Looks great on you; I like the size.
Is that the "new" PO or a prior year's? I know there's a big debate over whether or not to go ceramic with POs, but it seems like such a great watch either way. I'm a big fan of the movement (have co-axial SMP).

Thanks for the kind words on how it looks.
It is the older PO (circa 2009). I am really warming to the matte bezel look of the new ones - must resist the urge to upgrade...

Yours looks great, yes, but I'm not going to help you resist. Those matte bezels are PERFECT and so modern looking. Omega at its best, really.

Longines Conquest Heritage re-issue (c. 2006). 35mm Hesalite version.
I think it is too small on me. Thoughts.
Thinking of selling and getting the 2 register Longines Master Chrono as my only dress watch for now. Then save for my grail rose gold Reverso.

Nice looking watch and the perfect size for you. Anything bigger would be pushing your good taste.
And FWIW your suggested "upgrade" is nice as well but it isn't a dress watch...

Looks good, and for dress watches I wouldn't push the whole size thing. I would have guessed 39mm.
