Looks great! What dealer did you use?

Gtanak, Thanks for the write up. How is the lume on the unmodded V2?

Lume Question: Fantastic info on this watch in this thread. Can anyone illuminate on their experiences with the lume on this piece?

2.5 years and still going strong - looks and runs like new! I got the Orange UPO from Andrew! The first one had the crown stripping problem but that was resolved and has been smooth sailing since.

Lani, I'll have to look for that post of yours - do you know what par is for the co-axial in terms of longevity? Omega used to claim all kinds of things - 10 years, then I used to hear 6-8 years between intervals, but nobody knew because at least the Omega iterations hadn't been proven yet. Now, it seems they've been around enough to get some decent numbers. This place has inspired enough mods and tinkering, who know what I'll do next with my PO ;-)

That is actually a great idea! :-)

I have a UPO purchased in 2007 that has been a reliable and accurate time keeper and still is today. I also have a gen 42mm PO that I purchased a year earlier. The GEN has just stopped working. It no longer winds. I just got a response back from Omega and as it's just out of warranty, it'll cost me $460 total to get it back to my door, and I already spent $30 to get it there. The $500 cost to service a gen that failed long before it should have just makes these amazing reps look that much better.

Great news about the pearl. Can you tell about the triangle top - curved or straight?

Ronin, That is the coolest bond watch I've seen! I wish they were selling that exact one. Well done.

Is it just me, or is the triangle in the new insert wrong and a pretty big tell. I believe the top of the triangle angles downward toward the tip in this version while the gen does not do this. The other DSSD reps don't, that's for sure. Am I wrong?

Lani, thanks for the great find and tips. I'd like to do this with my V3 but there's a slight problem. To keep from losing my pearl and in order to position it in place, I super-glued it onto the bezel and there's quite a lot of super glue bonded beneath the pearl. The bezel turns fine but I'm wondering if you have any ideas for me in regards to removing my now bonded insert? Thanks! P

Thanks for the reply, I appreciate it and thanks for the prohunter link. So I guess it hasn't gotten any chatter in part because it's a fantasy model?

http://puretimewatch.com/index.php?productID=1527 This one's been out there for a while but I haven't seen any reviews or heard anyone talk about it. It's the design of the new blue ceramic sub (and perhaps the black ss due this year), PVD'd, glide-lock clasp, and factory waterproofed. Any thoughts on this piece?

Rosnik, Sorry, I sent it back without taking pictures and did not note the stack position.

The stack is the independently adjustable WHS.
