In the Phelps interview with Bob Costas tonight, I think Micheal was wearing a Speedmaster. I never got a solid look at the dial and at one point, I thought it might have been a PO Chrono as well. Did anyone see the interview and see the watch?  Edit: I just got a better look at it and another news broadcast. Definitely looks like some sort of Speedmaster but one I've never seen before.   |

I hate to say it, but I just can't get into it this year.
Don't know why, I'm usually glued to the TV during the Olympics.

I saw this, the black bezel and the pushers remind of the speedmaster but for some reason I can't say for sure. Hmm |

On live TV, I went back and forth between black and blue on the dial color, so it could be a Ti model. I can't place the model - maybe vintage? |

Spotted most of them Roger, we're love the olympics in our house. Love watching all the sports, loved the trampoline last Friday. The cycling is awesome, the whole thing is ace.

It's either the steel (black dial) or Ti (blue dial) version of the Dark Side of the Moon. Didn't even know they made it in SS or Ti.  |

Am I the only one watching the Olympic Games? Nope we're watching up here. The Olympics are odd entertainment. When else would you spend a perfect summer day inside watching such weird sports as pommel horse, synchronized diving, trampoline and others..? |

You have eagle eyes Roger My wife calls it an obsession! Although, truth be told, she now points watches out to me occasionally and asks "what's that one?"  |

Omega game him a specially engraved PO in SS at the Omega house in Rio this week. They should have done it in platinum! I thought I saw a white PO on his fiancé's wrist earlier in the Olympics when she was in the stands but wasn't sure - good catch! |
