RobbieG Posted February 5, 2009 Report Share Posted February 5, 2009 Many may have seen this already, but I find these fun so I thought I would post it. Amazing how one mans treasure is another's trash and how all of our tastes are so subjective. A fair review I think all around, although most of what he subtracted points for the PO for, I would be adding them. Like the AR being a dealbreaker for him, and for me it was literally one of three principle reasons I bought the watch for. LOL. Although I get that some that are hard on watches and don't baby them bum out on AR when it gets scratched. Me, it is unlikely to happen to because I am so cautious... http://rolexreferencepage.com/SDPO/sd%20vs%20po.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wsj_ca Posted February 7, 2009 Report Share Posted February 7, 2009 Rolex is for the aristocracy. Omega is the face of the new generation. That said, I'd never say no to a Sea-Dweller.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
l3x Posted February 8, 2009 Report Share Posted February 8, 2009 Very cool article. IMO, the dual side AR coating on the PO is what gives it it's fabulous look. Definatley a bonus feature . I too do not see this as a "flaw." For those that don't like it, lucky for them, it can easily be removed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeeJay Posted February 8, 2009 Report Share Posted February 8, 2009 John's reviews are always an excellent read, and a great inspiration for the reviews I've written myself. He's also a very nice guy. Humble, well-mannered, just the kind of guy who would fit in and be an asset to a community like this, but, I don't know how he feels about reps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shundi Posted February 8, 2009 Report Share Posted February 8, 2009 I don't think John's a rep fan but I do love his reviews...his Seamaster/ Sub/SD review combos are some of the best on the web! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrantR Posted February 8, 2009 Report Share Posted February 8, 2009 I'm for the PO, but 42mm version... Good review i agree - seems very fair headed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was his SMP vs Sub review which made me really notice Omega as a brand, and start to take a more specific interest in the aspects of a watch, rather than just looking at the 'overall package', so at the very least, I owe him thanks for broadening my horizons Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
