Quite Exquisite Timepiece, August 16, 2008
This review is from: Omega Seamaster Planet Ocean Olympic Timeless Collection Black Mens Watch 222.32.46.50.01.001 (Watch)
This is a pretty hot watch that has been advertised frequently during the Beijing Olympics Games but it is not part of the official Beijing Collection from Omega quite surprisingly despite the frequent commercials. It is a certified chronometer which means its pretty accurate for an automatic watch. It is basically a modified Planet Ocean and the luminous markers gone and replaced with arabic numbers. This along with the leather-like stitched rubber band gives it an authetic old-style look. There is an adjustable bezel and a chronograph. It also has a unique luminous second hand not found on most watches in addition to luminous hour and minute hands. The band buckle is the most efficient and practical I ever encountered. But what makes this an Olympics Edition is the tiny meticulously crafted 5 colored rings opposite of the second hand pointer. A beautiful piece of working art.
