  1. Thanks for the hints but since I am from EU and don't have the skills I'll have to ask my watchmaker to make the mods. As a first step I already ordered the gen hands to check how fast and reliable the shipping to my country from UK. If everything will be ok dial-crystal-date wheel will follow. Originally I didn't plan to change crown but as I saw on the pics it is also a day and night difference.

    Anyway I am sure I will love it. To be honest I love my rep with its failures as well. Since I have it I can not convince myself to wear some of my other wathes.

  2. Hi All,

    I am new on this fantastic forum and need some help from you guys. I am quite satisfied with my rep PO but there are some annoying details on it like the hands which have some small blurs on the steel surface (from some angle). The lume part of the hands are also not perfect. The color of it is greenish not like the white color of the hour marks. The crystal has AR on both sides which is nice but in some light conditions it gives a kind of brownish shade to the dial.

    Due to these problems I had the idea to change some parts to gen parts but wasn't sure if it's possible. Also could not find any source to find genuine Omega parts.

    Than I found RWG and read about Franken wathes and Ofrei and Cousins. It was immediatelly obvious that I need to go Franken. I decided to change hands, dial, date wheel and crystal but I don't know exactly which type of rep PO do I have. Are the parts of it interchangeble with gen parts? The wach was preowned and was sold as an UPO. (I read in some comments that only the 4gen UPO can be Frankened.)

    Could you please tell me which type of rep PO do you see on the pics?
