  1. Hi,

     

    yesterday it was like a christmas day to me, because I received my first new rep, a 42 Omega Seamaster CrPO, that I bought in TrustyTime/Andrew.

     

    The watch it's in fact a very god rep, do not know if it's super rep, but for me it is!! :-) Can't find major flaws, and the looking and feeling it's really like a gen one.  

     

    Now some photos (in  a gen case from my other Seamaster - just for a better looking :p)

     There is one thing that I need to resolve, the crystal sealant it's misaligned, and it's visible between 9h and 13h. For me I don't consider it a flaw.

    The crown and the HE valve are just like the gen one in the look, however I do not like the feeling when I operate with it. It's something wrong with it.

    The pearl it's a good pearl, considering the other versions of the rep PO's that I saw here, however when I touch it, the feeling it's very "rude":

    The bracelet it's perfect!! Great building quality, very solid and the satin finish it's really spot on:

    What I do not like is the movement. The balance it's very well made, but everything else it's very poor. I wish they have a closed version or the metal parts (chassis, etc) with a brushed finish just to give a better look:

    And now my gen Seamaster that I bought new many years ago. On this case, it's the midsize version. I just love it!!! :-)

    Really hope that Omega give a new look in the bracelet

    Side-by-side of course the size difference it's very visible:

    The lume, it's almost the same in the rep and the gen:

    And now in the wrist:

    I've got a 6,5 inches wrist (17.5cm), and I was concern about it. I do not like big watches, but this 42mm it's the perfect size!! :-)

    And now, just to close this post, my other Omega. It's a rep that I bought in second hand, but it have many problems... Just hate the yellow crystal, and....it's not working... :p :p It's a future project. ;-)

    However, it's a beautiful Omega

  2. Thank Supermax. ;) What do you mean with the "fixed keeper"? It's the fact of be with curved ends? If yes, I prefer curved ends. :)

     

    About the other 3 concerns that you have alert me, in that case I will not go for the Omega clasp, in that case I will go for Hirsch butterfly clasp, this one :)

  3. Hi,

     

    did not received my CrPO and I'm already planning mods. :D

     

    Can someone with a 42mm CrPO tell me (and confirm) the size of the bracelet?

     

    What do you think about this mod on a black/silver CrPO, this black bracelet:
