So as far as the ceramic goes, leaving size aside, would you recommend the 42mm or the 45mm?

Atm I'd go for the 42mm personally, the AR adds an awful lot, despite some of the little flaws on the dial and bezel of the 42mm the more transparent AR just makes the watch pop so much more. If they sort out the AR on the 45mm that will be the better rep then...no doubt.

==========================

Q5? Nominated it and I hit the button. The problem was, I gave the award to Q by mistake. It was fixed promptly but apparently you didn't get the notification. That was my fault, but what a great surprise from a mistake eh? ;)

:D:

Thanks for a superb review, excellent work, indepth and super helpful.
Was toying with picking one up recently, but now am sold. Just waiting on Ryan getting back to work, after CNY to see if he can source me a 42.
Well deserved thread award.

That's two threads I've read you asking silly questions in. There is a TRUSTED DEALERS section on this site that has about 10 dealers in with their websites. Head there and read up..

Drbollocko, great job on this post and congrats on the well deserved award! I apologize for not having commented earlier, I've been a bit busy and haven't had a chance to read the whole thread.

My mind is certainly set on a 42mm, but like most I would love to read a review on the blue LM before I pull the trigger :)

Thanks guys! Cheers Om3gy_guy I was surprised when they released the pumpkins and LM 4 or 5 days after the initial ceramics, I only bought the 45mm for a look really, I've no intention of using it. Had I known that other choices were coming so soon I'd have certainly held out and bought differently, probably a 42 CPO/42 pumpkin and the 45mm LM. It pays not to be an early adopter ;)

Been wearing the 42mms on various straps rubber/leather/nato over the past few days and they wear pretty well and comfortable. The 45mm is a bit like a dinner plate on me, but I still would love to see that LM also!

OMG! Do any of you noobs read? Sorry to be the asshole but please read around before you post a question that has already been answered here or... One click back in the Omega section. If you think I directed this toward you, I did, but don't take it personally, it's for the benefit of all.

In my opinion the movement would look much close to gen in CrPO if the surface of the whole movement had sam surface as the winding rotor. What do you think?

It may look nicer but not even close to the gen...

Anybody notice Omega released new gens recently. A 42mm and 37.5mm blue PO LM Ti. And also a PO GMT version. Let's hope they get repped!

Also there is supposed to be a CUPO release coming from noob factory soon. I didn't think they would go ahead with it but we'll wait and see.

I am constantly tempted by the new POs, but if a blue version, a CUPO version or a GMT are on the horizon I will be holding off a little longer. PayPal ready and waiting.
