nunu78 1,743 Posted January 31, 2013 It looks like that caseback for 45 PO is not accurate either,as it says Liquidmetal which is not the case with 42 PO. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Regarding the case-back, yes it's not correct, but who cares. NO one sees the back. I think the movement decorations are some of the best I've ever seen on any rep (other than Panerai of course).

You'll get the qc pics later. The tracking number is used just to associate you with your order (and later for tracking).

Gen has kinda plated sign, and Liquidmetal sign on the caseback of 45mm ver is not so nice, letter "e" is not printed well. Horrible misprints on the mov-t: adjuste dto fiye wtf?

As per Genuine for Easy Reading Against Bezel Minute Index during Diving Anyone notice the sales pitch on Andrews description..... Easy to read the time whilst diving...

Kwt 11 Posted January 31, 2013 I saw this yesterday on his website and I thought it looked great albeit maybe a bit too much on what I would be willing to spend. It was good that he pointed out details like correct HE valve etc. Certainly looks smarter then the LM PO rep but that one probably will improve with time.

Captain Swoop 0 Posted January 31, 2013 lets face it, unless you give the watch to someone who has a gen or is as compulsive as some of the folks on here no one is going to know the difference. I would even think most owners of a gen wouldn't spot the differences unless they are watch 'fans' or had exactly the same model. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Higs 73 Posted January 31, 2013 The first thing I need to say (and I've said it before) is that I don't really understand the Omega range and the reps available very well. However a little while ago I bought a cheap/cheerful blue 'Ceramic' PO because I liked the look of it and understanding that it almost certainly isn't the greatest (closest to gen) rep out there. Just for my on-going education, can I ask the experts to cast an eye over it and tell me: where mine 'fails' as a rep against the gen where these new reps are better Cheers, Higs Meh, I'll stick with the one I already have. Can you both please post backcase pictures where "Professional" is engraved. Kind regards Haltec Sorry it's taken a few days to get a pic. It's not the greatest photo ever taken but I hope it's informative. Out of interest, what are you looking for? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rogerthat 0 Posted January 31, 2013 Yes though unclear if that spacing typo can be seen with the caseback screwed on It is on an edge that the bevel of the caseback may completely cover, I am not sure Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
