wheaton26 Posted December 17, 2008 Report Share Posted December 17, 2008 it honestly looks like the 42mm version, but it's hard to tell when the man wearing it is ten feet tall and bulletproof. unfortunately there were no other shots of the watch inside.

imranbecks Posted December 17, 2008 Report Share Posted December 17, 2008 Yes. Michael Phelps is an Omega ambassador, so naturally, he wears an Omega.. Judging from the edges of the bezel and calendar distance on the dial, I think he is sporting the 45mm.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chronoluvvv Posted December 18, 2008 Report Share Posted December 18, 2008 ya know how i know you're ghey ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobbieG Posted December 18, 2008 Report Share Posted December 18, 2008 Yeah it is the 45.5MM. You can tell by saving and zooming the pic easier if you find it hard to see. The space distance between the datewindow and the edge of the 3 o'clock marker is the easiest tell as becks mentioned. Also the space between the center post and where the block of "writing" starts above the 6 o'clock marker is another. It is always interesting to me how much smaller the watch wears on rubber than on steel. Still, he makes it look pretty small besides. How tall a guy is he, anyone know?

Fidestro Posted December 18, 2008 Report Share Posted December 18, 2008 Omega has had Phelps on contract for a long time. I bet they got a bargain as they bought into him when no one else was interested. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How tall a guy is he, anyone know? 6'4", 200 lbs according to wiki. I was thinking that the PO had to be a 45 because it looked pretty big because it had a lot of presence despite being on black rubber. Everyone sees things a little differently, but in this case we all seem to have come to the same conclusion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
