yah lume is slightly greenish which I have now found out is a flaw, apparently gen is whiter and glows blue

I tend to buy the SS version of reps, cause its always cheaper to get your own leather later than to get a bracelet. Never liked rubber till I got my Sinn, its superb and just looks awesome on runner.

Well I may aswell just post it, save me having to message everyone. The dealer I bought it off was Trevor guys.

Pm'd The guys who asked the Dealer I used. Cheers

thanks for the kind words guys

OMEGA SEAMASTER 300 2008 CHRONOGRAPH REVIEW Model: Stainless Steel Case, Black dial and bezel, stainless steel bracelet Movement: Asian 7750 fully functional chronograph Crystal: Sapphire Crystal Case Diameter" 41.5mm Just about everyone has the blue version of this watch, hugely popular due to it being the Bond color. I was about to pull the trigger on it myself, till the last minute I asked a few friends for opinions and they all liked the black more, so black it was. I wanted to put a review up of the more uncommon color so you guys can compare. Straight off the bat, this is an excellent rep, in the super rep category. Not many tells on this watch. The main ones are that the chrono hands are slightly a little short, and the pearl not being centered in the triangle, which is a problem on every Omega rep. There was an earlier version of this with the wrong Omega letereing, they were not connected together properly, and there was also a version with the "happy feet" Omega logo. Very please to say this dial is just about perfect, one of the best rep dials I have come across. Logos all correct, and a nice subtle wavy pattern. One of the tells with these models was the fact that the bracelet had screws instead of push pins like the Gen. My watch came with the correct push pin type bracelet. SO there is another improvement there. Bracelet isn't the smoothest I have had though, I have been spoiled with some great Breitling bracelets lately which makes this one slightly a bit under par. In terms of looks, its fine, just doesn't feel the best. A bracelet treatment is a must, and it will feel much better (helped mine quite a bit) Lets open her up. First thing we see is the anti magnetic cover, just like the gen. Nice Here is the caseback. Really good work here, beautiful job. If your a real paranoid of being called out, it has the omega anti counterfeit etching under the Omega logo. Seamonster looks pretty good also. Inside of the caseback has all the correct engravings too. I love little touches like this, that most likely no ones going to see, but you know its there and gives you that warm feeling inside.... or maybe its just me. And the movement, very nice A7750 inside with decorated parts. Omega branding on the rotor and plates have nice machined swirls too, my picture really doesn't do this justice I'm afraid. And some extra pictures. I know the blue face is associated with Mr Bond, but the the black is really smart in a suit. I think the blue is more sporty looking and the black more professional. Hope you enjoyed the review. Thanks

To me TAG is like the Apple mac of watches, they have a decent product, but market it like its the best thing ever made and are just come across as pretentious. Coupled with that, the people who have them (generalizing here) can also be quite pretentious. They tend to think TAG is the pinnacle of watches, usually cause the only other brands they know are seiko and citizen. That coupled with that their designs simply don't appeal to me much in general, I don't mind the aquaracer and like the carerra modes thou. Still I'd take a TAG any day over a Panarai, now there is a thing I will never understand...

so whats the lugwith on the TOF? Im thinking of getting myself a cheapie TOF, a very unique looking watch that will get the attentions Ps Frakpower what is your wrist size? Would you guys recomend Steel or PVD?

This is one of my fav watches. having one of these on is just awesome, they are such a solid watch in person. I take mine out swimming all the time, most comfortable strap too, would love to pick up a gen strap sometime.

Wow what a load of BS. That part that really made me laugh was that making the iphone in the US would only cost $40 more. Complete rubbish, its all about profit please dont fall for this Apple apologist article.

Breitling Bentley Flying B, king of rentangular watches for me

Saving my pennies for one of these badboys too, can't wait, but might be a while

Its an excellent rep, one of my favs. Very soild construction and the best ar on any of my watches

resurrecting old thread to clarify something, does this watch not have a screw down crown? even on the gen? oh, and what is panera's wrist size? contemplating getting a cheap asian version of this watch for a bit of a [censored] around.

hope soon also

I prefer the Sinn

rumor has it that they will release a regular SS version with the superlume also, I hope so

That combo looks absolutely badass, way way better than the rubber imo.

Sweet, would love a gen strap for my U2, one of my fav watches in my collection. I have a friend that wont wear anything but a bracelet and lent him my U2 and he is converted, he couldnt beleive how comfortable it was (and that was the rep band).

Breitling Seawolf Chrono and this beauty but the odds are its not gonna happen, they will bring out another 10 Pams that all look the same anyway... [censored] i hate pams..

Infact, those muslims made him angry knowing he would do this, they were behind the whole thing!

That right Dani, muslims would have taken this even further man!

Walnut and dont look back

Might be the same dial format but its the central minutes hand that the porsche dont have, if they can do that we could have a super rep

They just need to put it in a quality case and make a good looking dial and im sold
