Jkay Posted July 13, 2011 Report Share Posted July 13, 2011 This looks like a winner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tribal Posted July 13, 2011 Report Share Posted July 13, 2011 Looks ok, but you must know that the Dial printing and also the Date font is silver... It must be all white writing like the real deal.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mickey Padge Posted July 13, 2011 Report Share Posted July 13, 2011 Looks ok, but you must know that the Dial printing and also the Date font is silver... It must be all white writing like the real deal.. This may be true, however none of the new 42mm PO's actually have the white writing, do they? This is still the latest and best 42mm Planet Ocean rep you can buy, yes? Looks like a very nice rep, I can see nothing wrong with the QC pics Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MagicDrumSticks Posted August 6, 2011 Report Share Posted August 6, 2011 Cobra, I have the new 42mm PO (same as yours) and mine has white writing; no happy feet either. Got it from Mary and highly recommend her. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryaku Posted August 7, 2011 Report Share Posted August 7, 2011 Cobra, I have the new 42mm PO (same as yours) and mine has white writing; no happy feet either. Got it from Mary and highly recommend her. Sorry to say but I don't think so. You'd be the first and only one to have a white writing on his 42mm 5th gen PO. Unless they printed a new dial it's not very likely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
giobo Posted August 8, 2011 Report Share Posted August 8, 2011 What abouth the one that TD's sell?? They are 5th gen and with white writing.. Or we mean other things... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cobra8272 Posted August 10, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 10, 2011 well i think they must have printed a new dial as the writing on mine is white, no question. I,ve had it under 2.5x mag and used colour sheet samples to match - definitely white. Maybe one of the dealers can confirm or deny ???

MagicDrumSticks Posted August 10, 2011 Report Share Posted August 10, 2011 Sorry to say but I don't think so. You'd be the first and only one to have a white writing on his 42mm 5th gen PO. Unless they printed a new dial it's not very likely. It looks pretty white to me. Maybe I should bleach the dial But seriously, look closely at the lettering in my pics, it's white lettering. Magicdrumsticks congrats on the watch . they are great and keep perfect time. Cobra Thanks Cobra you as well!! One thing I gotta ask you though. I noticed that the version of this watch with the white numbers seems to have whiter markers. The one we both have seems to have GREENISH markers, what do you think?

cobra8272 Posted August 17, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 17, 2011 MagicDrumSticks Yes they do look a little off white. Could be the AR coating? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
