- In this video we are taking a deep dive look into the Omega PloProf 1200m co-axial master chronometer in titanium. The ultimate diver
In the seamaster range… we briefly touch on some history & facts. I’ll show you what that orange eject button is really for and I’ll teach you “what the HEV” is for … long live google…
Anyway I think I fell hard for this watch.. but rumour has it's been discontinued.... Despite the size, I think it looks & wears amazing and there is nothing you can say to change my mind about that .
In this video i'm taking you in for a closeup but I made to sure to include enough wrist shots on my 16,5cm wrist.
If you have any questions, hit the comments or come find me on instagram
Big thanks to ploprofessor for lending me his watch

Just too darn quirky good
A wrist submarine, I love it!!
Hehe. Chuckled
Superb épisode Tom. Quality shots, loved it
Thanks a ton! x
One of the coolest divers ever. It’s like the G Wagen of the watch world 😎
That’s a good one 👌
Awesome video Tom!! I think this piece is absolutely stunning 👌🏼
Thanks Mike 🙏
What a great review! Thank you for enlightening me on this timepiece! 😊
Glad you enjoyed it!🙏🙏
The most unique looking watch out there. A walking statement pierce. Absolutely adore the Ploprof and it’s disappointing that it’s being discontinued. I guess all good things must end. Great video man.
maybe they do another one ;) this is way cooler than the ultradive imho
Did they even discontinue the titanium ones orange and blue bezels ?
@@Romio666 I clicked on a few on their website---all were unavailable.
Nice. I was wearing mine today. One of my favorites.
Still on my wishlist.
Great vid, awesome camera work
Thank you man
Love your video and photo!
too kind. thanks
I really wish I could pull this off, it’s such a cool piece. Videos are certainly improving too, Tom, well done! Eat that, Milgauss 🤣🤣
Thx bud. I was surprised I could pull it off. Or so I made myself believe 😂
Great photography and review
Thank you kindly!
Such a badass and unique tool watch!
totally ! thanks for the visit Michael !
The water beast absolutely for divers in the ocean. Nice video of it. Maybe a collectors piece especially if Omega discontinue it.
You have some ocean nearby. Go get it 😂
I have it. I love it. Period. Epic watch.
Still high on my wishlist
The watch is drop dead gorgeous
super model ... sumo size
Shark mesh bracelet compliments brutalist design watched like this so much. But what stopped me in my tracks is the slight tapering I see. Should've been non-tapered imo. I'm sorry I just love shark meshes that I completely forgot about the watch lol.
But I’m sure it still stops the shark 😜
@@BowlOfSalmon no no no you can't stop sharks like that. Sharks need to move constantly nor they drown and die. They're literally run or die, or in this case swim or die.
Yeah yeah, but what does it look like on a NATO?! Another great vid mate, really enjoyed this deep dive into the ploprof, a watch I’ve seen but have never really learnt much about, so this video was really interesting, thanks! 😊🙏🏻
Haha thanks. I didn’t dare to mess with his lugs, but it did cross my mind. 😂. They also come/came with an extra rubber strap option
I think this is that kind of watch you have to see and experience in real life before you discover the beauty.
200%.
I can see it’s beauty from a mile away
I tried to order one from my local omega Store ,but they told me it’s now discontinued.
I like the one in white
With the blue bezel ? Looks available online so with some luck you could find one
This whole time i thought the large orange hand was for minutes and it was big so you can keep track of the timer bezel
wow .. how funny nobody pointed that out before I got it wrong :) #meaculpa
@@BowlOfSalmon lol it's all good 👍 I'm still learning about dive watches and I was fairly confused when you said it was the hour hand I do know that some dive watches do measure time in hours because some divers use rebreathers instead of conventional diving apparatus and I believe if they use rebreathers they are measuring time in hours instead of minutes
What does everyone think of the Helson Sharkmaster homage (to this) watch?
I’m okay with a homage but this is just a copy paste and imho just a copyright theft with a different name
Another cracker Tom, of an all time classic. Damn that thing is cool. Bad ass to the bone 🦴
thanks Mark ! appreciate it
Great quality video and shots. Are you a professional photographer.
Thanks. Busted. I am.
I want to see a model with this design that is waterproof to over 6000 meters. I want to see how serious Omega is.
The 20miles under the sea version is almost ready. Bespoke piece for jules Verne
Heres hoping my childhood dream watch wont become "unobtanium" 😢
yeah .. they are disappearing from the catalogue .. but you still have time to grow some wrist size ! :)
The Ploprof is to watches what the BMW GS is to motorcycles. It’s so ugly it’s actually cool. Built like a tank to boot.
😂 nice one

You need to have arms like Arnold Schwarzenegger to pull this off
me and arnold are buddies
Um, I think you mean Seiko was designing He proof watches. All the Omega divers have fart valves or crowns....
I'm not following ...
This watch is so silly. Not only it reaches only 1200m with all that metal (which were in the 60s but not now) but they also added an helium escape valve?? So basically the whole concept of the watch it’s non sense now. This is no more than an expensive fashion watch, in typical swatch group fashion, not “the ultimate watch geek diver”.
if only divers would wear it they wouldn't sell any .. might as well let everyone enjoy the design :) thx for the visit bud
@@BowlOfSalmon it’s not a matter of who wears it, it’s that is silly that they have ruined the original concept just to make it more commercial with the display case back. But that’s what the swatch group does… try to sell as many watches as possible, not caring about passion. But that’s just my opinion ✌🏼
@@giovanniandrean6229 you are right. That is crazy. Can’t believe a watch company wants to sell as many watches as possible. The shame!
@@watchreport don’t look at my finger while I point at the moon… if you get what I mean.
No the best dive watch is the Rolex Deepsea
If it was just about depth rating. Gotta admit the ploprof has all the charm tho
What a horrible monstrosity, only a sad old man name Paul Thorpe would purchase three of these ugly relics of the past!
Not hyped so not his cup of tea
