I think I just dont have enough love for the PO atm, the replica is almost PERFECT! all i have heard is great reviews of it, I can't imagine anyone not wanting to buy that thing!
With me, I think once I complete the GMT and Speedmaster project, I may research and get the PO. I'm still thinking of getting a Railmaster XXL, you know the 49mm one. Man thats like wearing a CD on your wrist.......
Ok lets see what we have here:
1 x Omega 1128 GMT movement
1 x Omega hour/min/sec (notice how its black in some areas)
I actually instead of buying Genuine Omega GMT hands for the white version, I just got Genuine Omega Sword hands and painted them black, hahahha..
Waiting for 2 things:
1. GMT wheel
2. The Case and dial.
Coming next week hopefully so i can get this baby on the road.
Ok guys....
Look at what i have here:
"ETA" 2892 with Genuine Omega Black datewheel.
Perfect for the Omega P.O projects and the Omega 2254.500 (Member Jsph, this may be of interest to you)
hahaha....maybe not everyone has graduated from harvard university with a "Basic behaviour of shiny metals" degree.
I think some people need to attend "metals 101"
nice pictures by the way, another Omega PO!
Makes me want one.....I don't think i'll cave in for this though...I already have too many Omegas...
@ Jsph
you may want to check repairs and upgrades.....
actually Jsph, The 2254.50 gave me alot of problems. The version that i got was the Paul's version, which was the same that other dealers were providing.
The bezel also didnt fit well, so i had to milled down the bezel insert for it to sit flush. The Genuine crystal will not fit into the case, so i had to secure it with other methods, i think its not much better in terms of taking in OEM parts.
Sorry Space, my bad there,
Triplehd actually Pm'ed me telling me that the bezel didnt fit well and i got that mixed up within this thread.
My apologies....
yes its been done, quite a few members have done it.
Ranging from putting in OEM 007 dial, to Standard SMP dial to GMT dial.
dial feet are a little shorter on the OEM from what i've heard, some members had to use Double sided tape to make sure the dial stays on, but generally it should be fine.
Hi guys...hoping some of you guys can help me here.
I'm after the Crown for the Omega Speedmaster automatic reduced.
Caseback says : ST 172 0032.
Model ref is: 3510.50.
I've had a look on OFREI, i think it may be this one
Ofrei Link
scroll towards the end, and you'll find Genuine Omega Crown Stainless Steel Bestfit 8100/1664
can someone confirm or have any advice?
thanks in advance!
well mine aren't that spectcular compared some of yours but here we go:
Project one:
Omega Speedmaster reduced:
- have movement
- have case and dial
- ordering hands
Project two:
Omega GMT white dial
- have movement
- awaiting case and other parts.
that is all for now i guess
for crying out loud guys...its just a internet forum....as much as i like it, it doesnt fulfill anything if my postcount was 2 million....
i'm sure we all know who are the old schoolers are and who has knowledge in replica watches with memory from RWG.
so it shouldn't really matter....
if i spend alot of money on a genuine rolex, and i was told by my authorised dealer that it wasnt genuine, I WOULD GO TO THE NEAREST WATCHMAKER TO EXAMINE THE MOVEMENT.
HOW HAS THIS NOT BECOME A FIRST PRIORITY TO BRIANK996?
instead he's pondering about it and asking questions on the internet...hoping to find accurate answers from pictures given to us.....
unbelievable....
