msp Posted May 21, 2012 Report Share Posted May 21, 2012 I once saw LHOOQ's Seamaster 300 in a wristie thread and I thought damn I gotta have this watch.. I've always been quite much of a franken guy. So far I got 2 watches that are stock reps.. The rest are frankens....But this was definitely the next level. After a few pm's I realized gen was the only way to go. So what shall I do? Buy a gen @ chrono24 ? ............. It's almost a year ago now since I recieved it. This has been such a nightmare of a project but I just wanted to say thank you once again to LHOOQ who helped me at the source of the parts. After I had all the gen parts together I needed someone who's reliable and does great work.. Preferably within the EU. Wiz modded a couple of my watches already and it's always been a pleasure when they arrived. I never had any issues or anything. So a big thank you to you, Wiz ! Thanks for having a look ! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noel Fleischer Posted May 27, 2012 Report Share Posted May 27, 2012 I love that watch, not cheap but 100% gen. Is it possible to source that again? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greddyl30pjg Posted May 27, 2012 Report Share Posted May 27, 2012 That is a stunner, if only they made a decent rep for us poor folks! Congrats.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woof* Posted May 28, 2012 Report Share Posted May 28, 2012 Mine say's hi LHOOQ helped me get mine together also. It would have never happened without him! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stefanp67 Posted May 30, 2012 Report Share Posted May 30, 2012 (edited) LHOOQ's exclusive on his franken SM300 back in 2010 got me into the vintage SM300 and i also got a lot of help from him when putting it together. Still ticking 2 years later and keeping (almost) perfect time, here's my SM300: Edit1: Ahhh yes i relumed the hands to match the lume on the dial. Edit2: Crystal has also been polished once with polywatch (i wear it at a lot). Edited May 30, 2012 by Stefanp67 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackdice Posted May 31, 2012 Report Share Posted May 31, 2012 I need this, but Yuki doesn't have the Seamaster 300 case anymore, did all of you use a gen case set? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
klocklind1 Posted May 31, 2012 Report Share Posted May 31, 2012 That IS THE nicest omega ever made I bought the one without the date a month ago from watchco with that and the beautiful mesh bracelet and that is my favorite at the moment Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
msp Posted June 2, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 2, 2012 I need this, but Yuki doesn't have the Seamaster 300 case anymore, did all of you use a gen case set? I used one.. Cousins price was somewhere at 670GBP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lhooq Posted June 2, 2012 Report Share Posted June 2, 2012 I used one.. Cousins price was somewhere at 670GBP When I bought my case in late 2010, it was just under GBP 500. Now, I can't find the case on Cousins, but it's ~$1300 on Ofrei. Thanks a lot, Omega. With Yuki no longer carrying the Vietnam case, I can only think of Phong as a possible, lower cost option. Assuming they've got any in stock. Stefan: Would you have your SM300 thread from RG saved somewhere? I was referring some people to it, forgetting that RG was down!

Sorry but no, i thought RG would work forever, if they do come online again i will save it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
