Yeah, well, now you are talking about another great watch at its price point. Better make the decision fast on that one. It has been discontinued. Still available, but currently not in production.

My two c worth. I would narrow it down to the PO or the Speedy Pro. I have both the PO and the black/black 300 diver and can honestly say, the PO gets all the wrist time. Now if price is a problem, yeah surely the black diver is a much better deal, but you will probably end up lusting after the PO in the long run. If you want a diver, get the PO. If you want a chronograph, get the Speedy pro, or if you want both, I would suggest the PO Chrono. Water resistance with the speedy is not good (50m) and it has no date and its manual wind. The PO Chrono is the complete package, albeit a little pricey.

Have I made the decision harder for you yet? It doesn't matter which one you get, you will end up wanting the other one, or more watches. Omega just has too many great watches to settle for just one.
