The O21732422101003 belongs to the fourth generation of the Seamaster Planet Ocean, unveiled in 2025 to mark the line's 20th anniversary. Collectors already call it the "Orange PO 4G," or simply the "PO 42" — a 42 millimeter case, an orange matte dial with Arabic numerals, and a ceramic bezel in orange enamel with a 60-minute scale. The biggest break with tradition: for the first time since the series launched in 2005, the helium escape valve is gone entirely. A sealed titanium inner ring makes it structurally unnecessary, a technical decision that recalibrates the whole PO philosophy.
## Cal. 8912: the Flattest Caliber in PO History
At its heart sits the newly developed Caliber 8912, a dedicated no-date movement built specifically for this fourth generation. It brings the case down to 13.79 millimeters thick, slimmer than any generation before it. Gen 3 ran from 2016 to 2024 at 39.5 and 43.5 millimeters with the Cal. 8900/8800, preceded by Gen 2's Cal. 8500, and before that Gen 1's Cal. 2500C. Set against that history, the 42 millimeter case looks almost delicate.
## A 6,700-Franc Starting Price, and What It Really Means
Omega prices the O21732422101003 from 6,700 Swiss francs for the rubber strap version, rising to 7,200 francs in steel. For collectors already keeping an eye on the "Slim PO" or the "PO600M 42 Orange/Black," the appeal has less to do with price than with the break from two decades of construction. A quarter-century of Planet Ocean history, compressed into a 13.79 millimeter case with no HEV — that's the real substance references like this one draw on to earn their place in a collection.
Brand profile: Omega
Omega is the second most counterfeited Swiss watch brand. The Speedmaster and Seamaster are especially targeted. Pay close attention to movement details (Co-Axial) and dial textures.
- Speedmaster: The chronograph reset hand must snap back precisely to 12 o'clock — fakes stop 1–3 seconds off or wobble
- Speedmaster (Hesalite): The Omega logo is micro-laser-etched on the UNDERSIDE of the Hesalite crystal — only visible at a specific angle and in the right light — fakes omit it or place it incorrectly
- Seamaster: The wave-pattern dial must be ENGRAVED (tactile relief) — printed/flat wave lines = fake
- DON (Dot Over Ninety): small dot ABOVE the '90' on the Speedmaster tachymeter bezel — position/size often wrong on fakes
Serial number format: Omega serial number: 8-digit number on the caseback or between the lugs (on older models). Since ~2018 engraved on the caseback at 6 o'clock. Format: purely numeric. Verifiable on the Omega website with an extract from the archive.
