Thats a beauty, Pax. And did you get a shot of the "new style" mesh all opened up with the extension? It is a work of art. But it should be, I think it is a $500+ option... :?. Damn that Omega dial looks good...

I also noted that the watch has the word "Ploprof" engraved on the caseback. That will make it hard for the word to be used as a generic reference to any other watch of this style. Go Omega!

Thanks for sharing!

I missed the shot Ian, although the optional clasp was on the watch. Very cool diver's extension indeed!ThumbsUp02.gif

Hehe - never mind Pax. Just tell him you need to "borrow" his Ploprof for a coupla months to "research" the extension bracelet for an "article" woohoo.gif.

Is your buddy actually a watch-guy? No rudeness meant, but if it was mine it sure wouldn't have any bracelet scratches after just a week... but I also know people here who buy cars for half a million and never wash them, so it might be "just another watch" to him. What a lucky fella!  

It would be interesting to predict what will happen to prices of this Omega on the secondary market, but in the interim they sure are a budget-buster at AD prices !!

Congrats again Pax - I have yet to hold one in my hands, and a bit like Graham - I am not sure I am big enough (!!) but by jingo that Omega just "has it" in a way that the imitators I am familiar with, and have actually bought, just don't IMVHO.

Nice one! I find these posts very motivating! ;)
