Thanks mate forgot to say, it looks beautiful, sligtly better than the old 4th gen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
signumboy Posted December 16, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 16, 2010 I have'nt had chance to size it yet. and a I might move it along. as I've a gen on the way, and then I will decide which one to keep. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
signumboy Posted December 16, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 16, 2010 The a/r looks good, alot better in the flesh . Though these pics were taken under spot lights.The bracelet is gappy around the end link. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryaku Posted December 16, 2010 Report Share Posted December 16, 2010 So i guess there's no improvement on this, that's a shame since a gen bracelet is a costy upgrade Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest jsuperman17 Posted December 16, 2010 Report Share Posted December 16, 2010 How's the he valve position? Is it close to the 4th gen? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
signumboy Posted December 16, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 16, 2010 Ok sized and wrist shots. I cant compare it to the 4th gen as I've never had one , but as the 4th gen is like rocking horse [censored] then I guess this is as good as it comes. For me I'm more than happy.

danza1812 Posted December 16, 2010 Report Share Posted December 16, 2010 (edited) Thanks for sharing. Looks really good. Almost identical to 4th gen. Is the clasp much thicker than the bracelet? My 4th gen had that problem. Some qc pics of this model look that way too. How Is the ar? Close to gen? Any chance of exact crystal diameter, I'm wondering if it will transplant onto my 4th gen.

luckyman Posted December 17, 2010 Report Share Posted December 17, 2010 (edited) This does look like an ultimate version of the 42mm. Definitely leaps and bounds ahead of the 4th gen. A little bit better than the UPO. Not perfect but real close Some things i noticed. -AR coating is definitely better than stock out of the box UPO -Pearl is better than the UPO -Improved caseback, not just with the anti-counterfeit logo but with the engraving of the hippocampus -Omega logo is better than UPO but not perfect -He valve is in correct position -The "952" on the bracelet endlink is upside down Also noticed that looks like there is a blemish on the dial on the rightside of the Omega logo. Now that's QC fail. Overall looks good BTW how's the lume on this version? Edited December 17, 2010 by luckyman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mojako Posted December 17, 2010 Report Share Posted December 17, 2010 yeah how's the lume? According to the Perfect Clone's site, it should have superlume? http://www.1-pc8838.com/0omse00057-planet-ocean-ssss-swiss2824-p-9547.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
signumboy Posted December 17, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 17, 2010 lume is typicle rep lume , no super lume here. also no blemish it must be a thumb print on the outer glass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mojako Posted December 17, 2010 Report Share Posted December 17, 2010 @Ryaku, Thanks. So it's interesting why it isn't superlumed when their site says it should be... ODD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
signumboy Posted December 17, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 17, 2010 Yes you are correct there is somthing near the omega logo, but you cant see it in the flesh . As for super lume all josh states its great lume stick markers. Not super lumed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rcook Posted December 17, 2010 Report Share Posted December 17, 2010 I'm looking at Joshua's site right now and the price seems to have dropped quite a bit, also it would seem that the movement is no longer listed as the 25j ETA or Asian clone, it's now listed as an Asian 4813 clone. The price is definitely right but is the movement significantly worse? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robertk Posted December 17, 2010 Report Share Posted December 17, 2010 I don't know that it is worse, just lower grade. On the non-chrono's it should be reliable. simple movement.....but reliable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mojako Posted December 17, 2010 Report Share Posted December 17, 2010 (edited) Oh, so when rep manufacturers say that great lume stick markers, it means regular rep lume. hahaha. Oh well, i was probably expecting more from them. Edited December 17, 2010 by mojako Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rcook Posted December 17, 2010 Report Share Posted December 17, 2010 I don't know that it is worse, just lower grade. On the non-chrono's it should be reliable. simple movement.....but reliable. Did some googling, the 4813 is a clone of the miyota (citizen) 8125 movement of which I have (and had) in at least 2 watches and it works fine so not a problem. I placed my order a little bit ago, can't wait. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, when I saw the price I didn't even hesitate. I just sold a moddem Seiko SKX at WUS so I had some funds burning a digital hole in the pocket Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
