I’m after a rubber strap like this to fit the 45.5mm version, any recommendations?
I keep getting them from AliExpress. They are decent quality, they brand the straps but they no longer brand the buclkes. I had a gen one once and it was superb quality, however for the price difference you cannot complain about the Ali straps.

Type in "curved strap for omega seamaster, planet ocean" after a bit of searching and playing around with the search terms you should find one if they are still doing them. Make sure to ask the seller if it has Omega branding.

I 2nd that. Lovely watch. Some more shots would be great !

2 questions.

1. Are the indices quite yellow. The gens are very pale but the lighting and cameras the dealers use make them look very yellow.

2. Does you bezel markings glow? Trusty and pure times pics show only the face glows. In time has a pic showing the bezel glowing too like the gen.

Either way what a nice change from the shiny dial and bezel POs normally have.

Oh, how I missed these.

All it needs is a new movement and a crown and tube. All on order!

The induces are biege/sand colour, they looks a bit vintage, but I like it.
The bezel has luminovs only on dot, marking don't glow, but I can't find any picture where the bezel glows on original.


I like matte finish of the watch very much, looks very interesting

The 2500 series Planet Oceans are just timeless, the 42mm goes toe to toe with the 5 digit subs for design quality. The depth on the LMLE dial is unbelievable. Love it.
