lilypad Posted August 29, 2012 Report Posted August 29, 2012 Hi guys, Was thinking about buying one of these 2 reps: http://puretime.co/product/planet-ocean-45mm-ultimate-edition-ss-blackorange-dial-on-bracelet-a2836/ http://puretime.co/product/planet-ocean-45mm-ultimate-edition-ss-black-dial-orange-bezel-on-bracelet-a2836/ Along with the special offer: http://puretime.co/product/do-not-order-it-alone-seamaster-professional-diver-for-james-bond-2006-a2824-blue/ What do you guys think? Any experience? Pros/cons? Thanks in advance!
Jkay Posted August 29, 2012 Report Posted August 29, 2012 Altho the Ultimate PO is a good watch, what makes it great is the use of identical dimensions to the genuine watch. This allows you to replace any part you like with a genuine part supplied by Omega. This easy upgrade path is what made this replica one of the most famous, ever.
icoopernicus Posted August 30, 2012 Report Posted August 30, 2012 I went for this as well, waiting for the 45mm PO. This may be my first attempt at a Franken as it seems that the genuine parts are available from Omega without too much hassel. I don't know if I have the stomach for building a watch yet but it's only a matter of time before I take the plunge.
Jkay Posted August 30, 2012 Report Posted August 30, 2012 Omega is happy to make money in the secondary market and sells parts freely, unlike Rolex, who are afraid to.
indywatchguy Posted September 4, 2012 Report Posted September 4, 2012 Sounds like a fun project! I'm interested in the same deal from puretime.
