New to Omega, new PO
Several years ago while I was at Tourneau (Costa Mesa) buying a Rolex GMT Master II, a big-cased orange-bezeled Omega caught my attention. I didn't think too much about it then, but through the years, I have always admired the watch.
Fast forward to today. After having acquired some more Rolex, Tags & G-Shocks, I thought it was time to look for that orange beauty. So I went to visit an AD and to my surprise, there are now 2 versions of the 45mm PO (2500 & 8500). They were both stunning and I would have taken either one. In the end, I took the 2500 because the deal was too hard to pass up

Congratulations. Just picked up a couple of POs recently after owning a ton of Rolex. I'm very happy also and the bang for the buck is GREAT!

I am pretty sure I saw that same watch on the last episode of NCIS on Agent Gibbs.
Looked quite good.
