Picked this up a few days ago. Love the orange but not sure if 43.5 might be a better size.

Awesome! Congrats, man!

That's the 45mm, Neil? I do find the 45 too large for my 6.5" wrist, but the new 43.5 Planet Oceans fit great.

Thanks Dave, no it's the 42. Bit too thick for the size.

Neil,
I've had one of the older POs and stayed away since finding the thickness too much. I recently added the 39.5 and it shaves a mm or 2 off and fits much better. Not sure you like bezel change / glossy dial but I find them much more wearable!

Cheers Adam, I'm gonna try on all the 43s again, if I can find them. The 39 was too small for me but looks great on you.

Although I'm rather fond of the updated models I also think it's a darn shame they've gotten rid of the waves on the dial. That picture you posted certainly makes me appreciate them even more!

Thank you I agree that the waves are a very attractive feature on the old dials.
