shultz Posted May 23, 2007 Report Share Posted May 23, 2007 Hi there, I am owning a few gen vintage Omega chronos but wasn't interested in a rep yet. Finally I purchased an ultimate PO and -yes- this is a nice tool watch- I dont want to write a review because bytor did so in an excellent way. Just two quick black&white shots of my PO (45mm) on NATO-strap for your pleasure: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FxrAndy Posted May 23, 2007 Report Share Posted May 23, 2007 That looks good, a great alternative to a rubber strap. Any chance of a wrist shot to see how high it sits due to the nato retainer band? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leifhaus Posted May 23, 2007 Report Share Posted May 23, 2007 I haven't had a chance to try on a 45mm PO, and wonder if it would be too big. I have a 7" wrist. It looks like your watch is right on the edge of being too big. What size is your wrist? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But life is too short to wear small watches Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leifhaus Posted May 24, 2007 Report Share Posted May 24, 2007 It is something below 19 cm. But life is too short to wear small watches So your wrist is just under 7 and 1/2 inches. Yeah the 45mm PO might border on clownish for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pman Posted May 24, 2007 Report Share Posted May 24, 2007 Damn Schultz that looks great. I was thinking of gettinga sub and putting a Nato Bond strap on it. But that looks awesome. I think you just saved me at least $100. Thanks. Where did you get your strap? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get mine from Time Factors: http://www.timefactors.com/nato.htm I get these NATO's sent to me as well from Eddie. They are soft yet very sturdy, bead-blasted stainless steel to match our "rugged" watches. Excellent! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
