I think the LM.PO's a stunning watch but it depends if it's the watch you really like & what kind of deal you're getting on it?

These two arrived at the same time and the GMTIIc is long gone:



I say go for it.

Personally, I prefer it over any Rolex although I own three Rolex watches. The fit and finish is every bit as good as my Rolex watches, if not better. The co-axial movement is very accurate and serviceable. And IMO the LiquidMetal/ceramic bezel design is superior to the Rolex ceramic.

Here is some additional info from the Certificate of Authenticity that came with my watch:

I've seen other pictures of them, but awesome shots. Really makes me wish it wouldn't look so ridiculous of my 6.5 wrists

Which bit you didn't understand....?

To answer your question, the LM PO is a great looking watch. If u didn't have the orange PO, I'd get one of these. The combination of liquid metal and ceramic fusion technology sounds exciting and the end result is pretty eye pleasing. One thing many people has a concern over is the additional cost over the normal PO...
You need to ask yourself if you are welling to pay a premium for the cosmetic changes and it still has the 2500C movement. Im sure it'd be worth it if it has a 8500 movement.

Can I ask which 3 Rolex watches you have? Are there any divers?

The LM is a beauty, for sure.

Also, don't worry about some of the blind brand-loyalty on display here.
