SubFrog Posted May 8, 2006 Report Share Posted May 8, 2006 You know, when the P.O. first came out...I went Ga-Ga over the watch...but, the more I look at my Sub and compare it to the Planet Ocean, I think I still like the Sub better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jraines87 Posted May 8, 2006 Report Share Posted May 8, 2006 I'll have to go with the Orange.... Never really liked the "Black" sub... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miquel Posted May 8, 2006 Report Share Posted May 8, 2006 I like both! I have them and wear the sub for work and the PO for weekends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jkerouac Posted May 8, 2006 Report Share Posted May 8, 2006 I think it comes down to whether you lean toward a classic "divers" watch or are more swayed by the eye-catching orange bezel and more modern PO design. I respect the fact that many of our members consider the submariner to be their "definitive" watch. I myself am not into diver watches per se--nor Rolexes in general--but I do find the PO to be a very sporty and eye-catching watch to wear.

GhostfaceZX Posted May 8, 2006 Report Share Posted May 8, 2006 I'm not into brite colors - black sub for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
By-Tor Posted May 8, 2006 Report Share Posted May 8, 2006 Hmm, Orange definitely over the modern Sub. But with vintages it'd be a tough call. Although I love the PO I actually still prefer the "Bond" SMP over it. Dunno why, it just feels more rugged and handsome on the wrist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GhostfaceZX Posted May 8, 2006 Report Share Posted May 8, 2006 Although I love the PO I actually still prefer the "Bond" SMP over it. Dunno why, it just feels more rugged and handsome on the wrist. I agree about the Bond SMP being handsome, but the GMT version is even better IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tribal Posted May 8, 2006 Report Share Posted May 8, 2006 I like them both, but the modern MBW Sub is my daily watch... I`m thinking about a black Planet Ocean... RG Tribal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thecrow Posted May 8, 2006 Report Share Posted May 8, 2006 Currently I prefer the Orange....even though I don't own one yet will probably purchase one some Trusty here pretty soon. I have a sub but havent worn it at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Tracy Posted May 8, 2006 Report Share Posted May 8, 2006 If Color is the main focus, then I prefer Black over Orange... With me basic designs, that have lasted the test of time, seem to be my most cherished.. However if it's,... PO vs Sub,... I seem to be going through this PO stage at present.. but who knows how long it will last,....? I do know that Sub is like an old friend, that always takes me back, no matter how long I have been gone...and she seems to always hold her shape..

longshot Posted May 9, 2006 Report Share Posted May 9, 2006 I never got the Sub thing until I got a good rep and now I do It would have to be the basic black Sub! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edge Posted May 9, 2006 Report Share Posted May 9, 2006 PO vs. Modern 16610 Black Sub.............PO ALL THE WAY PO vs. 1680 Vintage Sub............NO CONTEST, 1680 ANYDAY OF THE WEEK!!! just not a fan of the 16610, really not a patch on the vintage, and every noob wants one, so that puts me off even more lol Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bignasty Posted May 9, 2006 Report Share Posted May 9, 2006 Orange PO vs. Black Sub = Black Sub for me Now on the other hand if you compared: Black PO vs. Black Sub = Black PO w/o even thinking about it! Jon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
archibald Posted May 9, 2006 Report Share Posted May 9, 2006 IMO, dive I've always thought divers' lok better in color than black and white. If I could pull off owning 30k "worth" of divers watches in addition to my other watches without everyone who knows me saying "shyeah, right" I'd have an orange PO, a green sub, a yellow Le Plongeur, a blue pannie. All those purdy colors are the only reason a non scuba dude ought to wear a dive watch, IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubiquitous Posted May 9, 2006 Report Share Posted May 9, 2006 If we're talking modern.... PO for me, but only in black. If we're talking vintage 165.024 or a 1680- I'll take both... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Indyclmbr Posted May 9, 2006 Report Share Posted May 9, 2006 Sub for me. I'm just not into Omegas. I don't like the broad arrow hand. Although the vintage Omega is nice. Climb on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
