Hands on With Omega Seamaster Planet Ocean Ref 215.30.46.51.01.001, this version is the update to the previous model on a old post on my blog link here Omega PlanetOcean. The new one is still water resistant to 600m and is really distinct with the black ceramic unidirectional rotating divers’ bezel, with its Liquidmetal diving scale on a 45mm case. The Omega is satin and polished finish and is a big nice timepiece.
The movement is calibre 9900 and is self winding Co axial escapement, resistant to magnetic fields 15,000 gauss, Central hour, minute and chronograph seconds hands, small seconds hand, 12-hour and 60-minute recorders with power reserve 60 hours. The date window is at 6 o clock, the Omega has a see through caseback housing the 9900 movement is always nice finish to a watch. Sapphire crystal has anti glare coating as most Omega’s have.
The bracelet I noticed a nice tweak and modified so you can adjust on the clasp instead of having to take a link out of the bracelet all the previous seamaster range had no adjustment at all.
Overhaul this is the best Omega Seamaster PlanetOcean chronograph I have owned looks just stunning in the flesh a hell of lot of watch for the money for the Omega lovers. The Planet Ocean definitely come a long way from the first design, I have had a fair few but never keep them no idea why!! I think its the Rolex in me get board fast.
