Luxuracer 14 Posted October 12, 2018 I just saw this new release on Trusty Time. It's the OMF Omega Planet Ocean LMPO 42mm 1948 V2 A2824 I am a big fan of the Noob LMPO. I have the V4 with second hand mod which I am putting a gen ETA2824-2 in it as we speak. Personally, I think it is the best rep Omega on the market.

FoxWilde 155 Posted October 12, 2018 Looks like another punch to my wallet. Payment sent! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GingerApple 7,285 Posted October 12, 2018 I don't like that pearl. I've no idea if it's Gen like, but either way, it looks like it's unfinished or that they ran out of lume for it. The rest looks fine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The pearl on the Noob LMPO looks a lot better. 9 minutes ago, FoxWilde said: Looks like another punch to my wallet. Payment sent! There are pro and con comparing to the Noob. I will try to see if I can do a side-by-side comparison. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The best looking Omega Planet Ocean ... and also the best Omega repped .... in my opinion. You can wear it in any occasion. It even wears really nice as a dress watch.

Adrian8741 0 Posted October 12, 2018 Thanks for the heads-up, decided an Omega will be my next purchase but having difficulty figuring it exactly which one. Intrigued by the dial on the OMF release but that pearl does look odd. Maybe we'll need to wait to see if that was just an anomaly on the watch they've pictured. Want to see some pics of that dial under daylight, too! Can I ask those in the know how the 42mm POs wear, perhaps in comparison to 44mm Pams? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Buddhabar 4,544 Posted October 13, 2018 Overall it looks great, but still debatable the window of the date (horrible) and from the video the lume seems to me poor. I prefer Noob manufacture. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I prefer Noob manufacture. That date window cutout looks pretty rough. I'll be curious how a production model compared. I'm also curious how the bracelet finish is. I've had an OMF GMT seamaster and the bracelet was much rougher and less refined than my noob CrPO and LMPO. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Killedby 0 Posted October 13, 2018 This one looks pretty good, if it wasn't for that pearl. I think Noob is still betterInviato dal mio Redmi Note 5 utilizzando Tapatalk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Don't get me wrong I love my om factory zr02 but the bezel and pearl position to me sticks out like a sore thumb to me. My older spec Crpo from noob however pearl and bezel look so good. I find it strange say a v4 Sub is more accurate than a high end omega Edited October 14, 2018 by bigporl Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
drifterr 0 Posted October 14, 2018 I have had the noob lmpo and keen to check out this omf just for the dial. I find people fail to mention noob dial looks nothing like gen lmpo, where as omf I can certainly see the similaritiesAny thoughts on this ?Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
