Ploprof rep in titanium

Recommended Posts

Helmut Wong

I tried on the titanium ploprof in the omega store and I've been bitten by the bug again. It wears really small due to the shark mesh bracelet, and the lighter weight makes it easier to wear.

I'm on the lookout for a reasonably priced gen and whilst researching I came across some reps.

I cant find any info on it. I've checked some of the trusted dealer sites and cant find anything.

Is it a scam?

Difficult to source a rep of these now… does it have to be Omega?  There are a few homages out there https://www.chronopolis.co.uk/blogs/news/the-5-best-affordable-alternatives-to-the-omega-ploprof?utm_content=cmp-true

Thanks for the info.

To be honest I'm pretty much committed to buying a gen ploprof in the titanium.

I was just surprised when I stumbled across the rep listed above.  It can also be found on a few other sites when you google replica titanium ploprof.

Just wondering if anyone has any info on it.  My guess is it's a scam.

Every single watch they sell is £518.30. That's an instant red flag for me!

Well spotted.

I've searched on every rep watch site and reddit and  cant find any info on a new replica ploprof.

Does this titanium rep even exist?

I've not heard of a PloProf rep for years. @Popperini cornered the market a while back, and has all of them!

"I've not heard of a PloProf rep for years."

My thoughts exactly.

"Popperini cornered the market a while back, and has all of them!"

Lol, I sold my white ploprof to him.

Hope it's still going strong.

Hi @Helmut Wong!

Yeah the white Ploppy's still going strong, while I resist frequent pleadings to sell it...

There's no titanium Ploppy rep. If there was, the fans would be screaming the place down about it. Any you see are, as you rightly suspected, a scam.

I think that the only way you are going to get close is to get one of the Steeldive homages, which I think may still be readily available?

If you are stuck on Titanium the LM-7 https://ocean7watchco.com/products/lm-7-professional-hardened-titanium-diver is just that.  Also Swiss Movement & genuine depth rating 1250 meters.  More expensive than the other homages at £1199 . .. additionally there may also be VAT & Import charges if in the UK.KjMkbD.webp

Every now and then... In fact (inspired by this thread) I almost wore one today. :D 

But opted for a Willard Seiko instead - cos a watch buddy recently asked for a pic of it!
