  1. This is my first rep so am looking for some advice...

     

    I leaning towards acceptance, but have really no idea if the issue are acceptable.  Issues I see/Questions:

     

    1. a little white at the bottom of the date window?  Is this some dust or is the date wheel off?

     

    2.  Lume looks a 9 looks sloppy, and maybe at 11?

     

    3.  Is the pearl not centered above the 12?

     

    4.  Do I need to get some pics where the hour hand is not covering the Omega symbol?

     

    5.  What is that last picture where result is green?  I am hoping it is some type of pressure test for waterproof?

  2. Thanks for your replies...after doing some research I am leaning towards the Noob CRPO even with the obvious tell on the caseback.

     

    Its not like I am going to try an sell it as a gen, and if I am comfrtable enough to take off my watch and hand it to you, I will be comfortable enough to tell you it is a rep.

     

    Some sites say it is factory to 30m, but I will have it tested in case.  A place not to far from me is claiming $25 for the test..is that reasonable?  I am in between Sac and Tahoe, if anyone has a recommendation for service.

  3. Looking to buy my first rep, and want a 45 PO that is waterproof to at least 30m, and could use some advice. They would both end up being about the same cost after shipping...

     

    Option 1:  Ultimate PO Rep from trusty (not ceramic) and have him waterproof it for a fee.  Would be a little cheaper if I go with the asian movement, which I am leaning towards.

     

    or

     

    Option 2:  The Noob CRPO is factory waterproof, would buy from puretime most likely, unless someone has a better dealer they recommend.  Only drawback here is the open caseback is a big tell, which may bother me.

     

    or

     

    Am I crazy for thinking a rep can be waterproofed at all?
