By the looks of it , no. Nobody got this one.

You have BIN crazy or what ??

I think you guys, you have BIN here a lot. I think I BINcoming crazy too.

BIN the way, what is all this about ????

Normally 1 out of 10.

If you order complicated watches (chronos , GMT , double date windows etc...) , is 1 out 5.

I'll be wearing this for a change

That looks like genuine to me.

Very nice

Joshua ....... it was you ???

@panerai153: Arthur , you are aboselutely correct to be upset. Give him some time (not much ....if he is a student he will have plenty of time ... believe me) ... and if he des not react ... name him.

That situation also reminds me that we should apply the same rules of "buying from a dealer" to "buy or trade from and with a member".

Dealers get reviews. Members too. Though we sometimes forget to pay attention to the trading / members review section.

A member with a high "post number" not necesarrily is a good and trustfull member. I am not saying that this guy belongs to this category (... not yet any way) but we had various cases likes this in the old RWG.

Any way ... good luck Arthur. Hope it resolves well for you.

UPDATE: My dealer very generously said he will send me a replacement. Don't know if I should say who it is, but I'm new here so I'll leave it be for now. This turned around an otherwise awful day for me. Thanks so much! you know who you are....

Of course you should name the dealer.

His attitude is an added value to him/her.

Awesome sport and dressy watch too.

Randy , is that baby 40 mm (excl crown) ???

BTW: WM sells a very similar one at TRC.

Amazing watches both.

Are these kind of watches which we will never see a rep of them.

Is not that are hard to replicate (...we have plenty of evidences that our chinese repmakers can absolutely replicate anything they want). Is that their understanding of fashion and market demand not always is alligned with the occidental world.

We have seen them producing reps of some crappy watches of mid level firms (De Witt , Rado , Fendi etc....fan of these pls excuse me) or even crappy watches and crappy reps from high end brand names (Rlxes full of diamonds and leopardo skins etc) ..... but I am afraid that we will never see any good reps (or no reps at all) form watches like Ebel , Ulysse Nardin, Tag Autavia or Monaco, Eberhard , Sobrino y Cuervos, Glashutte, .... so many to mention.

Any way .... with moaning I am not going to gain anything and they (China repmakers) will produce what they feel coninient and not what I like.

Ebel ... , great watch and good find By-Tor.

Update

Watchhonpo already has it with black date wheel.

Sorry... I've already given them both away. They were so close in size that looking at them face-on compared to a SD makes them both look big. Remember a SD is a 40mm watch. Somehow the darker orange of Andrew's made the watch look a bit smaller than it really is, while Neil's light orange bezel made the face "open up" and look bigger.

Personally I like the dark orange more. Just my preference.

Its ok Nanuq. Thanks any way. This week I will pop up into a local Omega dealer and try them both on my wrist.

What a thread........

What do you guys have for breakfast ??? .......

BTW: Still I am not sure that "pro expert dan" (..... I detect some kind of hidden of humour in his words) knows what is the true about his watch. :cc_confused:

Even though I was after the black bezel (dont like orange watches) .... well here are my comments regarding this:

http://www.rwg.cc/members/index.php?s=&amp...st&p=136633

@MAHLER: Where did you found that TAG pic from PT ???

Is not on his site: http://www.precioustime-uk.com/

They look nice.

My bro wanted one of these last year. Now I will ask him again.

Well, did'nt had the time to finish my words and just 24 hours later, Andy (...presumably others will follow soon) came up with the 6th version on the 45 mm version.

http://www.trustytime.com/index.php?main_p...products_id=803

From what I can see this version has improved (decreased) the gap of the date window now much closer to the 3 hour marker.

The min hand now also looks longer and better.

The orange numbers are now thiner and better.

Only fault I can see is that the "omega logo" is bigger than the genuine.

Things are moving fast in this industry.

I will wait few more months .... even though it takes me a lot of "self control" not to pull the trigger.

A clear "evidence" of a replica "crime".

Andreas, I did a photo comparison of the two sizes of POs out there, compared to a Sea-dweller. You can see that neither PO is a "small" watch. Enjoy!

