This watch is going to age like bell bottoms on men.

This is probably true. I might retract “love it” to just “really like it”. Blue might get tiring after a while and 45.5 mm is large. Regular PO at 43.5 works very well though I would prefer the blue and orange scheme.

I thought you were referring to these:

Stan, don’t you know the first law of physics? Anything that’s fun costs at least eight dollars”
-- Eric Cartman

“To absent friends, lost loves, old gods, and the season of mists; and may each and every one of us always give the devil his due.”
― Neil Gaiman, The Sandman

I bought a cheap watch from a crazy man
Floating down canal
It doesn't use numbers or moving hands
It always just says now
Now you may be thinking that I was had
But this watch is never wrong
And If I have trouble the warranty said
Breathe In, Breathe Out, Move On

That is a real beauty, and honestly looks amazing Chris ! :headbang:
You really have to love the combination of colors with it as well.
It's awesome, or actually 'amazing' to me because I'm a Mets fan. :grin:

So have to give it :thumbsup: :thumbsup: !!

Thanks very much for the look !!!

I'd say it's a thumbs up if blue and orange are your team's colors. Otherwise pass.

This particular one is not for me, but I understand the appeal of some of Omega's more eclectic creations. I really like this one:

I prefer the 45.5mm Planet Ocean, but might make the move if Omega ever wises up and goes to a 22mm lug width.

I love these movements, albeit not in that particular color choice. This one would be my choice.
