Question on The Planet Ocean Crown Guard
I am curious about Omega's philosophy on the minimalist crown guard design for the heavy duty Planet Ocean dive watches. Omega provides a very pronounced guard on the Diver 300 and the Ploprof series crown guard is extreme, yet the PO shares the Aqua Terra crown guard design. Does anyone know if Omega has ever publicly stated their reasoning for such minimalist protection on a 600m rated diver?
I have had my PO for about 3 weeks now and I really like it. This is not a complaint, just curiosity on the apparent "blip" in design language. I am sure there is a good reason for it, but what that reason could be escapes me.
