There are some very nice Seamaster and PO reps, but I would not rely on Toro’s reviews alone to guide you. I would suggest you go to the Omega section of RG and read through the various threads on those two watch models. Educate yourself before spending your hard earned funds before taking the plunge. Compare and contrast the the offerings from the various factories until you find the model you prefer to buy. Then contact Toro, and/or one of the other TDs to see if they are available. If not, you will have to wait until one comes up for sale in the M2M section, or you post a WANTED add.

Watches are a personal preference, different for everyone, so me or someone else telling you to buy this or that watch because it is the “best” usually does not work. But once you know which watch you like, and can live with the various issues that all reps have, then buying it and wearing it will bring you personal pleasure for a reasonable price.

Yes, I can see what you're saying. Toro's was more of a reference point, as I believe he has a sticky on the omega section. So I was just getting to grips with the lingo/terminology. I have been comparing a few PO and Seamasters on various TD's, it's just a bit daunting considering some of the prices can vary, but what look to be identical watches.
Fearful of taking the plunge on the cheaper option, only to be bitten, but I suppose that's the risk we all run now and again.
