Re: Planet Ocean or De Ville Co-Axial Power Reserv
In Response To: Planet Ocean or De Ville Co-Axial Power Reserve ()

: Was going to buy a plant ocean then saw the De
: Ville Co-Axial Power Reservee like them both
: but can only have one :-( thoughts please
: :-)

It all depends on your needs. The two watches basically have the same movement, with the DeVille having the added power reserve module. The DeVille is strictly a dress watch, while the Planet Ocean is a sporty diver's watch. The Panet Ocean is MUCH thicker, larger, and heavier.

I guess what I'm saying is that these two models are really night and day, so it's like comparing apples to oranges. Since they both have equal quality movements, go with the watch that best suits your needs, be it a dress watch or a rugged sports watch.
