Omega Planet Ocean GMT with blue face & bezel

Recommended Posts

Technojunkie

I'm just about to order this watch from a TD but have noticed on all the TD's websites that the blue of the face and bezel does not seem to match that of the gen. Is this just the lighting in the pic's and, on the wrist, the colour of the rep is the same as the gen or, is the blue on the rep significantly different to the gen ? Perhaps anyone that owns this watch could please advise !

Ok, I get your point. The second one was lifted straight from the Omega website and the first one seems to be representative of how the watch looks on all the TD's pages.

I found one thread about the watch but the pictures the OP posted are no longer available. The other pictures posted on the thread, with the blue rubber strap, are of a gen (I think).

Well..I´m not sure if it´s a gen or not but I don´t think the pic you posted does the rep justice, is it a cheap rep?

Certainly not, but maybe just a "cheap" picture !

Post 70 is a rep, he posts that he bought it from the OP of that thread (HWG)...PM him and ask if he has any pic´s he can share.

Ok, I've been looking on the TS Watch website and there seem to be three different versions of this watch and the blue seems to be a different shade on each version. The main difference is the movement (2813, 2824 and 2836-2) but there are also some other differences being (crown, Hev) so I'll need to email the TD to be more specific.

The watch you are looking for is from the BP maker.

http://www.p-cls.com/omcpogmt103-pocean-ceramic-blue-ssss-swiss-2836-p-15038.html or

http://www.tswatchltd.com/14821-om14821.html

 

Main tell is the bracelet.

BP maker's has the correct (to gen) clasp and screw held links. All others have wrong bracelet clasp and pin held links.

Other wrongs are colour of dial and thickness of bezel.

 

More pics of mine,

Does anyone that owns the BP version of this watch have any problems with a "fading bezel" or has this now been sorted ?

The numbers are engraved into the SS bezel and paint filled. No fading issues as the numbers aren't printed on.

(BP maker watch, can't vouch for the others as I've not seen one)

Is it just me or the numbers on the bezel is a bit misaligned? The distance between the '10' number and the '20' from the crystal is different.

Other then that it's absolutely beautiful!

A bit off maybe, but pictures on dealer sites aren't, so maybe just mine.

The only 'fuck' you'll get from me, is part of the statement "I don't give a **** "

It's a replica and not only do I accept that, I expect it. They ALL have flaws.

I think all the blue GMT with the orange numbers on the bezel have this little flaw. On Andrews site there are QC witch shows the Same flaw. I have ordered this gmt and mine also has it. And i saw someone else on this forum with this watch with the same bezel.

This watch is such a stunner i can live with that. ;)

Not something I would have noticed but, now that you've pointed it out, I can see it. Certainly something to look out for when I get my QC pic's. Not sure that it is common to "all" of this model as the bezel of the watch in the main picture from the PC website is perfect.

Yep. I also checked on some sites and they all have it for some reason.

But don't get me wrong, this watch is the first on my wishlist! Really amazing watch.
