The overall look of the Spectre is stunning but it didn't wear right on the wrist for me. It's too big lug to lug distance coupled with wearing very thick when on the NATO (I didn't like it at all on the bracelet) so it's now being sold.
The PO LM LE was love at first sight. I wore it on the bracelet for a couple of years but changed to the OEM rubber strap. Now wears super comfy and the rubber dresses it up nicely. Omega hit a home run with this PO. Great size, not too thick, applied numerals with "open" number font like the old 2500 PO, liquidmetal, solid caseback and the red seamaster lettering. Pretty much perfect.
The Sub is great too. Wears very well as not thick whatsoever and the very best bracelet in the business for me. But the Submariner is so so common hence I don't wear it much.

As a divers\' watches fan myself, I would love to read a comparative review of these three, when you get a moment. Would have thought the Spectre is a lifetime keeper, so you surprised me there. Love its grained dial and all. All the best, Alex

The details make a lot of sense and I would fully agree on your perspectives especially on the Spectre and Submariner. All the very best, Alex

That is a fantastic collection. Any plans on getting a replacement piece for the Omega?

Well.....I keep hearing rumours of a 39mm Seamaster 300 coming out next. If it has the same case as the FOIS speedmaster then I'm sold as that watch fits me like a glove. I love the straight lugs so much. Fingers crossed!!
Very fine collection

I recently added a 114060 Ceramic Sub No Date, absolutely fabulous iconic model that continues the amasing history of this watch. I have been down the Explorer path on a couple of occasions and the GMT Master route but I have finally returned to where it ...
