Interesting.. I did not have that problem with them when I purchased my rep from them.. He replied all my emails very quickly. I'm still surprised that I received the watch in the end coz I really had my doubts abt them. But that purchase, wld be my only purchase from them. Just did not feel very comfortable paying by money transfer via western union.. Keep us updated about your going ons with sinowatch..

Yeah, and thats where I bought the watch from. I went to the shop and purchased it..

The photos of the watch I took in this thread are mine, and yes, it is a gen.....

Re-issue??? Are those for real? You've got to be kidding right..

What is wrong with that rep? It looks fine to me.. Oh and is that dealer trustworthy? He even has the limited edition Quantum Of Solace Planet Ocean!!!

Yes. Michael Phelps is an Omega ambassador, so naturally, he wears an Omega.. Judging from the edges of the bezel and calendar distance on the dial, I think he is sporting the 45mm..

I don't think there were any close up shots of the watch in Quantum Of Solace.. And I liked it that way. It was a very subtle Omega product placement in the movie.. Everyone knows now that the current Bond wears an Omega Planet Ocean.. Thanks to the Omega poster ads pasted all around the world..

Ah yes, the rep 2531.80.. Its my favorite watch and my favorite rep... I hope to get a gen of the watch one day.... But since the 2531.80 is already out of production, the 2220.80 will do.. Here is mine...

No.. The black SMP wasn't released until only recently this year.. It was the blue co-axial SMP that was worn in Casino Royale..

Arrgh!! Very nice! Its the 42mm... Did you know Daniel Craig wore that in Quantum Of Solace!!! How I wish I have that watch..

If they do indeed deliver their watches as promised like the one I received, all they have to do is change their payment method.. Western Union money transfer has scam written all over it.. But alas, I've already persuaded Mickey to change his payment method a couple of times but he refused.. The reason why remains a mystery.. Oh well..

I don't get it, if its a gen, why isn't there a pearl? Is it suppose to have no pearl for that particular model? What model is that? Anyway, my SKX007K is still under warranty, will probably just risk it and go into the pool with it..

Ouch! So much for it being a diver watch.... Damn.. But is that a gen? Where is the pearl on the bezel insert?

Lol.. I didn't mean a watch dealer such as Omega etc.. Anyway, I emailed the dealer that I got my watch from, he said that it is water resistant but he stated that I should not swim with it.. I better not then.. I'd rather not take the risk and end up destroying a beautiful rep. Oh well, I guess I will just go swimming or do any water sports with my gen Seiko SKX007 then, which looks just as good..

That watch in the photo is a 41mm black dial Omega SMP.. Its not a PO.. Released recently to coincide with the new Bond movie. Here is a good rep I found of the watch... >>> http://www.rolex2u.com/omega-seamaster-aut...tch--17651.html
