Thanks so much for your comment! 😊

Thanks Matthew! I LOVE the ‘57 - congratulations!

The lower right button will switch between date and time.

@@DougsPerspective it doesnt for me. We have the same model.

Thank you! 😊

Thanks Brad!

Thanks for your comment! It is big, but not too big or uncomfortable in any way.

To be honest, I got rid of this one and got the silver version. The silver has no long term dings or scratches.

Why did you get rid of it? is it due to color peel off? I saw few photos on reddit where the black color peeled off from the metal enclosure.

Thank you!

I still wear and live my Rolexes, but this is an incredible watch on its own. And that it is a bit more under the radar is a plus.

Hi Desma, I do prefer the black over the white. Having said that, the white is a stunning watch … I’m just a black dial kind of guy.

I’ve had it for 3+ years and it is still in PERFECT condition. It is a Bosphorus watch roll - I highly recommend their products!

@@DougsPerspective I ment the watches in it, but thanks for the tip anyway :)

Hi Bruno, yes that dial looks incredible in clear, bright light. 😁

I understand your position. And if I could only keep one … I would keep my green bezel Sub. But the SMP is still an incredible watch and DEFINITELY the second choice for me over any other diver (Blancpain, etc). You are correct, the SMP is a bit beefier vs the Sub and looks better on a larger wrist (7+ inch). I recently took my SMP on a two week Mediterranean cruise through Italy, Greece, and Malta and it was the perfect watch. I would have felt more self conscious wearing my “Starbucks” with all of the negative attention it could garner. I am fortunate to have multiple nice watches (3 Rolex, 1 SMP, 1 Cartier Santos, 1 Grand Seiko, and 1 Tag Heuer Monaco) so I wear different watches for different moods & situations.

@@DougsPerspective my collection is similar with Rolex, Panerai, GS and even Tag. Each has a role and situation, similar to what you wrote. And I definitely understand the point about safety. Actually, that’s the only aspect that I don’t like about my two Rolex watches, I have to be more cautious where and how I wear them. Fortunately, I live somewhere safe. Traveling is a different matter

I have an Omega SMP Diver 300 … just did not wear it that day. Here it is at the Acropolis in Greece czcams.com/users/shortsqem4RZP34O8?si=ut2wUD0PixvhvlC0

@@DougsPerspective exxxxxxxcellent!😀

Hey Alex, I love them both but lately I’ve been into the Starbucks more. The Batgirl is incredible but a bit more fancy and I dig the casual vibe of the Sub.

Actually, the OP36 Tiffany is my Mom’s. But the others are and I really enjoy them. 😊

Thanks Dan! Actually, get asked that question often about my shirts 😁 It is from Johnston & Murphy (yes, the shoe company).

@DougsPerspective Thanks! I'll look into them.

Hi Justin, I hope they fix yours too! Mine is running fine since they serviced it.

Hi Wesam, thank you! Some call it the Batman, some the Batgirl, and some call it the Bruce Wayne.

@@DougsPerspective got it. Thank you

Hi Mike, ironically I put my name down for a OP41 in blue. I tried one on and it fit really well on my 7.25” / 184mm wrist. Interestingly, the watch is actually 39.5mm and not 41mm.

Mine came with buckle (which is fine), but I would have preferred deployment if it was available. The deployment version can only be purchased (at this time) as a second strap. I did purchase the Omega mesh bracelet for this watch and it has the deployment - which is awesome!

I’ve been very fortunate - my Rolex AD has been wonderful! But I know not every person has had a similar experience.

I own an Omega SMP 300 too - both great watches!

Yes, you’re correct. When I first saw this watch, it was a video from Jenny Elle. She had a panda face on the thumbnail of her video … so I thought everyone was calling it a panda.

Hi Lukas, happy birthday! I hope you got your silver CasiOak - congratulations!

Hey Julien, I agree - those kits are nice! I’ve never really modded watches before and just enjoy them straight from the factory. But, maybe I should try it? Thanks! 👍

@@DougsPerspective Maybe not , yes they look nice and so many different variants that Casio don't offer , which is nice . Is the build quality there , how would you know if you haven't handled one ? I do intend on building one though will be staying well away from the ones fraudulently labelled as Casio . I don't support that sort of thing .

@@DougsPerspective Well they are so affordable , why not ?

@@DougsPerspective I want a rose gold 5600 kit , oddly in pictures none have looked quite as good as the original , yet the silver / gold kits look virtually indistinguishable , strange ?

@@DougsPerspective Don't you think it would be fun modifying a watch to your liking ?

Thank you! 😊

Hey JoPaCo, I’m glad it helped 👊😁

Hey Mark, yes we got back from 2 weeks in Europe on Sunday. I hope you are doing well! 😊

Hey Casey, I agree, the most versatile color would be black. I have several black dialed watches so the blue fits better in my collection. But you can’t go wrong with either.

Hi Bae, I like the black dial more. However, the white is quite beautiful, it just didn’t last long in my collection whereas I still have my black one.

Hi Bae, I prefer the black dial.

I am sorry to hear this Louis - they certainly are beautiful watches and if QC & reliability are not there, it is a “hollow product.” What other watches do you have and like?

Hi Tariq, I do have “not perfect” eyesight up close and the green can be a challenge to see at times like lower light conditions. Also, the digital display on the green is also harder to see vs silver one.

@@DougsPerspective Oh okay… thank you for the info 😀

Hi Kevin, I have a new SMP that I purchased after this video. Here is the new one czcams.com/video/3rnKbclHDiQ/video.htmlsi=oJpPoVaysGFgqhia

@@DougsPerspective very nice too Doug.!..looks like a real beauty..keep up the amazing content!

Yes it is Austin!

Thank you Greg!

Thank you Artur!

Thanks Alan! :)

Hi Bae, I actually owned the white one. It is a beautiful watch. Having said that, I flipped it for the blue, and now the black. Here’s a video of my former white one … czcams.com/video/nWfddteRR7I/video.htmlsi=S_WPfzACN1XxGaBC

I am so sorry to hear you are experiencing this Bryce - I hope they fix it and you can connect again with your beautiful Santos!

Thanks for your comment - I’m glad my video helped you 😊

Unfortunately I don’t know. I hope someone can help out.

Hi Dan, thanks for your nice comments - I’m glad you liked the video!

Hi Hect, I hope yours got sorted. Since mine has returned from servicing, it has been fine.

Hey Captain Z, I agree, I don’t like that Omega uses AR coating on the outside of the crystal. No problems with mine. Interestingly, I had a Skyfall AT a few years ago and the AR coating did scratch and Omega DID replace the entire crystal for free under warranty.

Thank you Bram!

Hi Robby, I like the green but ultimately decided on black.

@@DougsPerspective Good choice Doug! And enjoy the watch!)
