the_rymeister Posted October 30, 2011 Report Posted October 30, 2011 (edited) Hi guys i received my first rep last week from joshua at perfect clones which i will put a feedback post up after this. The watch in question is an omega 300m chrono diver with asian 7750 full working chronograph movement which has got good power reserve.the exact details of the watch i don't honestly know as i am very new to watches. This is my first rep purchased and overall i am very impressed with the quality and feel of the watch. i was at a friends house last night and until i told them it was a rep they thought it was gen, even though 2 of them are gen planet ocean owners. the only obvious incorrect items with the rep i can see are, the bezel pearl which seems to be a standard item on all reps overall, and the sub dial hands are a tad too short, but this again is minor as its not that noticeable when the watch is on your wrist until you look closely. Both of these items you could easily sort out by purchasing gen sub dial hands and gen bezel. I'm sure i will mod these when my new tool kit arrives from watchbitz and i can find gen parts at good price. The strap seems a solid construction and the clasp seems to be pretty good even though i have rear topics about them failing quite quickly. the detailing on the clasp looks pretty good and the raised omega sea horse logo on case back looks good too. al in all in my eyes is a good rep for the small cost of $280. Below i've added some pics of the watch for you all to see..... which i may add taking photos of watches sounds easy but is actually very hard.this being the first watch i've ever taken shots of so excuse my pictures as they are not amazing. please feel free to comment or if there is anything i can answer ill do my best.cheers for looking Ryan Edited November 3, 2011 by The_Rymeister
ryaku Posted October 30, 2011 Report Posted October 30, 2011 Ry good catch, this is imho one of the best rep out of the box. Impressive accuracy to the gen and overall quality. Besides you pearl is very good: well centered and not too low. Wear it well!
the_rymeister Posted October 30, 2011 Author Report Posted October 30, 2011 Cheers buddy I absolutely love this rep
Fireman_Fred Posted October 30, 2011 Report Posted October 30, 2011 One of my favourite reps of all time - good choice ! Your photo taking skills are none too shabby either - well done !
chrgod Posted October 30, 2011 Report Posted October 30, 2011 Nice watch. I was just toying with my own old Seamaster Chrono replica today! I have had two of the replicas and one gen.. I sold the gen! How are the Omega lettering on the dial? Does the line go through the centre of the "Omega"? Seems like you have the "running chrono-hour counter issue".. Does the subdial at 6 runs even if the chrono is not running? This is a normal issue, due to a dirty brake lever in the movement. Nothing seriuos.

Did you sell one or did you have issues with them? The lettering has the line joins through middle of omega rather than the underline of the prev version.looking at the gen it looks spot on! Regarding the sundial at 6 I didn't even notice until you pointed it out...lol must have clicked over whilst I was taking pics earlier today. I may have to get it serviced at some point hopefully to prolong the life of the movement.
maxman Posted November 1, 2011 Report Posted November 1, 2011 That Is Indeed a very nice rep..one of the best. The pics are also very good. Wear It In the best of health. Mike
The_Sazerac Posted November 2, 2011 Report Posted November 2, 2011 That is a great looking watch. I love the blue wave dial and red Seamaster font... looks really good
the_rymeister Posted November 2, 2011 Author Report Posted November 2, 2011 That is strange I can't view them either!

vandal.tbh Posted January 3, 2012 Report Posted January 3, 2012 Not sure what you're talking about poor photos, I think they look great. And wow, what a nice looking rep. I wasn't even considering one of these until I read this post. I just ordered a 42mm Planet Ocean. Once it comes in I'm ordering two more watches...this may be one of them now! Thanks for the review..

mbjoer Posted January 17, 2012 Report Posted January 17, 2012 Have you had it pressure tested? If no (or if it failed) If you are having it serviced anyway, do make sure it is waterproofed as well. This one should at least be able to swim!

I never got it pressure tested buddy, but its sold now I no longer own it Ry
om3ga_guy Posted January 19, 2012 Report Posted January 19, 2012 Great looking rep. Looks pretty darn close to my gen...excuse the rios aviator, it was a test

jcagara08 Posted February 2, 2012 Report Posted February 2, 2012 wow very nice! wear in good health mate! I'm about to have mine next week! could not decide on black or blue.. Black is really near to the Gen? Blue is really biting me but can't afford the mods to make a super ultimate rep!
the_rymeister Posted February 2, 2012 Author Report Posted February 2, 2012 wow very nice! wear in good health mate! I'm about to have mine next week! could not decide on black or blue.. Black is really near to the Gen? Blue is really biting me but can't afford the mods to make a super ultimate rep! Which ever colour you went for buddy you'll love it, it was a favourite of mine for a long time but I had to sell it to fund my sub 16610.ive paid for that now so may look out for another
dusk Posted March 30, 2014 Report Posted March 30, 2014 That's a corker by the OP. So much so that I've ordered one this morning! Always adored these watches but never fancied wearing a months earnings on my wrist every day so I guess this is the best solution, shhhhh ;-) Sorry to resurrect an old thread and hi from the UK
johnnyboy_k Posted March 30, 2014 Report Posted March 30, 2014 very nice, considering one of these as a first purchase too!
