Deep Sea Seadweller size Vs Seamastee XL
Does anyone have pics of a deep sea next to an omega planet ocean xl (45.5). Trying to decide if the deep sea is too big, I wear a planet ocean from time to time but the deep sea seems larger.

That's not a DSSD. OP- I've owned both and the Omega will look bigger because of the overall face. If you're talking the 8500, about the same thickness too. The DSSD is very thick but when you look at it head on, the dial/face appears "smaller" due to the inner ring, writings on the dial etc. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I have a 2016 PO 43.5 and a DSSD blue (44mm). They where very similar, and I find both very comfortable considering their large size. I will try to post a side by side later. I have just slightly under 7 inch wrists

Here they are together. IMHO, even thought the Omega is a 43.5mm, it wears larger than the DSSD because the dial is bigger. The DSSD ring lock makes dial smaller giving the overall watch a smaller feel. I know the OP was specifically asking about the 45.5mm, but this is the best I can do.
As I've mentioned in a few posts under the Omega groups on TRF, I think Omega crushed it this year with the 2016 PO and changing up the specs. It is a great watch. Having owned the DSSD for a month now, I like it better, but it was also twice the cost of the Omega. At 5700 USD after negotiating with AD, the new Omega holds it's ground well. I had an 8500 but sold it. All of the things I didn't like about it were fixed in 2016 by Omega. I mention all of this because I believe Omega did away with the 45.5mm PO this year and only offers it in 43.5. |
