I’m thinking a 37mm Yachtmaster would suit you perfectly Sanjay 🤔!
I do eye that watch from time to time haha. You know me well 😅
Thanks for comparing these two and sharing your thoughts. One feature of the Sub is the centre link on the lugs is the same size as all the centre links on the bracelet. This is not the case with many Grand Seiko models where the first centre link is larger than the rest.
Thanks so much for watching! That's a very interesting observation...I'll have to keep my eye out to catch that detail
I love Omega and Grand Seiko, but one area where Omega and GS kill me is their overly thick cases. If Rolex can make a 12.5 mm thick chronograph, why can’t Omega make a PO 13 mm thick or GS a 13 mm thick diver? I would rock a PO with the pre-ceramic dimensions.
So true. The thickness of the movements seem to limit these watch brands. GS is turning around with their higher end pieces though 😁
Rolex does have silicon hairspring, Syloxi too.
Very interesting. I'll have to read up on this. Thanks Leya!
Great to see the Sub being compared to the Planet Ocean. I have watched many other watch reviews and they always pick the seamaster 300 which doesn’t make sense to be compared to the Sub. I own the new white dial orange ceramic bezel version & I love it but a bit too top heavy so I find myself wearing the Rolex more
I understand why they compare the Sub to the Seamaster 300 or SMP300. The logical comparison for the Planet ocean is probably the Sea Dweller haha.
That said, This 40mm PO always felt like it should be compared to the Sub.
Great choice on that Orange and white PO. I wish it came in the 40mm size!
@@engineer_wannabe Good point forgot about the Sea Dweller. 💯 I would 💙 the orange ceramic in 40mm the fully lumed bezel is just beautiful
I feel Omega PO is more luxurious in terms of finishing and sub is more toolish. As your comment about who wears them for diving in same sense how much people use the bezel? And let's not forget about the price difference. I feel they both great at the price point they are. But, i totally agree no matter how great sub is but for smaller wrists PO 39.5 is a winner. I wonder why rolex increased the size as though in theory it just 1 mm but overall feel is kinda bigger on the wrists as the older 40mm sub wears a tad smaller.
Have you tried the 36mm Explorer? Just curious. Unlike this Sub, I think the Explorer would be a good fit for you. I guess there's the OP as well, but I just find them a little too boring.
I have indeed! The 36mm explorer is high up on the list for potential purchases in the future 😁
I love how scratched up all of Marcus's watches are. Makes me happy haha.
I like the look of the PO on others, but just never been attracted to them enough to buy. Hope it remains in your collection 😊
Marcus' scratched up watches make me really happy too haha. We are weird
@@engineer_wannabe I think the minimalistic way I live the rest of my life is finally creeping into watch collecting after all these years. A small collection of watches I wear and scratch up is more attractive to me right now then having a bunch that look good in a watch box, but never get used. Subject to change of course haha
You need both don’t give it back! Pay him and make him sell it to you, it looks better on you anyway !
Haha I wish 😛
Thanks for watching, my friend!
what is the list price difference between these 2 watches? $5000? My go some way explain the superior bracelet...
Thanks for the comparo! What's your wrist size btw?
The newest subs are 40.7mm this is why they say 41mm because it’s closer to 41 than 40.
Rolex is NOT hand finished. "While hand-finishing is not part of watchmaking at Rolex..." watchbox
Nice watch you have bro !!! Like the color combination of the PO
The LV sub looks just so cool without trying
You should look at a 5 digit Submariner (14060m). I bet that will feel better on your wrist. It's quite lighter than the Planet Ocean.
The omega wins on the dial, ar coating and curved lugs that hug the wrist vs the slab sided case of the rolex
Excellent review! First time watching channel and subscribed!
I love the po design , its just too chunky . The rolex looks sleek by comparison.rolexs design has stood the test of time , omega needs to go on a diet. Good review sanjay .
Thanks so much for watching, my friend!. Would be amazing if the PO were 1 to 2 mm thinner!
@@engineer_wannabe the earlier designs were thinner but like 45mm wide . I actually preferred the earlier ones. Especially the orange bezel ones !!!
Hey sanjay, don't knock the female end link. It's a smaller wrists best friend.
Very true! No real knock against it in terms of wearability haha 😁
What is the size of your wrist? Would help for reference
What size wrist do you have?
super cool!
You know it 😉👍
I thought METAS accuracy was 0 to +4 a day? Do Omega’s movements have different accuracy tolerances?
0 to plus 6
@@MarcusGLovesWatches just found this on the Omega website:
“0/+5 seconds, 0/+6 seconds, or 0/+7 seconds per day, depending on the calibre size.”
Didn’t know that it varied between movements.
Just had a quick look. Globemaster is +5, the Speedy Pro 3861 is +5, the 300m professional is +6, the Aqua Terra 41mm is +5. Might explain a little bit as to why the 300m is cheaper than the Aqua Terra.
@@nkonig1 my mistake - Metas is 0 to plus 5
The reports on Rolex hand finishing are likely false. No human hand can obtain a completely even polished side, no matter how skilled. It’s either pressed against a polishing wheel by hand, or done directly by a machine with the case held in place, as is the casetop linear brushing. It’s more likely that the Omega has seen more hand work due to the significantly lower production numbers and case complexity. It’s hard for a robot to get those lyre lugs finished to perfection. Rolex produces millions compared to Omega’s several thousands per model line, so they naturally have less time and chance to stop and hand finish things, having to pump them out like the mass-produced good they are.
Still, great watch, absurd quality, though not worth any more than €5000 to me. Diminishing returns are no joke, and with how simple and pedestrian Rolex watches are, inside and out, there’s no way I’m giving them €11k against something like a SeaQ, which is borderline high horology.
Omega is way too thick. Rolie any day of the week
