... 

Also I concur totally with the presumption of innocence (as did Napoleon!) I am not so sure about the Lex Talionis though! Have a great weekend. Kind regards, Francois

Anglo Saxon Islands? Best from... Sainte Hélène.

but before that he was exiled to Elba, where the famous English palindrome " able was I ere I saw elba " was coined. Cheers,dreamer This message has been edited by dreamer8 on 2012-06-03 07:32:51

hey dreamer, thats so famous a palindrome that i’ve never heard of it. what an uncouth uneducated fellow i am

G. I happen to like history due to my late Dad and that was something I remembered my Dad telling me many moons ago. I should have said an obscure English Palindrome instead of famous. Enjoy your great holiday Queen Elizabeth Jubilee celebrations. My Dad ... 

perfect with that elegant yet sporty RO. Good luck tomorrow. TM

And a beautiful companion..! HAGWE Blomman

. . . Sunday afternoon when Ken was visiting . . . timeout.watchprosite.com . . . but I'm wearing it today and into next week, Blomman. It is the most special watch of my small collection . . .

I would love to hear the story! Small collection...? You mean small in perspective of the size of your watches (34-39mm), yes? Because if I am not counting incorrectly.... You have a big and beautiful collection, my friend! Best Blomman

. . . in person, blomman; it is that remarkable. As for my collection, I only meant relative to some others here, like Cazalea, who has more watches than I have hairs on my head!

Today's watch - not long ago, I was enjoying a similar moment with my gold Parking in the sun! HAGWE Blomman...  

. . . from last Sunday. Green grass in Sweden, wild flowers in California, all nurtured by the sun . . ....  

... SoCal is the place to be! It has been over 10 years since my last visit. I will have to make a change of that! Love your pic - "Blomman" in Swedish="The Flower" Best Blomman

Actually, since I started wearing spring drives, I don't worry about accuracy any longer ;-) When I got the Izul I clocked it and it was dead on after 10 days, so after that....

All I hear is the rotor winding the mainspring...

I love these angular shapes a lot! In this condition, this Connie is just awesome. Best, Hermano. Nicolas

... as a matter of fact Connies are my favorite Omegas, though they are not so easy to find down here. Have a nice week end in lovely Paris, mi querido amigo! Un fuerte abrazo, Abel.

. . . he's been trying to find a pristine Connie for ages!

But Abel's one is very tempting. Cheers, Nilo

. . . beyond mere taste and aesthetic appreciation for the appearance of steel. It's not just a matter of preference . . .

... that floating Omega symbol on the acrylic. It's one of my favourite subtle features of thes bintage Omega's. And you capture it beautifully. Lovely Connie. Warm regards Andrew

... detail of the floating Omega symbol on the plex, is a so charming feature. Have a nice week end, and receive my best cordial regards! Abel
