This is an America's Cup edition of the Seamaster Pro Chrono black dial. I'm not the biggest fan of gold on watches, but this is rose gold, and the perfect amount - it gives it a little bit of dress-up, without being too blingy. And yes, I could live with improper subdial spacing if necessary! The picture came from Eddie Lee's pix...I remember when he posted it in his photos, I e-mailed him and said please tell me this is a rep that you carry, but no, it is apparently his own gen that he had just gotten. I'm envious! P.S. To the admins, if posting this pic of someone else's is not proper etiquette, I apologize in advance, so either let me know or kindly remove it, as no offense was meant.

SUPER Thread! Keep it going! Based on it, I picked up the Omega SMP GMT from Andrew..... I'm in love, I'd have paid twice as much for this, it is becoming a daily.....Please excuse my picture taking skills, not up to the level of some of you guys who take better pix than the gen advertising! More ideas, keep 'em coming!!!

I agree with what has already been posted, which is that when dealing with gold plating on a replica: 1) that watch gets very limited wrist time, and 2) when finished wearing it, it gets wiped down with a microfibre cloth to get rid of any sweat or skin oils Truthfully, it was never much of a problem, really, because the only watch I have that has a lot of gold is a gold Daytona, black dial, on a brown leather band, and that watch wasn't the best rep there's ever been anyway (was from years ago, before these sites and before there were such fine repicas), so I don't wear it often. But now, now it might be a problem, because while I really don't go much for gold usually, I've think I've found an exception in that Chopard Mille Miglia GMT Chrono, gold with white dial, black subdials...I'm that close to pulling the trigger on that one over the stainless version, but concerned about the gold also....my thinking is that since the strap is rubber, I only have to be concerned with the back and the crown, so might as well, but still, I'm wary of the gold as well
