My new trio...

...I recenly sold My AP RO and planned to replace it with 2 other watches, my last duo was my SubC and AP RO 15300 but I wanted some more variety...


So here it is...



The new additions....

The Mighty Omega PloProf...I also have the mesh and the black rubber....




And my DJII blue dial, the blue is amazing...

Nice mix! Congrats on both.
I've tried on that Omega before and it is some serious wristwear.

Thanks buddy, ohh YES the PloProf is serious watch for sure, but alot of fun and a truly unique piece with alot of history, and the quality feel is second to none IMHO...

EDIT: since it such a large watch is is crucial to get a good fit which is not always possible at ADs but when you get the sizing just right it is very waerable since it lacks the lugs so it wears very well..

Nice but the poor Sub-C was left out of the worst shot photo shoot :-(

wow! that was unexpected. your 15300 was perfection, but, sometimes a change is needed just for change, i suppose. nice replacements.

Thanks buddy, Yes, I really liked the 15300 but felt it was a bit boring when only having 2 watches and both of them were black dials (regret not waiting for a blue dial), also the 15300 was a bit too dressy for me, It looks great with a suit or semi dressed up, but I am more a jeans and Lacoste Polo type of guy and then it was too dressy for me...

This setup suits me better....(for now anyway, he he)

ahhhh the "Ploppy" is my next watch. How is the crown action? is it ok to use, or a pain in the ass?

It is fine, the only thing is the the date is not quickset, but you can turn the hour hand separately (same as the GMTIIC)....

Nice trio, love the Omega. I'd have that one on the mesh, just seem appropriate to the style!

PS I do have to say though that your choice of words on the other bracelet kind of skirts the rules here...

It is a plastic bracelet saying FUCK CANCER, very popular here in Sweden, worn many and also members of the royal family and politicians, artist etc, the bracelet are sold for about 12 USD and all the earnings go to cancer research to prevent cancer for young people...

I love it...

Really nice watches; not so fond of bracelets with profanity on them regardless of the cause. Great set of watches.
