300M smp chrono vs. Planet Ocean

I definitely will! I got it in on Monday, opened the box, and it was the wrong watch. I had to overnight it back to the AD, and I should get my correct one tomorrow morning.
Good choice. i just saw this thread and i was about to chime in PO and it looks like you've already decided on that.
IMO it's not always the wrist and watch size relationship that determines what you can pull off, but also your personality and character.
the SMP is nice but if i had to buy a Gen i would buy the SMP Chronograph. it's more substantial and i don't have a problem hiding it under a shirt sleeve. it's a nice classy watch and about the same price i think as the 42mm PO.

Got my PO in yesterday, and will post a thread in the gen section later. Here's a teaser shot-
Congrats! Really glad you like it!

First I couldn't decide between 42mm PO and Bond Seamaster, either. But I decided to buy the Bond because it has more "unique" Omega-like design... PO is very nice but perhaps it's a bit too much "Sub like".
I wanted the old model without the Co-Axial movement because I don't like that jerky sweep on the new Omega movement.
I first had the rep for 4 years and since the appeal never went away, I decided to get the gen. Today I would make the same decision.

^Nice!
It was a very difficult decision for me also, and I still love the 300m. The versatility of the PO to be a sports or dress watch sold me though. I'd have no problem putting the black w/ white stitching strap on mine and wear it at a black tie event if I wanted. I do see a 300m chrono diver in my future though!

The SMP 300 is rather poorly replicated while the PO replicas are extremely accurate and imo are amazing
