Yes there are all types of strange people on this forum lol. I heard there are some who do not wear POs even. M why? I am interested to know. I hardly ever wear a watch for more than a few hours, but 5 mins, even that would be weird for me. Did you try it on rubber?

As soon as I get off this 36 hour shift, I'll be joining the club.
Finally got my first Omega and went with a lightly frankened 45.5 PO from a m2m sale.
Was delivered while I was on shift.
Excited to see it in person, it looks fantastic.

Hahaha i don't have an answer to that.. Probably because i have to many watches. Yessss I said it.. lol don't tell the lady! I have been long neglecting a few, and it hurts me! my two POs have been being neglected. No particular reason, i've just been grabbing a few others. I'm trying to work out a daily rotation with all my watches. but then i find myself feeling guilty for spending money on gens, and not wearing them lol

Yay I finally made it home.
Watch looks great.
Might be too big for me. Was leary of getting the 45mm with those lugs being pretty straight. Have to give it some wrist time and see how it feels...might be a C&R for me.

What size is your wrist? Those lugs are pretty straight and hang a bit.

right around 7" wrists. which is why i was a little iffy on the 45mm.
its not terribly big, but its right there at the razors edge between "too big" and "more or less fits"...
the watch is beautiful though...ill have to wear it a few days and see how it goes.
i get the initial feeling that i should have waited for a 42mm version, but i havent given up hope on this one quite yet!

Yeah, the 45 is a BIG watch. It wears a lot smaller on rubber if you can find one.

I agree with the statement that it wears much smaller on rubber.
My 45 Noob Pumpkin fits similarly on me and only I notice.
All I get are compliments when it's on rubber OR steel.
My advise,
The 45mm PO shrinks substantially on rubber so if it feels big, change to a strap. Too nice of a watch to let go. Most that have later regret it. Myself included :)
I don't have a current pick of the noob PO on its strap but here is my old 45mm UPO on the same strap.
You can see it rounds it off nicely.

Here is the same watch on steel. Much more squared edges than on rubber and the head even looks bigger. Same exact watch.

If you love it, keep it. It looks great on your wrist.
Like was said before by another member, "It doesn't look too big. if you find it comfortable,your gtg".

I thought it was a nice rep but with the roll you have been on with Gen Omegas, I wasn't quite sure anymore. Lol!
