Better ceramic...
I've just red that the ceramic of the white diver, is a super ceramic, 9 times harder than steel, and at 1850 vickers when the ceramic of the black model is at 1350 vickers.Won't make me change my mind and go for the white but if what they say is true the watch is almost indestructible.That makes quite a few divers to choose from, even if they are being discontinued for some.Here's the pics of the ones I know of, which do you prefer?I prefer ceramic, then FC then tantalum, then SS, black and last white dial ap_image.2696478.jpgap_image.3251538.jpgIMG_9011.jpgaudemars-piguet-qeii-cup-2014-royal-oak-offshore-diver-limited-edition.620.316.s.jpgL1040322.jpg

15400 Dial Swap
My 15400 in black is heading back to Clearwater for the 3rd year warranty WR check in the spring, and I'm thinking of maybe swapping in a blue dial while they have it. Has anyone of you done this, and can one of you give me an idea of cost?

How many links on a BNIB, factory sealed Planet Ocean?
Hi Omega experts. Out of the blue, I have an amazing incoming tomorrow! BNIB, factory sealed, Seamaster Planet Ocean. Reference #232.30.46.21.01.001This has the 8500 movement which I hear is on par with the Rolex 3135/3137 movement. I think Omega is using an even newer 9300 on the newest POs, and they may even be better, but anyway...This has the black face and bezel. I have read the comparisons to the sub, and I'm so pleased that it can be mentioned alongside that watch. I'm really looking forward to enjoying it, especially since I paid a very fair price from a trusted seller here on the forum.Here is the question. This watch is factory sealed. How many links should it come with? More importantly, how big a wrist from the factory will it fit? My wrist is 7.5 and I like to wear my watch loose. Does Omega provide 3 extra links or is this the AD? No micro adjustment or glidelock has me worried about sizing. This is one area where rolex really outshines the PO, but for 1/2 the price I thi

Omega Seamaster lighting up my life! Post your lume shots!
My attempt at a lume shot here. I think it came out rather well. Wanted to go darker but my point and shoot camera was not up to that task. Hope you enjoy it guys!

Is An All Gold Watch Worth the Price?
I've only done some very minor calculations, but it seems that an all gold watch, let's say a Submariner, is much more expensive than a SS version, and at the same time, the value of the gold itself does not seem to match the higher price.For example, msrp for a SS Sub Date is 8,550. But a gold Sub Date is like 26k. I don't think there is 17k worth of gold in that watch, is there? Maybe 8-10k at most. Is the gold just harder to work with? What else might account for the price difference?
