What do you think of the Omega Planet Ocean 42mm featured in Quantum of Solace? Do you think it matches the character in the film? Would you prefer this or one of the newer Omega Planet Ocean 600M Divers? Let me know what you think in the comments section!

In my opinion it’s the perfect one watch collection. 600m water resistance, steel case & bracelet, rugged yet attractive, simple dial, you get a date, can be worn with a suit depending on your size and personality type. If anything if you are wearing a suit put it on a leather strap.

I think it's just a movie. Not a very good one at that. I like the watch.

This was a great looking watch. Most brands these days seem to add a lot of shine and sparkle to their watches in a bid to make them feel more like a luxury product, which certainly has its place, but it would also be nice to have something like this model again. If Omega could somehow slim down their current movements just a little, it would be amazing!

For sure, I think soon as they sort out the thickness they’ll be back on track - but IMO they’re already headed in the right direction with the hand wound Speedmaster 57 and Chronoscope to slim down. Would be interesting to see if they bring that to the PO :)

Were you able to find this new?

@marcod.r.3299 3 ай бұрын

got this one....but the one on your video seems to be missing the red tip on the seconds hand......was the seconds hand replaced?

@ShahLusso 3 ай бұрын

this one had it but it was very faded - i just double checked the original footage before i recolored it and there it shows but very faintly. The example from the video was a 2006 model so likely it faded in the nearly years since the original owner bought it

Yes, it matches Bonds character in QoS. The first generation of Planet Oceans represented the concept of a tool watch much more than the current models do. They were smaller and lighter, more convenient to wear and had a better legibility. They were also much less flashy than the current ones. Back then there was also a more defined distinction between the relatively dressy SMP 300 and the no nonsense and straight forward toolish Planet Ocean. I have both, the blue SMP that has been featured in Casino Royale and the 42mm Planet Ocean from Quantum of Solace in black. No problem to wear both of them with a suit. Nowadays occasions to wear a tuxedo / dinner suit have become rare. So if you get the most important things right, e.g. fit and size of the tux, double cuff shirt, hand tied bow tie, polished shoes etc. you can easily get away with wearing a modestly sized dive watch like the SMP or the Planet Ocean.

I wear my PO2500 more than my Rolex watches. This watch is so versatile and the specs are unmatched.

Couldn't agree more, it's got so much going for it all packed into some really useable dimensions. I wish they could do the same with their current POs...but thats the joy of these older ones being out there :D

Hard to discuss a watch that is over 10 years old by current standards... maybe back them a thick watch like it was a thing... now, with all the refined alternatives not so much. Great video!

@ShahLusso 4 ай бұрын

At first glance its hard to compare, but when you consider the prices of these on the pre-owned market compared to the newer versions (which are both thicker and pricier) it does make for an interesting comparison - and thats before you consider it as an alternative to something like a Sea Dweller or Breitling Superocean Heritage.

Honestly I still prefer the caliber 2500 to the new one even if it is supposed to be less exclusive

@ShahLusso 5 ай бұрын

The 8900 calibres on the new one do have the jumping hour hand which is a nice improvement, but I do wish they didn’t have such a big impact on the thickness 😬

Any idea where to purchase this watch new?

@ShahLusso 3 ай бұрын

Very difficult to find this version of the Planet Ocean new since it’s been discontinued for so long - best bet would be to keep an eye out on Chrono24 for new old stock or unworn examples

I think its a classic. The new PO is very flashy.

@ShahLusso 5 ай бұрын

Definitely a classic design, I do like some of the modern POs with the ceramic bezels but the sizing on this one is much better IMO

@jh-il5sb 5 ай бұрын

funny, i just put on my orange bezel 2500 PO right before i saw this video

@ShahLusso 5 ай бұрын

Love the Orange bezel one, was such a bold color to introduce and IMO the aluminum bezel one looks nicer than the orange ceramics Planet Oceans they have now. Enjoy it in good health :)

@Harry-tb8yo Ай бұрын

Wore my first generation PO Chrongraph with the orange bezel in the afternoon and switched to the black 42mm 2500 before watching this video. I would never give them away. But adding the new green Boutique edition could be a possibility...😁
