What Admin said, stay in Hong Kong Kowloon Peninsula Hotel. The 4 seasons hotel is also very nice. A few places to visit: 1. The peak. Great night scene. visit madame-tussauds wax to take pictures with Bruce Lee and Jackie Chan. 2. The huge buddha or Wong Tai Sin Temple. 3. Take the ferry across the harbor or to outside islands for seafoods. 4. Shopping, shopping shopping. MongKok! 5. FOOD... 6. Maybe the disney if you have time. 7. You can also visit Macau or Shenzhen. It's about 2 hours away from downtown HK.

I want to get the new movement in a 183H.

http://www.aspire-eshop.com/product_info.p...roducts_id=1226 Is that the new H series movement?

Install the cannon pinion and hour wheel. The front will look 99% the same.

I put in an OEM #127 crystal. Now the cyclop looks much better. The old one was misaligned when I received it.

I got it from a mystery dealer...

It's just $5 and he bothers to file paypal complaint. I really don't understand what he was thinking.

$5 is a lot to this guy, He can pay like 3 or 4 auctions. lol http://feedback.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dl...p;userid=sam268 maybe the same guy? http://applemates.com/american-personals/t...an/?nick=Sam268

added to blacklist.

It's genuine. I have a few omega boxes. I got them for $30-$50 shipped on ebay.

ebay, Timezone

no problem in US.

OP changed id and country. Interesting.

The crystal is not sapphire though. The case is the same as other fiddy that I have.

jealous, lol.

I think the Asian version looks better. Also, Not to forget you are selling the movement for $500+.

Most of the members here have 5, 10, 20 or even 30+ watches. After buying so many reps, we started to know how to play this game. The first gen is the sucker's version. It sucks your money for a not-so-accurate watch and after a few months, you are stuck with a watch that you can't even resell at half price. Personally, I don't need perfection, but knowing the fact that the watch will depreciate so much after a few months, I would rather wait for a 2nd gen or a 3rd gen. Talking about conspiracy, I think the makers are putting some of the flaws there intentionally. So they can make a few versions to maximize profit. They always make one step forward, but two steps backward in new generation. It gives me an impression that the makers can do it better, but they don't want to do it. The makers better think twice when they decide to make a new version. I would prefer quality over quantity. We already have too many choices of good watches. These makers can definitely make something good. They decided to make a so-so watch and it didn't sell well. Who should be blamed for the poor sale? Come on, they don't expect us to buy from Gen 1 to Gen 7. How many versions of fiddy can we afford? Customers are asking for more and it happens in every business. Dealers as middlemen should let the makers know what we are looking for. It's just silly if the makers still believe we are going to take whatever they offer. It's a rep, we all know about it. But if it's not so good, we ll buy another rep. well, we have too many choices. Btw, I always have respect with the dealers, especially those who take care of the customers, like Andrew. Having bought 10 watches from Andrew, I can say that the service is as good as Amazon. I hope you can do well in your business.

Better buy it now. Hong Kong government is going to introduce sales tax soon.

Are you dealing with Maria directly or another reseller? Do you have Maria's skype id? $500 is a little too high. I paid $380 last week and I got service 1,2,7,8,9 though. Problem is the dealer wants to keep a low profile and doesn't want to deal with unknown members. So don't ask me who he is.

His dog.

yes. I ve been using my PO with gen hands for months. No problem.

I am going to install a #127 crystal and OEM crown guard/tube. Some snapshots:

I ve received too many PMs regarding PO modding. So, here you go... 1. Hour/Minute/Second Hands The rep hands are too short and small. It's highly recommended to upgrade the hands. The lume of the genuine hands are much better. Hands can be found on Ofrei http://www.ofrei.com/page1122.html My PO with genuine hands 2. Spring bar The rep springbar is not tight enough. If you have a genuine omega, you can notice that the bracelet locks into the case tightly. A pair of OEM spring bar is ~$8 + shipping This is the pair I got from Ofrei: http://www.ofrei.com/page957.html OME-SPRING-BAR-04 3. Crown and case tube The crown of the 4th gen PO is a big give away. You can fit in an OEM crown with an OEM case tube. Crown guard: Omega Crown 42184 Model 2209.50.00 Part number: 069 ST 42184 http://www.ofrei.com/page_147.html Case Tube: Omega Case Tube Model 2209.50.00 Part number: 090 ST 1232 http://www.ofrei.com/page1115.html The case tube is a little bigger. So you ll need to drill the hole of the case a little bigger. Also, you may need an ETA-2824 stem. You can find it on ebay. This guy is selling it for $2.80 on ebay. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...em=170002348363 The stem is a little longer, so you ll need to cut it shorter. I don't have a dremel, so I wasn't able to fit the tube in the case. 4. Bezel The pearl is quite ugly on the rep. You can find it at Ofrei: http://www.ofrei.com/page663.html It's too expensive imo. Not worth it. 5. OEM Dial http://www.ofrei.com/page1123.html again, too expensive. Not worth it. Not sure if it fits. The worst case is to cut the legs and use dial dot stickers. 6. Bracelet Clasp Omega Stainless Steel Planet Ocean Bracelet Clasp 1580952 Part number: OME-117ST1580952 http://www.ofrei.com/page666.html One member installed the OEM clasp on the rep bracelet. It looks pretty nice. 7. Leather/Rubber Strap The 4th Gen 42.5MM PO uses 20mm straps. For the leather strap, you can check here: http://www.ofrei.com/page760.html Buckle and Deployment: http://www.ofrei.com/page572.html For rubber strap, I ve tried this one: http://www.ofrei.com/page750.html Omega Black Rubber Strap 20 mm X-Long
