Ditto the above, and if DSN has got his quality issues sorted now then the extra $100 will be worth it.

I think that you will be pleased with what you get in the end.

Welcome to the club!

Oh come one non of these parts have never been near cheese never mind switzerland, Swiss ETA means that it was made in an ETA factory in asia! The watch you will get is the best there is so dont worry just dont expect it to have a swiss stamp on its passport.

The rep one on leather

It was sunny for a change but the Gen will have better lume that is for sure.

The Yakmaster well it makes me Yak!

well not one duplicate from all we have seen so far 895120 894103 89 Pug 89439x Rxus 894545 SD4000 89452? 893765 21j 894130 894886 895145 21j 89410x 894562 89408? 894199 894060 894437 21j 89385X Looking good

I got luckyyy at work today i just on a break and i noticed a SFSO in white and stainless stood next to me, i stuck up a conversation about the twins we were wearing, His was 2 months old with a serial number starting with 108XXXX ( i would tell you the rest if i could remember it) I checked out the usual tells and weight, feel, texture ect and his was a gen, The second hand had a diamond shaped end with lume, i assume this is a newer model as the cataloge only shows the square one. There was one very supprising point to note though! The Date windows were exactly the same size!!!!!!!!!!! Other good points i could barley notice the difference in the S of Super The Pearl was the same The AR was the same Infact every thing was the same. In the end i told him mine was a rep and cost a lot less than his and he was supprised to say the least!!!! He then admitted he had a couple of reps at home and was interested where to find good ones So i pointed him in this direction. Shame i swapped to the leather last night as it would have been a better comparison. Sorry about the Photo but it was with my phone and very quick maybe some one could clean it a bit? I tried in photo editor but could not get much out of it.

I just managed to do a rep gen comparison at work have a look

Very Nice indeed

But i only just got here!

Thats a big wrist you have there mate!

Uh hows that then????????????

I really doupt that they have repped the movement, maybe the inking has come out after a good clean out.

Now that makes it a harder choice, what is your sister like? i think we need to A know more about your Sis and also hear a womans prospective on this (where is Vic when you need her) My wife and i Can both wear 47mm Pams but it is not every Lady that can do that, 39mm Aqua terra look great but have flaws (but what doesent) The Railmaster is near perfect on the face but not really for a Lady, my wife likes the EX2 with the cream face and the SFSO with the white( not really white but a champane cream) face. How about a white faced Pam??

Yopu have managed to be here for a year have 177 posts and have not bought a watch, that is will power, I would say the SuperDuperOcean or BCE maybe a UPO

No definatly not an omega shop. There might be a member that could do it for you in the states but failing that it would be up to Ziggy in Canada unless you can find a rep friendly shop, you might want to look at the older non affiliated watchsmiths shops, you might get luckyy. Have a good look about, if not there will be info here that will help you do it your self.

Another new one.

I thought Spanish was now the most spoken in US

Well that blows the 10 numbers theory out of the water! maybe we should start a real long and anoying thread about what our collectors dont lie about. LOL

You should be able to get the same movement from Jules Borel of O frie in the states and safe some postage, it will cost about $16 postage at the moment, Do you have the following tools:- hand removers hand setters a selection of screw drivers Power drill with hammer action Jewlers loupe Felling axe Bottle of Jack If so you are ready first drink the jack! BTW if you like the PO wait till you get a SuperDuperOcean! I know bond never wore one but he might have if it was not for product placement!

@ Dudru, Are you playing a little joke there or is that what your watch says? 7 fig starting with an 86, is this a rep or gen (he asks with trepidation)

Hey Dave once the dealer has sorted you out will you get back to us all with the results and who it was so we know.

Done P4GTR, couple of people might also want to edit there numbers above, no where can i get a case back with a higher number? @P4GTR they were but you know how some of these dealers lie! some people heard that there were only 10 numbers but we have disproved that.
