Thanks for sharing. Its great to know there is a fellow black Bond SMP fan on this forum. Do you know how hard it is to swap out the second hand? I saw that 007 one before but the second hand made it look sort of cheesy. For the other three links below that one, does the second one seem to have slightly green markings while the first one (GMT) is more white? I think the gen. one has white markings, if I am not mistaken. I might go with the GMT one (thought I know the gen. doesn't exist in black) or just opt for a 2nd hand genuine.. It is a shame that the factories are not making a better rep of this classic.

Yeah I am lost as well on what to get.. What I really want is the SMP 300 with a black bezel/dial.. Don't feel comfortable settling for something just for the sake of getting a rep.. I am thinking about just waiting and hoping the factories release an ultimate version..

Sorry but I bear bad news. Contacted Mary but she said she doesn't have any more of the blue SMPs with the correct HE valve. Apparently she's got a different batch and they have the HE valve exactly at the 10 o'clock position.. Also, she ran out of the swiss 2824-2 movement ones.. bummer...

Thanks everyone for their feedback. They were really helpful, esp to a noobie like me. I guess I will opt for something else rather than the SMP then. I pmed Mary but she seems to have run out of the blue SMP 300s with the correct HE valve position. No word from WBK either. I don't mind paying a bit more for higher quality. Been considering the PO but its not my cup of tea. Does anyone have any suggestions for a good rep thats similar to the SMP?

No one?

Hi everyone, I am new to this forum and rep watches in general. I was interested in getting the Omega SMP with black dial/bezel and came across this one from watcheden: http://www.watcheden.biz/omega-seamaster-automatic-with-black-dial-and-bezel-i-17651-p-1.html Can someone with more experience please comment on how accurate this rep is? Also, if someone knows of a better quality model (better movement/more accurate), please let me know. Thanks in advance.

looks very nice

Found one on watcheden. Does anyone know of another site?

I emailed her as well but no reply. Anyone know where I can get the black dial rep of this? Of if anyone has one for sale, I would be very interested. Thanks!

Repeat. Sorry
