Correct HE valve placement on new Seamaster Pro?


Recommended Posts

Certainly looks that way, or is it an optical illusion what with the bezel set a couple of clicks to the left?

The CGs look better on this one too though and the bezel is (almost) aligned correctly.

Is the old factory back open??

It may be the correct location, but it all He valves on all SMP's are off including WBK's.

The correct He valve is slanted and is tilted upwards. It should line up, when projecting a line to the centre of the dial, torwards the OMEGA sign.

The ultimate PO or the 4th/5th gen PO however, is correct.

WBK's is nowhere close to where the He valve should be.

Not all SMP are "off".

The SMP shown by watch international seems very good. The He valve seems slightly off but closest gen from what's available now. Those crownguards seem well done too. It has my vote for "best SMP available now." I wish it came with the black dial or red lettering :(

Have a look:

this one needs a better front on view. The location of the He valve is quite deceiving as the rotating bezel has not been lined up at 12:00. but from what I can see, it does look promising.

@bosk:

the pic you show, are they reps? because if they are all have pretty good He valves, except for the far right and the bottom right watch.

2 are gen
