Olly 0 Posted February 18, 2014 Hi chaps, This looks to be a standard Omega Planet ocean with a 8500c Ceramic bezel assembly ? Is this even possible with there being 2 different bezel structures ? Im quite interested in building one http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/DLC-Omega-Seamaster-Planet-Ocean-XL-J-Bond-diver-CERAMIC-bezel-like-liquid-metal-/201037075444?pt=UK_Jewelery_Watches_Watches_MensWatches_GL&hash=item2ecebe53f4 What do you'll think ?

Wriggles 12 Posted February 18, 2014 I'd say if it is gen that anyone who aftermarket DLC's a gen PO is an idiot. Omega warranty card says Glasgow, the other receipt for whatever the hell it is (appears to be an "Omega" sales receipt) comes from somewhere in Greece Won't claim to be an expert on picking out dodgy PO's but doesn't sit right with me Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I just thinks its wrong they're such a classic as they are. Each to their own though Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RichardMiami 4 Posted February 18, 2014 Looks painted to me. PVD Planet Ocean. Kinda sorta like the Pro-hunter series Rollies But it says this in the ad: a 100% genuine Omega (NOT aftermarket) ceramic (scratch proof) bezel (from the new Planet Ocean model) and with DLC (Diamond Like Carbon) coated bracelet and brand new (never used) genuine omega rubber strap with DLC coated buckle (so you get 2 straps!) but later he says Plus you cannot order this ceramic bezel from Omega (nor is available from ofrei.com, who sells original Omega parts). Nor will Omega sell it officially separately (cause they want you to buy the new model). Plus if you ask Omega service centers to make this change for you, most chances are they will decline! ( bottom line is that while it looks great, I wouldn't go near this one on a bet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
