Rolex Forums - Rolex Watch Forum - View Single Post - OBSERVATIONS: Omega PO8500 vs 116610 Sub C

I passed by the Omega Boutique earlier today and I must say that the PO 42mm is really growing on me. I was wearing my old trusty 16610 Sub and I think the new PO technically beats that that watch in all segments. A better bracelet and clasp would put it pretty much on par with the SubC. At 25% the $6,200 MSRP it is pretty much half the price of a SubC and a no brainer. Great 'affordable' alternative or addition to any collection IMO.

I'd love to see some photos of the 42mm PO on NATO strap.
