gran Posted May 30, 2010 Report Posted May 30, 2010 Wow..how many versions will ther be of this watch simultaneously....
OSRep Posted May 30, 2010 Report Posted May 30, 2010 yep. Eta version: http://www.1-pc8838.com/00omse00102-ploprof-1200m-ssru-black-swiss-28342-p-8833.html For only 268... not bad. Going to order now. At least this one says "SEAMASTER" on the case back Let us know what you think when you get it....
prdubis Posted May 30, 2010 Report Posted May 30, 2010 yep. Eta version: http://www.1-pc8838.com/00omse00102-ploprof-1200m-ssru-black-swiss-28342-p-8833.html For only 268... not bad. Going to order now. it's the same version with Swiss eta instead of Asian. The "ultimate" version is supposed to be released in one month.
chad Posted May 30, 2010 Report Posted May 30, 2010 Looking forward to the black bezel white letter version. (not the bone grey bezel with beige lettering, on josh and andrews site)
chronos666 Posted May 30, 2010 Report Posted May 30, 2010 It's odd that the 21 jewel hontwatch version has the logo without the happy feet and the Swiss version logo sucks. It also has the two color lume but with a my little pony drawing on caseback. Isn't the dual color lume more gen like?
wheaton26 Posted May 30, 2010 Report Posted May 30, 2010 only a $40 difference for swiss over asian movement? i assume this is a clone. experts please weigh in if you can tell from the pics (see links below) ... asian 2824-2 swiss 2834-2 i was lucky enough to catch my dealer before my asian version was shipped. i paid for the upgrade to swiss and it will be shipped in the next couple of days. king verified that everything is the same except for the movement in these two versions. i didn't ask about an ultimate version.
Nanuq Posted May 30, 2010 Report Posted May 30, 2010 So now we're down to two salient questions: 1) Does the bezel lock work? 2) Where's the MESH?
gran Posted May 30, 2010 Report Posted May 30, 2010 So now we're down to two salient questions: 1) Does the bezel lock work? 2) Where's the MESH? s and we should add this for the Frankens 3) Is this the ultimate version? 4) Will it acept genuine parts?
prdubis Posted May 30, 2010 Report Posted May 30, 2010 s and we should add this for the Frankens 3) Is this the ultimate version? 4) Will it acept genuine parts? According to Mrs King, the ultimate version is supposed to be released in a month or so... Anyone can confirm from another source?
mastrmindalliance Posted May 31, 2010 Report Posted May 31, 2010 According to Mrs King, the ultimate version is supposed to be released in a month or so... Anyone can confirm from another source? Well then, Im glad i fell asleep before ordering the 'swiss' version last night. Will wait for Ult.
thogaa Posted May 31, 2010 Report Posted May 31, 2010 Ordered a Swiss version today. God knows when the ult will be on sale...
MilSub Posted May 31, 2010 Report Posted May 31, 2010 I just got my PloProf from Trusty! See more pics and info here: http://www.rwgforum.com/topic/117671-pics-and-thoughts-on-the-new-ploprof/
MADRED7 Posted May 31, 2010 Report Posted May 31, 2010 Wow...thanks for sharing: How long did the shipping take? (whats your country?) Theo
MilSub Posted May 31, 2010 Report Posted May 31, 2010 Wow...thanks for sharing: How long did the shipping take? (whats your country?) Theo I ordered it on the 25:th so it took a week to get to Sweden.
Matt_S Posted May 31, 2010 Report Posted May 31, 2010 I ordered it on the 25:th so it took a week to get to Sweden. WOW!! Looks ace!! More to the point though, is the bezel lock functional?
MADRED7 Posted May 31, 2010 Report Posted May 31, 2010 WOW!! Looks ace!! More to the point though, is the bezel lock functional? Blessed are those who can read.....its non functional. Theo P.S.: I will test a milanese bracelet to this baby once it hits my doorsteps.
mastrmindalliance Posted June 4, 2010 Report Posted June 4, 2010 Just an update from my preferred dealer: Apparently the "ult" won't be available for some months... With that in mind I've ordered the asian and will either pass it on to my bro when the Ult arrives or not if I decide the Plop (hehe) is not for me.
MADRED7 Posted June 4, 2010 Report Posted June 4, 2010 Just an update from my preferred dealer: Apparently the "ult" won't be available for some months... That was exactly my info....some months....so I already ordered the current version....and will get it delivered mid next week if customs office is good to me! Theo
Watchmeister Posted June 4, 2010 Report Posted June 4, 2010 That was exactly my info....some months....so I already ordered the current version....and will get it delivered mid next week if customs office is good to me! Theo The information is consistent. There will be an ultimate version from a different factory but it is months away. Everyone has to decide for themselves whether they can wait that long. I don't know if I can.
marinamm20 Posted June 4, 2010 Report Posted June 4, 2010 i cant wait - so i just placed an order from Ms King - i cant wait for a ult. version with new flaws.
Nanuq Posted June 4, 2010 Report Posted June 4, 2010 I'm waiting for one of the dealers to read this thread and realize they could sell one on MESH and make a fortune. *ahem* It would save me a couple hundred bucks tracking down a nice thick 24mm mesh for that bad boy. *cough*
gran Posted June 4, 2010 Report Posted June 4, 2010 I'm waiting for one of the dealers to read this thread and realize they could sell one on MESH and make a fortune. *ahem* It would save me a couple hundred bucks tracking down a nice thick 24mm mesh for that bad boy. *cough* +1 and for large wristsizes too
Nanuq Posted June 4, 2010 Report Posted June 4, 2010 and for large wristsizes too +1 We Norsks are known for large manly wrists.
MADRED7 Posted June 5, 2010 Report Posted June 5, 2010 As soimone mentioned before there are many mesh bracelets on the Bay from similar quality.....they are not like the PloProf bracelet but a mesh anyway. I read that O Frei isd selling gen Omega mesh
