testhm Posted May 21, 2011 Report Posted May 21, 2011 Hello all, I would like to share the first pics of my new Planet Ocean Seamster with you which arrived yesterday. Think it is a very nice looking watch and I am verry happy with the quality. It is the 42mm version with double AR. I think there are some different versions, pleace compare the distance between Omega logo and Omega lettering, there are mostly very close to ech other. My version with a higher distance is mutch closer to gen, isnt't it? Discussions and comments are welcome! Sorry for the dust on the watch. Is it true that there is no way not to handwind this watch when setting time/date? If there is one, please give me a discription. Best wiches.
zorg2000k Posted May 21, 2011 Report Posted May 21, 2011 Nice, but I think the Omega logo's looks a bit higher than the gen. Very nice though. Heres a pic on my 5th Gen with gen dial / hands and bezel installed :
cougar1 Posted May 21, 2011 Report Posted May 21, 2011 That looks great, thanks for the pics, that's what I was on about in a thread below, I think these look much better than the first edition versions of the 5th gen where the logo is right on top of the lettering. My question is where did you get it?
cougar1 Posted May 21, 2011 Report Posted May 21, 2011 I would say not to worry about where the logo is, it looks better where it is positioned on these new ones out of the box, and so does the pearl, even if not entirely identical to gen. The real issue with the reps is the lume compared to gen. So if you want it to be more genlike then new dial/hands are a must. But in fairness this is probably the best we can get on logos and pearls from the factories.

cougar1 Posted May 22, 2011 Report Posted May 22, 2011 (edited) That looks great zorg, is that franken just with gen dial/hands and bezel?, you didn't change the crystal or anything else? Looks excellent! I can't see the He valve, but the crown and crystal looks gen aswell from the main pic above?? Edited May 22, 2011 by cougar1

testhm Posted May 29, 2011 Author Report Posted May 29, 2011 (edited) thanks for your pics zorg, your watch looks very nice! Here some further pics of my Omega. Edited May 29, 2011 by testhm
Vegasvic Posted May 30, 2011 Report Posted May 30, 2011 Very nice UPO. Are you planning on any mods for this one?
testhm Posted June 3, 2011 Author Report Posted June 3, 2011 At the moment I am not planning any mods on this watch. I think this one is quite nice as it is delivered. The 21J movement version isn't modable, I think, correct me if I am wrong. Greetz
testhm Posted July 17, 2011 Author Report Posted July 17, 2011 (edited) Thanks for comments so far. Just want to share some additional pics, one from the side and one from the caseback. Happy weekend! Edited July 17, 2011 by testhm
Stratocaster Posted July 22, 2011 Report Posted July 22, 2011 Very nice! I have a 2010 genuine PO, and holding it up to the screen, can see no difference. The engraving on the clasp looks more subtle on my gen, but that could just be the photography.
talaipwrei@ Posted July 22, 2011 Report Posted July 22, 2011 Does the dial markers and hands in yours, look a little green-yellow when exposed to much sunlight??
testhm Posted July 26, 2011 Author Report Posted July 26, 2011 Does the dial markers and hands in yours, look a little green-yellow when exposed to much sunlight?? talaipwrei, i checked this today. Yes it seams that there is a litte bit of yellow in the green markers color. I would discribe it as light-green.
