Well its here!!...........a supposed UPO bezel?...sample arrived today and first glance seems very good,

if someone could take a look and tell me if these are better than standard fare i will order some in quantity!.....

i was sent 45mm black but NO LUME PEARL FITTED!...so i just removed one from the cheaper version for now to see how it

compares...

I have contacted my source and asked for ones complete with pearls..

as a comparison heres a pic of the first bezels i was sent next to the latest vesion,

the latest version seems more 'coated' as in it feels finished,the numbers are thickerand better defined aswell..

So any ideas if these are more suitable???...as soon as i get confirmation on the pearls i will post a pic..

It's ALL about the pearl. Without a pearl it's just as worthless as the rep version.

Have to agree with Rolexman on this one.

Are you going to be doing the 42mm bezels as well?

Yes i will be ordering 42mm orange..

i will post some pics of pearl later...

Ive had a reply stating the pearls on these are independant of the bezel,and only come with case...but he can supply the pearls..

does this seem strange.....

No that's right... The Pearl on the UPO is kinda glued to the case... I prefer these versions with the pearl included, it's a pain adjusting the old pearl to a new bezel sans pearl.

Count me in for a black one... Have you got the Black rubber straps yet?

Ask them to take a look at the gen and go from there.

Like rolexman said - its all about the pearl.
