Hi, Gang! These are the first pics of the gen Omega SeaMaster 600M GMT Planet Ocean Good Planet wifey purchased for me @ Little Switzerland in St. Thomas. To my surprise, she tried to purchase the Rolex 116613 (blue & gold) for me first but was put off by the $11,000 price tag. (I warned her about this.) Undeterred, she saw I really like the Omega Good Planet & encouraged me to try it on then bought it for me. I was floored by this, as I honestly had no intention of purchasing another watch in St. Thomas. I hope to do a more detailed pictorial on this by tomorrow. I was surprised by how heavy it is & was genuinely surprised by the detail on it. I hope these five (5) pics do it justice, as I'm no pro with my point-and-shoot digital camera. dave:

That is a thing of beauty. I'd never stop wearing it!

Can't wait to see a caseback/movement shot!

Enjoy and wear in the best of health!

Thanks, Gabe! I really was surprised by its physical presence once I saw it and tried it on. A fuller pictorial is coming up either today or tomorrow.

Thanks, WW! That's a good question, as I saw somewhere on this Forum or another a $350 rep of this. After taking a close look at it, I was impressed with the similarities between the rep and my gen. THAT was the best of the reps I had seen. Actually, I had a cheaper version of this secured from Price Angels to try it on to see how it would look. Although a cheapie, it wasn't too bad -- just was cheaply put together. I told wifey at the time of the purchase I could save major bucks by buying a great rep. Her reply? Why a rep when you can have the genuine article. heh!

Nice watch Dave. I have been wanting to get one of these for a while. It's such a cool combo. How do you think the rep looks comparing to the gen?

Hi, Gang! These are the first pics of the gen Omega SeaMaster 600M GMT Planet Ocean Good Planet wifey purchased for me @ Little Switzerland in St. Thomas.

Congrats, Dave! I've tried this one on at various Omega ADs, and the color combo is amazing. You're sure to get a lot of guys asking about it.

Hi, Gang!

It's Humpday today, so in that spirit, I offer a "two-fer" today -- most of the day, the new gen Omega SeaMaster Good Planet GMT; for the remainder of the day/evening, this new Rolex ND Sub (c) (can't remember its model number) I received from a mate next door on RWG. It arrived the day before leaving on vacation & this is the first chance I've had to post it. I wore it a lot on the cruise. Seems to me few people noticed, which is typical. Anyhoots, I won't wear the gen Good Planet to the gym (as I don't with my gen DateJust & TAG 500M Aquaracer). Enjoy! dave:

Uh, is there a reason none of my pics showed up after I posted them? All I see are little boxed "x"'s in the upper left corner of the pages. I also see these on ALL of the wristies for this week. Again, is there a reason for this?
