dak244 Posted February 6, 2007 Report Share Posted February 6, 2007 OK, so I know I'll probably get reemed for this, and maybe I deserve it, but I just had to anyway. Anyway, I have been searching through HUNDREDS of photos (wrist check search) trying to find a good zoomed out one of the Omega PO 45.5 and Pam 111h. What I mean by zoomed out is on the wrist, but far enough away that I can see what it will look like on the wrist. So with that being said, is there anyone who can post (Pug Im sure you have a few cause I know you have the PO) photos (zoomed out) of mainly the 45.5 PO on their wrist? I have been heavily debating this watch, especially because of Josh's promo price on it, and would really like to see whether or not I am going to look like a fool. For reference, I have a 7 inch wrist (pug, yours seems a bit smaller) if that helps. THANKS!! P.S. say what you would like to me, I know i probably deserve it.

Estaban Posted February 6, 2007 Report Share Posted February 6, 2007 I don't have a photo of the PO on my wrist, but I found that it looked silly on me (I have a 7.5 inch wrist). The watch is not much bigger than a 44mm Pam, but the lugs are too long and the the lug width too narrow for a 45.5mm watch (I probably sound like a broken record with the amount of times I've said this). Go for a 44mm Pam Here are some pics on my wrist I've had numerous other 44mm pams (196, 029, 005, and 111). I guess I've ditched all those pics.

I have been heavily debating this watch, especially because of Josh's promo price on it, and would really like to see whether or not I am going to look like a fool. I have a 6.75" wrist. I don't look like any more of a fool than I normally do with a PO on. However, I don't have any zoomed-out photos ... and now I do. Excuse the quality, but light is hard to come by in the quantities I need. PO:45mm 111:44mm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dak244 Posted February 6, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 6, 2007 Pug - Thanks a lot for the pics!! I knew you would come through.. I think it actually looks great on you. I believe my wrist is right around 7, so if I could pull it off like you that would be nice. Just from looking, it doesnt look like something I could wear to work everyday (a little too much) but with a button up or a sweater and jeans it looks pretty good. Thanks again Pug!!

If your wrist is 7", then it's bigger than mine. I don't feel like a PO is too big, and because of the PO, I can now wear a Fiddy. My 187 arrives soon so hopefully that'll finally give me something that feels silly and oversized. I don't wear suits, but my brother does and he wears nothing but his 45mm Orange PO, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 52 weeks a year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
By-Tor Posted February 6, 2007 Report Share Posted February 6, 2007 Here's a dirty shot I took a while back from slightly different angle... on my 8' wrist. A bit bulky, yes... but would probably look okay on a smaller guy too (just like Pug's pictures show). A few "ordinary" wrist shots: This watch is a must (imho). Fantastic rep.

Polynomial Posted February 6, 2007 Report Share Posted February 6, 2007 I find 45 decent size, certainly not too big, while 42 is bit too small, here are couple of wrist shots of my 45 PO: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Epanoui Posted February 7, 2007 Report Share Posted February 7, 2007 Pug!!!!!!!!! Those are the kind of shots that people need to post more often. I can't stand when people post wrist shots that are only 2 inches away, that's ridiculous. Who in the world ever looks at your watch that close. I think the first photo you posted is the exact kind of shot that should be posted more often. It gives a good indication of what the watch ACTUALLY look like. Great work.

flavor flav Posted February 7, 2007 Report Share Posted February 7, 2007 the 45.5mm is meant to look big. and it does! looks more manly than a sub. it's the rep of all reps you must have it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More like the 42 mm, thats crazy. How big is your wrist if you dont mind me asking? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crick0234 Posted February 7, 2007 Report Share Posted February 7, 2007 Great Pic Pug! looks good on you. i dont think a PO needs fancy wear at all. i consider it my "beat 'em up" watch for all occasions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andreww Posted February 7, 2007 Report Share Posted February 7, 2007 Yes, hit self timer, suck in gut, wait. Difficult indeed! Not a bad physique for an 84 year old man Pug! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pugwash Posted February 7, 2007 Report Share Posted February 7, 2007 Yes, hit self timer, suck in gut, wait. Difficult indeed! Not a bad physique for an 84 year old man Pug! It's the sucking in of the gut that takes the skill. Oh, and I'm only 83. I've a few years to go before I catch you up, mate. ps. Try taking a self-portrait. It's not as easy as it appears.

OrangeSpoon Posted February 8, 2007 Report Share Posted February 8, 2007 (edited) this is a great post i was thinking about good 'everyday' shots like this anyone out there a lanky streak 'o **** like me? what watches have you found look alright? i have very long forearms and 6.75" wrist so some watches just look silly, shame cause the 45.5 PO looks amazing Edited February 8, 2007 by tester Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justaguy88 Posted February 10, 2007 Report Share Posted February 10, 2007 My wrists are a wimpy 7 inches and both the watches look fine (imho) The 111 (and my tough guy pose) The 45mm PO (and my tough guy pose again) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OrangeSpoon Posted February 10, 2007 Report Share Posted February 10, 2007 good photos, thanks i think i just need to adjust my mind to wearing a different style of watch i've not been a high end replica/gen wearer before so the case sizes are just something i need to get familiar wearing i think Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
