I agree sunny. My LMPO arrived yesterday and now is on my wrist. Wow, what a beauty! I could have been ultra picky about the QC picks (I rejected one), but in real life size I don't even notice the slight deviation of the dial. The jeweler that re-sized my bracelet was raving about what a nice watch it was (and I also had my 15 year old gen Smp getting a new pin, which he didn't mention in his praise).
I think the only way someone would tell this watch is a rep is if they were standing next to you with a gen Liquidmetal, but the odds of that are 1948 in 7 billion!
Plus Angus has said if noob improves the dial he will offer it as a part. I see what you're saying cougar about demanding improvement, but in the same regard this is easily the best PO rep, and noob should be rewarded for delivering it, I mean at $300 it's crazy value to me.
