    The orange PO is, I think, the best of the bunch but the orange strap is definitely too much. The best strap is the black with the orange stitching. Here's my old one:

    Just get it on a bracelet, and the watch will look luvverly, I do love orange BTW. Not sure about the 'gayness' thing though. Not a lover of the strap option when you have all that air (or hairs) showing through from lugs to caseband.
    Probably better looking overall on rubber. Do Omega do an orange rubber?

    Don't worry Dahhhhling! No self respecting queen would be seen dead wearing THAT strap.

    No offence to the watch or full on raging, mincing, limp wristed puffs.
    I believe full on raging, mincing, limp wrested puffs speak very highly of you, Gray...

    Alex, lose the strap and go black with orange stitch and your sexuality will never be challenged again...

    I think your just missing a yellow "Live Strong" rubber bracelet for a matching accessory to complete the look.

    Be honest. Is this a bit gay?

    It'll look better once the orange is dirty and faded.

    Right now it looks a bit dandy. Not gay as such, but somewhat like you're popping your hand out of the closet for a little wave.

    Yes it is gay on this band! The watch itself is stunning! I would prefer it on a black leather.

    Definitely more Gok Wan than Chuck Norris. Beautiful watch, just ditch the strap.

  17. #67
    Totally homo, ditch both. The watch itself is too big, makes you look like a taker and not a giver.

    Interesting but not my cup of tea. However if you like it then thats great:-)

    The Orange bezel is Ok, but I think a bit much with the strap.

  21. #71
    The bezel is fine but it is a tad over the top with the strap. I'd go with a bracelet or the black strap with orange stitching as above.

    Great watch maybe needs a new strap, black with orange stitching perhaps.

    Its a sporty dial so it needs a sporty strap and the most obvious and best choice would be the standard black rubber or the orange rubber at a push

    Is it just to add more weight to your pulling power during a reach around ? Pillow biter !

    I think the PO looks a lot less orange in reality than in photos.
    More of a tasteful copper orange than the tangerine they appear in pics.
    Having said that, the orange strap is a step too far.
    If you keep it on that, you may as well change your name to Alan Carr.
    Put it on a black strap with orange stitching.

    Errrrmmmm, no.

    Just ditch the strap, though, and you're left with a striking diver.

    If you wish to add extra tackiness and save a shedload of cash, I recommend taking a look at Christopher Ward's latest manifestation of their C60, where to my eyes you have the added attraction of a bezel-strap orange mismatch -



    Again, if you put that on a black rubber strap, or take their bracelet option, you lose all the tack.

    Gay? YES. AND GINGER, EEWWW. I really don't like the P.O with the orange bezel.

    Nothing wrong with being gay. However if you are heterosexually orientated I would seriously consider a new strap. The watch itself is sexually neutral but is being transvestited by the strap.

  34. #84
    Oh man i had it on the orange strap for a while i thought it looked ok, and trust me i don't pack fudge!

    I think its already established that there IS in fact a watch that says it far better...

    Re: Be honest. Is this a bit gay?

    I feel I should chime in here. I'm wearing my Everest today on a dark brown leather toshi, and tomorrow I will be windsurfing, so will wear my pre18q on grey NATO so I suppose that makes those gay watches. Which means you're safe with your gaudy orange monstrosity.

    That PO is a bit of a modern classic...but on the bracelet. That orange strap is too much.

    The orange is very different hen the standard black ones. The strap is a little too much for me. Would prefer black rubber , maybe isofrane?
