bionic1ight Posted June 17, 2011 Report Share Posted June 17, 2011 Thank you all for the wealth of info everyone has provided here, over the past few months I have been deciding whether to get a gen PO or a rep. First off I'm not a watch guy (I know blasphemy )Never wore one but was interested in starting and fell in love with the PO. Now with that being said my predicament was should I spend the 4k for a watch that I'm not sure I would even wear. So then I thought I could get a rep PO and try it out if I eventually like it say over a few months or so then the investment into a gen would be a better next step. So I went with the UPO chrono and I love it. Hear is the just the one pic. I need to break out the camera to do some in the wild shots. I will update with some new pics then. Also I tried sizing this sucker today and it is some what difficult to get the right fit on the bracelet. I'm a 7" wrist and took out 3 full links but it still slides about on the arm a bit. Maybe taking the half link out would do but I feel it may be too tight then. I wish there were 2 half links in the bracelet to get a perfect fit. If any one has a spare half link for a 45.5 UPO bracelet laying around I'd be willing to take it off your hands (or even trade for a full link.) Well thanks again guys, this board seems like a great place and I look forward to spending more time hear as well as maybe getting a few more reps to test drive. Oh yeah btw no comments on the Chicago style (deep dish)date wheel. That sucker is staring me in the face and laughing every time I look at it.

gran Posted June 17, 2011 Report Share Posted June 17, 2011 This is mine..do you see any difference from yours? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bionic1ight Posted June 17, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 17, 2011 Forgive my ignorance Gran as I said I'm very new to this rep scene and have never worn watches at all in general. If I'm being honest I can't distinguish much from the two, if I had to guess I feel your dial maybe darker and your lume is definitely brighter aside from that my lack of attention to detail is showcased. When I was younger my friends in the pubs used to play those tell the difference between the 2 pics game. I could never get 1 right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gran Posted June 17, 2011 Report Share Posted June 17, 2011 Ther really is no big diference just spm DOMENICO lume and DOMENICO has also painted the metal around/below the the date window black...I actually wanted him to do a FAUX date modification for me but he was either unabele to do it or he was simply unable to understand my instructions (so my watch is largely like yours) My instructions...wonder if someone else could do this faux mod....???

bionic1ight Posted June 17, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 17, 2011 Well it sure looks nice from here actually really nice on you wrist as well. You had me and my brother going back and forth on the 2 pics today trying to distinguish the differences. Lol. Thanks Gran you had us kill some dead time at work today:) I see you have an amazing collection. I aspire to be like you one day when I grow up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