@Nanuq: That's great.

It will be too much (if and whenever you have some time ) to ask for a pic of the DRSD and Andrews 42,5 PO side by side both looking at me

Thanks

He does, I got it, very nice. It looks kind of small on my wrist, but the 45 is way off. I am thinking of getting genuine 45 some day, but would not go for the rep. But 42 is very good. Paul's is spot on for a great price

..... yeah , ... but Paul ... no PayPaul

Any way, these are the three options on the 42.5 PO with orange numbers and black bezel as of today:

Paul 5th gen: http://www.wo-mart.com/product_info.php?cP...roducts_id=1138

Andys 4th gen: http://www.trustytime.com/index.php?main_p...products_id=719

Jos latest: http://perfect-clones.com/omse10009-seamas...242-p-1433.html

I think that more or less all of them are the same watches. All of them amongst other flaws already mentioned here like size of the min hand etc..., also have (...as I can tell from the pics)

- "Omega logo" far too close to the "omega" wording.

- Orange numbers thicker than genuine

.... ..... I think I will wait few more months. Chinese rep makers they should come up with new versions and models around year end for the Christmas gift season.

In the mean time, I will check the size (42,5 vs 45) in person.

Thank you all guys.

i love my 42 here is the same one but with orange bezel , it may help u figure out why this size is the better one

planet ocean

hope this helps

joe

Thanks Joe

There are no rules forbidding the sale of Knives on here and I don't suspect there will be one.

I fully agree.

Personally I dont like knifes of that kind or any kind of arms but if people want to sell them and there others that they want to buy them , then thats ok with me.

Where I live , both knifes and fire arms are illegal.

People cannot carry them outside their houses. Even inside your house (and under self defense) you cannot use a fire arm if you dont have a lisence.

Any way ..... we have seen in the past both Neil and Narika, selling knifes and nothing happend.

In the old RWG there was a guy selling fire arms from time time.

That was even worse of course.

Thanks By-Tor.

That was much more than I was expected.

So the best version on 42,5 mm is this ??? :

http://www.trustytime.com/index.php?main_p...products_id=719

(.... ok .... there are other dealers that also have it).

You see , I m doubting about the 42,5 and the 45 mm (with this combo: blck bezel and orange numbers).

42,5 mm excl crown is not a small watch !!!!!!

What I think I need to do before I decide is to physically pop up in to a local Omega dealer and compare both versions on my wrist.

Again , many thanks By-Tor.

Cheers,

Andreas

Good morning Guys ,

I have a rather simple question which I cannot find the answer even after reading By-Tor's and Cwai's excellent reviews (... and also comments that other PO lovers have made so far).

I am after a PO (non chrono - and with black bezel and orange numbers ) and I am not sure about the size to pick up.

So here goes the question:

Is the (on the 5th or 4th gen only, .....can't tell which is the latest )

- Reg size 42,5 mm, is excl or incl crown ?

- Big size 45 mm (Andy has one that says 45,5 mm), is excl or incl crown ?

-----------------------------------------------------------------

Of course I have some more questions about the PO thing which I am afraid there are no easy answers.

Questions like:

- Are the Chinese rep makers thinking to bring up a 6th improved version.... or whatever gen, soon ???

I know. Its like asking what will be a wheather forecast next year from now !!!

- Are they going to come with a better version of the PO Chrono ???? Possibly yes early next year , but who really knows.

---------------------------------------------------------------------

Any way .... if you only answer my first question about the size , I will more than happy.

Many thanks

What do you guys think of the new golf rep? Besides the strap and the un-boldy letters in the tag logo, if this tag has same specs as joshua's black golf, and ,i'd say this is a great gift for the lady this christmas, classy and sporty. The feedback on the black tag are all positive, specially on the mechanical clasp and feel wich seem to be the complications on the watch.

Have you ever thought that this watch is maybe a bit too big for a female wrist ????

It is 36,5 mm square.

But again dont know , some ladys like big watches.

Hey....... , long time no see any Polls around here.

Are we starting all over again ????

Well , then ok , me first: I HATE POLLS and no ..... I dont use the chronos.
