This is definitely the new version. You can tell by the new big date and the movement finish is a lot better. Not sure about the white print on the dial though. Could be just the angle but it does seem a bit weak.

Does the gen look like that also? Meaning the strap goes under the caseback?

Man that is awesome work. It makes the watch look so much better. So where can we send the watches for modding?

I could use the info too. Please pm me also. Thanks!

Oh man. That is nasty

Had the same drama i thought but after a few days i woked it out . mine was a pt po . have fun just keep playiing with it you find that sweet spot to make it all work

Do you mind explaining how you found that spot or fixed it? Thanks

If you can wind the watch in the first position, and set the date in the second one, the keyless works is working fine.

I suspect your not pulling hard enough on the crown to get it to the time setting position.

Hmm..after pulling it with some strength and turning the crown, the hands moved a bit then it feels like something is clicking or slipping and then it stops moving. Does this mean i'm just not pulling hard enough? The amount of strength to pull the crown seems excessive to just change the time...very strange

Yea im sure I'm pulling it all the way. Sigh, i hate going through the trouble of sending it back

I just received the UPO yesterday but the problem I am having is that it wont change time. When I pull out the crown, the quick set date function works. The next click is suppose to be changing the time, but nothing happens. Would this be an easy fix that I can do, or should I just send it back to the dealer? Thanks

Out of those three dealers, Ive dealt with trustytime. He is a very good seller and fast shipping.

Nice guide. Thanks

haha maybe he stole from the movie set

Yup. That's the same chinese rep that you can get for around low USD 200's

The aging on the dials looks so believable. Nice job

Damn. Looks good. Thanks for the pics

Anything over $300 seems way too pricey for me

For VC overseas i perfer white over black. It stands out more

My vote goes for the UPO and a close second would be the 3717

1,200 for a 7,000+ watch sounds like a scam to me.

Looks good

Damn. Qc really slipped on that one.

Thanks for the replies guys. Looks like UPO will be the winner. As for the size, I won't worry too much since I like the size of the SFSO and the UPO is similiar. Now who to buy it from... :cc_confused:

I have to say that the SMP is one of the most comfortable watches. The UPO will take some time getting used to the size and weight of it. I would lean toward the SMP since I wear mine more than the UPO.

Not sure if size is that big of an issue since I have the SFSO and it should be somewhat similar.

Thanks for the replies. Looks like the UPO is winning so far

I know these watches were talked to death but just wanted to get people's opinion on which watch they perferred. Even better will be people that own both

UPO

VS

SMP

Hard choice but I can only get one of them for now. Pictures were taken from By-tor's guide. Thanks
