Hi,

I've decided to buy a quality replica Omega Seamaster Planet Ocean and my research has lead to this excellent site. I must admit I have mixed feelings about not buying the genuine article (which I still may do).but wanted to be sure before putting six grand on the table.

 

A utube review of good replicas indicated that Trusty Time was a good supplier of this particular watch and this is where I'm looking at present after noting this site is on your Good Supplier list. Open to other suggestions ....I'm looking for the basic 42mm version with orange numerals with black bezel.

I can't believe that the above site is selling the 8500ETA version for around $350.......(!)

Greetings fellow Aussie :gday_mate_haveabeer:

 

 

Most of the dealers carry POs and TT is on our trusted dealer list so you will get what you order.

Greets mate. TT is a good choice for a first buy, very easy to deal with.

Lots of folk buy the rep first to "road test" the watch, it's more common in gen circles than most would have you believe.

Welcome from the UK mate - funnily enough I was looking at buying a gen of exactly the same thing - couldn't justify the cost - ended up here. Mine says hello, also came from Andrew at TT and I love it. Happy hunting!

welcome from Adelaide. This is a great place to hang out. ( expensive though) I have both replicas and gen Rolexes and love them all. Amazingly my reps keep as good time as the gen!!

This is one of my favourites from Joshua at Perfect Clones

Welcome from Bonnie Scotland.

 

A word of caution: one rep is never enough, however you can rest easy in the knowledge that the brethren here are all in the same boat. We're all broke & dripping in watches :lol:

Thanks to everyone who has responded ....... a most unexpected welcome!

Good to know there is so much enthusiasm around for fine watches. And people are obtaining superbly built replicas that they are happy with.

 

I had a quick response from Andrew at Trusty Time re my PO enquiry. He indicated the ETA movement is genuine Swiss with minor Asian modifications for engraving.

 

A dealer is chasing me to buy a 45mm 2008 PO for around AU$3500......... I think I can have more fun for a lot less and get the later design with crystal back. Sites like this must be killing the used market (!)

Welcome.

 

Actually, if anything, sites like this help keep the used gen market buoyant. Lots of gen ownership here alongside the reps. :)

 

The PO is one of my favourite watches - here's mine (rep)

I just bought one this evening and hope to use it as a near-daily beater. I own one of the cheapish chronos which I'll sell once the PO arrives.

Yes I for one would have never considered any of the 3K+ Gens before joining this forum but now am, although with so many reps to try first my Gen purchase may be some time off!

Nice looking watch and very difficult to pick from a gen.

I'm about to order the black bezel version with orange markers.

Is Trusty Time the best supplier of the PO rep?
