straight_six Posted June 6, 2010 Report Share Posted June 6, 2010 Anyone that received the plo tried to disassemble the button? Is it like shallow mounted only? Or does it have a deep hole drilled beneath it? Just thinking... Dean Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdkno Posted June 8, 2010 Report Share Posted June 8, 2010 Anyone know how the gen lock functions? IOW do you have to be pressing the button when you want to rotate the bezel or do you push the bottom down, it stays down, you rotate bezel to desired position and then somehow make the lock come back up?

Ztech Posted June 8, 2010 Report Share Posted June 8, 2010 Anyone know how the gen lock functions? IOW do you have to be pressing the button when you want to rotate the bezel or do you push the bottom down, it stays down, you rotate bezel to desired position and then somehow make the lock come back up? I can't say about the new PP, but the older model's bezel lock works when you press the button. Meaning the bezel will not turn unless you have the button pressed down.

mastrmindalliance Posted June 9, 2010 Report Share Posted June 9, 2010 Got my asian version today! Really cool and well built rep. Fantastic lume! Seriously the best lume I've gotten on a rep so far. Sadly, mine came with a little srcatch on the orange pusher... oh well. One thing of note is that it is nowhere near as comfortable to wear as the gen.

TmeShare Posted June 9, 2010 Report Share Posted June 9, 2010 (edited) "Sadly, mine came with a little srcatch on the orange pusher... oh well." Mine came with the rotor unattached. QC isn't the best. TimeShare Edited June 9, 2010 by TmeShare Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marinamm20 Posted June 10, 2010 Report Share Posted June 10, 2010 yiipiii - got my Ploprof today from Ms. King - it only took 4 days to arrive from china to Denmark as a fedex package - super fast shipping. love it, but i am not impressed with the bracelet - fells abit cheap. But that said, i am impressed with the quality of the watch for around 200$ the buy of the year (for me) and it sits comfortly on the wrist, dont look that big.

thogaa Posted June 11, 2010 Report Share Posted June 11, 2010 Hey. Got mine today. Swiss version from Trusty However the strap broke even before I got i resized It's hard and very brittle where the spring bars go through. Don't go sailing with yours before you are sure it's not comming apart!! And the movement: As usual the seals are as dry as a nun's gusset Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt_S Posted June 12, 2010 Report Share Posted June 12, 2010 Jeez!! I cannot believe what I'm seeing in those last pics! Got me worried about mine now, although everything seems fine so far... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thogaa Posted June 12, 2010 Report Share Posted June 12, 2010 Jeez!! I cannot believe what I'm seeing in those last pics! Got me worried about mine now, although everything seems fine so far... I had a look on the other side and it's just fine. Soft rubber like and all. So I guess it's just in the moulding of this one that something went horribly wrong. But anyway check it - and you could replace those flimsy spring bars while there. I'm kind of paranoid about bracelets/straps having lost a gen navitimer on pilot bracelet in a disco once...
