Hey guys, here's my PO chrono rep. It's a great-looking watch and feels nice on my wrist like the UPO. The only complaints I have are that the lume is basically non-existent, and the date wheel is too deep. I maybe inclined to re-lume or perhaps even install the gen dial, but have no idea if the $ is worth it. But, I'm greatly satisfied, and am enjoying this beauty!

my first rep 300m chrono diver semi review with pictures

That is a great looking watch. I love the blue wave dial and red Seamaster font... looks really good -
Well, since i love the UPO so much, I decided to order my 2nd rep, this time the PO chronograph from Josh. I'll post the QC pics when I get them. Everyone was right when they said this is an addicting hobby!
-
I've washed my hands and got the rep wet several times, and so far I haven't noticed any harm.... should be ok
-
Thanks for sharing, and enjoy your watches!
-
Hey Ninja, If you don't mind telling me, from whom did you order? (You can send a PM if you want)

This is an awesome looking watch... I've been enamored with the Omegas, but I may venture into Tags with this as my first entry -
Very nice! I love the accurate placement of the pearl
-
I was skeptical about the 45.5mm UPO when I ordered it, but it's a great size on my wrist. I'd imagine if you resize the band, it won't look out of place at all.
-
Thanks guys, I'm truly enjoying the watch... I had the 41mm 300m chronometer (2220.80) authentic Seamaster back in the day, and I remember thinking that was the perfect size watch. But, I like the size of the 45.5mm watch on my 6.8" wrist, and it looks great. I contemplated with purchasing the orange bezel, but I wanted something a little more classic for the meantime... maybe I'll venture in that territory soon though! Looking forward to seeing everyone's new purchases
-
Hey guys, Here is a quick wrist shot... My wrists aren't too big, but the 45.5mm looks like the right size and not too big at all. Overall I am very satisfied with the quality of this watch, and I never want to take it off! If you have any other questions, just let me know. Glad I joined the UPO rep family!
-
Hey y'all, Finally received the watch yesterday. It looks and feels great, exactly like the QC pics displayed. I need to get the band resized, so I won't take any pics until then. OK, more to come soon!
-
Update: It appears my watch has been stuck in China because of a 6 day national holiday. My watch arrived for despatch in Ghangzhou on 9/29, but I suppose it was not shipped before the holiday started. Hopefully I'll get it very soon!

Did I buy a really good PO fake? Hope it's Gen
The_Sazerac replied to HollyW00d's topic in The Omega Area
I'll match KB's offer and offer you $20 more! -
Yeah, this news about ReplicaMake is disconcerting for my recent UPO purchase. He's been a good communicator throughout my transaction, though I still don't know if my product has been shipped yet. Hmm...
-
Jkay, Thanks for those observations. I would not have realized those older characteristics existed since I am rather new to this hobby. If the product arrives and appears different than the QC pics, that should allow me to return it for the product I ordered, correct? (I suppose it ultimately depends on the seller...) Anyway, considering that these sellers all receive their products from the same warehouse/ manufacturer, would this mean that there is an abundance of supply of these older "UPO" models? Thanks!
-
I'll take one for $25, thanks
-
Update: After reviewing previous QC pics from ReplicaMake, I have decided to confirm this order. Interestingly, the 45mm version had a lower pearl placement on the triangle on the bezel, whereas a majority of the 42mm QC pics displayed a more centered pearl placement. I'll update this when I receive the product!
-
You're right... that pearl is definitely a tad low on the bezel, but I'm ok with the words and spacing on the face. So, I should likely request a different bezel perhaps?
-
Hey guys, Just got the QC pics and video from ReplicaMake... looks good to me right? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IFGmhmHukU8&feature=player_embedded

Hi everyone, New rep collector here, but have been "studying" these forums for over a month. I finally laid down some $ on my first rep purchase, and I will update this thread with QC pics and the shipped product as I receive them. Cheers!
-
Cobra, Which movt did you order? Thanks!
-
Thank you sir for that info... does it apply to the 42mm 5th gen as well? Or are those not as mass produced and accurate?
-
Great looking watch! Any problems with the crown so far? Also, which movt did you order? Thanks
