  3. Abbreviation for the new ultimate 42mm PO

    in The Omega Area

    Posted

    So I guess that puts me in the chair.

    hmm well for me the v5 is the one narikaa has . And other dealers have simmilar versions.

    so I would call this one the UVPO42 (ultimate version planet ocean 42) because I think it more than matches the upo, having better logo, poss double AR .

    That settles it!

    UVPO42 it is!

    How does that feel? I know I feel great whenever I see the term 'POrikaa' ;)

    Additional photo's with a gen .

    The gen is always on the left. Or underneath.

    The biggest tell is the single AR , and the markers are whiter and brighter on the gen. Appart from this its very close

    Great shots and I know even Josh states the rep has single AR but from what I can judge from the pictures is that it definitely has double AR. Maybe not as stong as the gen but I know how single AR looks and that crystal is everything but coated from one side.

    1 sided AR on a UPO:

    Would love to see the movement shots. Did he send you some?

    The only thing that bugs the crap out of me on the 177 is the OP print on the movement! Why use a cheap movement with silly stamps. If you service this movement the ultrasonic cleaner will make sure your movement plates will come out nice and clean without any print. Than you're stuck with a $30 generic Asian 6497... :brow:

  12. Swiss 6497 seconds hand stops when stem winding stem is pushed in

    Here's a long shot.

    Maybe the movement and dial have a little slack which causes the second hand post to touch the dial (inside of the hand cut out hole) which causes the movement to stop. If you put pressure on the crown you are actually moving the movement whereas the dial stays in place. Ergo you push the second hand post against the dial.

    I have encountered this issue before.

    Keep us posted!

  23. PO 42 mm Ultimate - is it finally here ?

    in The Omega Area

    Posted

    I think it's a great rep! That's what it is.... a replica. Although not a 100% aesthetical accurate it makes a damn fine watch to wear and let's be honoust. Who will ever tell the difference?

    I love the double AR, serial#, case back, hands, pearl and clone movement option (after I've serviced it it will run like a champ)

    When these threads evolve the following thing always comes to mind..

    God grant me the serenity

    to accept the things I cannot change; = possible bracelet gap

    courage to change the things I can; = Dial swap

    and wisdom to know the difference. = I'm a veteran, believe me I know ;)
