I became a grownup today.. the big 30! My lovely wife got me my first proper watch. A nice shiny Seamaster Planet Ocean. I love it and I just thought I'd share my excitement with fellow PHers!

I have this one. Black face, black bezel.



I also have the brown alligator leather strap on order so I can change the look every now and again.

42mm or 45mm

I got the 45mm and got a cramp in my elbow after wearing it the first day as it weighed so much!

Haha! I have the 42mm but I think that has a nice quality weight to it though. The alligator strap makes a big difference and for £150 you can change the way your watch looks dramatically. The strap is still on order, but should be with me soon.

Good choice I've just acquired this one:



And I too have ordered a strap - orange alligator - for the same reasons as you:



(been waiting 3 weeks now for the strap frown)
