KBH 7 Posted June 29, 2010 Looks good to me. The bezel insert and pearl look good and it's the latest model with the modified A7750. It's the same newer model that every dealer can get. The only thing I can think of is to make sure from the dealer the chrono resets properly to zero since it's running in all the pictures. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

debian 0 Posted June 29, 2010 The 7750 movement is modified to have the subdials closer together, right? How is this affecting the reliability of the movement? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nope. Me neither and I was expecting to hear it was troublesome. And, all though that is a 44mm case, it seemed much smaller than the UPO when I had one of each last year.

RynO 0 Posted June 29, 2010 Much smaller ? What do you mean ? It is not 44 mm? Is it noticeable? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
debian 0 Posted June 29, 2010 I think I also need one of these Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KBH 7 Posted June 29, 2010 Much smaller ? What do you mean ? It is not 44 mm? Is it noticeable? I meant that to me it wore more like the 42mm Planet Ocean than the 45.5mm UPO. That's all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gB. 0 Posted July 1, 2010 Anyone know what top left crown is for? Is it a HE valve release on gen (kind of like the gen DSSD), but just for looks on the rep? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KBH 7 Posted July 1, 2010 Anyone know what top left crown is for? Is it a HE valve release on gen (kind of like the gen DSSD), but just for looks on the rep? Correct, it's an HE valve. Omega's valve are manual, where Rolex's are automatic. It's fully functional. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KBH 7 Posted July 1, 2010 It unscrews, just like a crown. Only difference is it only unscrews enough to let the pressure out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gB. 0 Posted July 1, 2010 Anyone seen this model with an orange bezel and this same blue dial? I am looking for this dial/bezel combination, but doesn't have to be the chrono version, can be just PO. Let me know . Thanks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gB. 0 Posted July 1, 2010 I believe what you are seeing is the blue tint from the AR on a black dial. Wow, you're right. I should have read the description better. Clearly states black dial...lol. Do you know if it comes in a blue dial, preferably the orange bezel/blue dial combo? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KBH 7 Posted July 1, 2010 Don't believe so. I've never seen a blue dial PO. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
