I popped my Omega cherry

[TESLA760]

I've been looking to get my first Omega . After reading, and getting feedback from R2, Q5, and some others, I picked up a UPO 45mm. I got it today. All I can say is that I love it. This one has a Sunnydale Xtal and a Vac lumed dial, pearl mod . I've started to research the parts to go Franken. But for now, I'll enjoy it as is . I took two quick pics. Any feedback is welcome :cheers:

Congrats, Bimmer. Planet Ocean is a timeless looking watch. It'll look just as good a decade from now.

Why did you chose this over the PO Liquid Metal?

 

[TESLA760]

I gathered that this is the best out of the box. I do have my eye on the LM.

I've always been keen on an omega, more than not with the release of the liquid metal...

Look pretty nice, how are the hands and markers on this one. I know the liquid metal had some minor issues with scratches and such.

Nice pick up B

 

[TESLA760]

Everything looks good.

Damn, you make a 45mm look small.

 

[eVojlib]

Good to know...

Enjoy it bud....

PO is a stunner, good buy! I picked up the 42mm CrPO with the black dial and orange numbers right when it came out. Best out of the box rep I've seen yet.

Congrats mate on popping your Omega cherry

I'm yet to pop mine. Oh, and PAM cherry too.

For sure on the best out if the box omega reps and a nice franken base.
