b.diddy Posted November 29, 2010 Report Share Posted November 29, 2010 Hey guys, So I finally pulled the trigger and bought my first rep...the new Swiss UPO without happy feet from Joshua. He sent me some pics (see attached)... Since I'm still pretty noob, I'd like to ask you guys to take a look and let me know if everything looks in order. Thanks all!

Furu Posted November 29, 2010 Report Share Posted November 29, 2010 Big congratulations, nice first rep! My first rep came with happy feet The bracelet seems to have some sort of oxidation though, very apparent on the clasp. No idea if it's a problem.

wheaton26 Posted November 29, 2010 Report Share Posted November 29, 2010 The bracelet seems to have some sort of oxidation though, very apparent on the clasp. No idea if it's a problem. it may be plastic wrap, but that would be my only concern as well. looks sweet other than that! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Furu Posted November 29, 2010 Report Share Posted November 29, 2010 With some closer inspection it now looks to me that the brighter part of the clasp has been covered by plastics, while the uncovered part is a little bit dirty. So probably not a problem. But hey, send him an question. You want the best watch available don't you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mtv2009 Posted November 29, 2010 Report Share Posted November 29, 2010 Very nice,however.....pity they couldn`t stretch to adding the anti-counterfeit engraving to the caseback. That for me would complete an otherwise a great looking UPO ver.2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martyd3 Posted November 29, 2010 Report Share Posted November 29, 2010 That really looks nice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jkay Posted November 29, 2010 Report Share Posted November 29, 2010 The dial has too many shadows to tell: did they go back to the correct recessed date wheel window or are they still using the inferior dials (for about 1 year now)? I'd like to think that if they fixed the logo, they'd start using the stepped recess in the window, as they did in the beginning Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Fenix Posted November 30, 2010 Report Share Posted November 30, 2010 Looks good except for the oxidization. That a 42, or 45.5? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jkay Posted November 30, 2010 Report Share Posted November 30, 2010 Looks good except for the oxidization. That a 42, or 45.5? The Ultimate Planet Ocean (UPO) is a 45 .. there is no 42mm UPO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

plaifender Posted November 30, 2010 Report Share Posted November 30, 2010 looks nice. I spoke with Josh and he said that currently these dials are not for sale, but possibly in a few months the watchmakers will put them up for sale Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Speedman Posted November 30, 2010 Report Share Posted November 30, 2010 looks nice.

Craig S Posted December 1, 2010 Report Share Posted December 1, 2010 Gets me thinking, wheres this new 42 they been talking about for so long now? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mickey Padge Posted December 1, 2010 Report Share Posted December 1, 2010 Looks like a nice rep, still no double sided AR, which is a shame, it looks killer on the gen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plaifender Posted December 1, 2010 Report Share Posted December 1, 2010 Which dial are you talking about, a new dial? The dial without the happy feet. I asked him if he'd be willing to sell me just the dial or logo and he said probably not for a 2-3 months. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
