If money is no object, get the PO
In Response To: Which Omega ()

I have both the Seamaster Pro and the PO. The PO is a better watch, but it will cost you about a grand more, maybe less with a good discount. So if you have the extra cash, go with the PO, because you will probably lust for it later.

Also, as per your subsequent post on the Ebay listing, I would stay far away from Ebay for buying a watch. Lots of fakes out there. Post an inquiry looking for a good AD, and im sure you will get some recommendations of ADs that discount 25-30% off. If you are looking for used, I suggest trying the sales corner on one of the other watch forum sites, Timezone or Watchuseek.

As far as Breitling is concerned, I personally find them a bit overpriced (Not that Omega's aren't either). Most of their movements are "average". They do however Chronometer certify almost all of their watches, so they are not bad. Their dials are also too busy for my tastes.
