By-Tor Posted May 12, 2006 Report Posted May 12, 2006 @vric: Thanks for reposting this. I remember this post from the old RWG. Very nice (both watch and the pictures). The "old stock" Blue SMP is such an awesome rep, I'll never part with mine.
BilboBaggins Posted May 12, 2006 Report Posted May 12, 2006 The "old stock" Blue SMP is such an awesome rep, I'll never part with mine. It pains me to hear you say that...always wanted to get hold of the old stock...love this watch so much Jon
Perfectionist Posted July 23, 2006 Report Posted July 23, 2006 Who is The Zigmeister and how do you get your watch serviced by him and how much does it cost ??
vric Posted July 24, 2006 Author Report Posted July 24, 2006 The Zigmeister is a member here. He won't work on watches before September, so look back later. he is THE guy in Canada to work on watches

The "old stock" Blue SMP is such an awesome rep, I'll never part with mine. what do you mean by old stock? would this be considered old stock http://www.jpc8118.com/omse10002-seamaster...8242-p-892.html? Thanks
PAMman Posted April 24, 2009 Report Posted April 24, 2009 what do you mean by old stock? would this be considered old stock http://www.jpc8118.com/omse10002-seamaster...8242-p-892.html? Thanks Those pics on the PC website look like the older version but I doubt if that's what you will get. The arrows on the bracelet suggest pins not screws, the bezel pearl looks like the older (better) version, the CGs look like the older version (not accurate) etc. I have one of these 'old stock' SMPs and, while not too accurate, it is an extremely well built piece that simply feels like a gen, bracelet included. I have a 'Bond' chrono and I have gathered up the bits to complete a gen-movement-powered franken to compliment my gen 2254.50 so maybe I will sell the old stock Bond SMP some day.

Fireman_Fred Posted April 24, 2009 Report Posted April 24, 2009 Oh - looks like an "autocorrect" function has kicked in - sorry for any confusion...

Shundi Posted April 25, 2009 Report Posted April 25, 2009 Oh man, old school SMP is ridiculous..congrats!
