I have two friends and neighbors that have the Rolex. I have admired the watch for a long time. Last month my wife surprised me with a 45mm PO. Everything about this watch is awesome -- the large size, the dial, the broad arrow hands, the night-time luminocity, the great-looking bracelet and clasp, the 2000 ft. rating, and the anti-reflective domed crystal. Even the bright orange tip of the second hand is not only functionally useful, but a nice look. Omega says the co-axial movement only needs service every 10 years -- how great is that! I never take it off, not even to sleep, and it has consistenly kept +1 second per day.
As far as pure satisfaction of ownership, I am more than satisfied and would not trade my PO for my friends' Rolexes. Would I want to add a Rolex Sea Dweller to my collection? Yes, but not at the sacrifice of my PO. In short, get the PO. You will not regret it.
