mene_menelaou Posted July 12, 2009 Report Share Posted July 12, 2009 Hi! This is the first time I am posting here. My question is: Is there a newest generation of UPO with double AR coating? I found one on CQOUT from the seller exclusivediscountUK and in the description states that is has double AR coated crystal and swiss ETA 2824 movement.

Steve52 Posted July 12, 2009 Report Share Posted July 12, 2009 I haven't seen any double AR UPOs on any of the cartel sites. I don't think they have double AR. the chrono version does though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
b16a2 Posted July 12, 2009 Report Share Posted July 12, 2009 I think the new Chrono's and possibly the newer versions of the Quantum of Solace UPO's had a double AR, but ti was very very blue, and looked more like a blue film than a true AR coating. It probably does have AR qualities, but not to the standard of the HBB's and the BCE etc... As for the standard UPO's they all have the basic inner AR coating.

mene_menelaou Posted July 13, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 13, 2009 Thank you guys for all the replies. While I was searching this forum and RWI I found other two sellers, Precious Time Swiss and Daytona4me. Precious Time Swiss On their description have the UPO with Swiss movement and double AR sapphire crystal. Daytona4me writes only that is sapphire with AR and ETA clone movement, so I shoot him an email and asked him. On his reply told me that there is only one version of UPO in production now, which is with clone ETA movement and sapphire with single AR coating. Anyway, I think that the price of Daytona4me at $180 + 25 shipping is the best I can find. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
By-Tor Posted July 13, 2009 Report Share Posted July 13, 2009 Dealers say a lot of things. Sometimes "they don't know", sometimes these claims are called Little White Lies. Don't worry, it's normal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HauteHippie Posted July 13, 2009 Report Share Posted July 13, 2009 Some UPOs definitely have a coating on both sides. The outer surface coating should not be called "anti reflective" though. What its purpose is, other than to cause me problems , I have no clue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigpops Posted July 13, 2009 Report Share Posted July 13, 2009 I'm pretty sure that dealer (Exclusive discount UK) is Homer. He uses the same name on Ebay for more legitimate items. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

casanile Posted July 15, 2009 Report Share Posted July 15, 2009 Trustful seller with "little white lies" (as BT said) I bought a Bond SMP from him 2 years ago, maybe two days before knowing RWG. So, He is not a scammer but do some little lies. He made me believe that The pearl was well centered (with pics) on a SMP... That was a lie, only one but....
