Obiwan76 Posted March 18, 2013 Report Posted March 18, 2013 After a couple of weeks of debate I ordered another Omega Rep. This time I ordered a Planet Ocean Ceramic 45.5mm from Trusty Time. I could not be happier. I know that some find issues with the AR (not as bad as I figured)and the "Liquidmetal" engraving. I can personally overlook it. Andrews QC photos were spot on and delivery time was super fast to the US. If anyone is on the fence about this rep., do yourself a favor and order it. We now have 5 Omegas in our house (4 reps and one original). The PO is quickly becoming my favorite.
NotColorblind Posted March 18, 2013 Report Posted March 18, 2013 Great Pictures and thanks for posting such a beauty.
SSTEEL Posted March 18, 2013 Report Posted March 18, 2013 This is on my list but in blue. Lovely rep.
Obiwan76 Posted March 18, 2013 Author Report Posted March 18, 2013 This watch really surprised me. You will love it SSTEEL. I am now considering ordering a "Titanium" version. 1
indywatchguy Posted March 19, 2013 Report Posted March 19, 2013 I agree Obiwan I also own a CrPO 45mm from TT one of my favorite reps!
Obiwan76 Posted March 20, 2013 Author Report Posted March 20, 2013 Here are a couple more photos. I just cannot quit taking photos of it....lol.
Deckard1979 Posted March 20, 2013 Report Posted March 20, 2013 Such a stunning watch. Congrats! Another one for my wishlist:oSent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk 2
Muaitai Posted March 21, 2013 Report Posted March 21, 2013 Nice watch, can you check if yours have the ADJUSTE DTO FIYE in the movement?
witch Posted March 21, 2013 Report Posted March 21, 2013 Nice watch im thinking of ordering one, whats wrong with the liquid metal engraving ?
sgtguk Posted March 21, 2013 Report Posted March 21, 2013 Nice watch im thinking of ordering one, whats wrong with the liquid metal engraving ? It shouldn't be there Nice looking piece OB1 how does that bezel look in normal light? Is it as Matt as it looks? Love these but must keep wallet shut atm
Obiwan76 Posted March 24, 2013 Author Report Posted March 24, 2013 (edited) Muaitai, yes it says ADJUSTE DTO FIYE. Sgtguk, yes that is truly the finish on the bezel. I love it. The last set of photos were taken with natural sunlight and mirror the exact look of the watch in person. Trust me, even with it's flaws, it is a great rep. I cannot say enough about it.

motoman83 Posted March 25, 2013 Report Posted March 25, 2013 Hi Obiwan, how big is your wrist? The lume/wrist shot is pretty dark but the 45 looks just about perfect.
Bubbleboy Posted March 25, 2013 Report Posted March 25, 2013 Nice piece, there sure are a lot of negative reviews on TrustyTime however. Don't think I could chance it.
migueloliveira Posted March 25, 2013 Report Posted March 25, 2013 Nice piece, there sure are a lot of negative reviews on TrustyTime however. Don't think I could chance it. TrustyTime negative review? Where? Best regards,
browngo1 Posted March 25, 2013 Report Posted March 25, 2013 TrustyTime negative review? Where? Best regards, Yeah, Andrew and Joshua are two of the best out there.
Obiwan76 Posted March 25, 2013 Author Report Posted March 25, 2013 Motoman83, I have little girly wrists...lol. I had to remove 4 links for it to fit me. Bubbleboy, you have nothing to fear from Andrew. He is a joy to deal with and fast for shipping.
Asheron82 Posted March 26, 2013 Report Posted March 26, 2013 having already owned the 42mm pumpkin version which is imho one of the best omega otb reps, but would love to lay my hands on the 45.5mm as i love big watches! hopefully soon by then all the flaws will be fixed!
witch Posted March 26, 2013 Report Posted March 26, 2013 I agree Andrew is one of the best although i emailed him and asked if the 45mm PO was in stock & he replied yes so i ordered it and now have been told i have to be patient because they are waiting for stock from the factories and then have to deal with the backlog of orders. So its just a waiting game
zelezin Posted April 18, 2013 Report Posted April 18, 2013 The back of the Gen watch is in glass or in solid metal?
bamcky2k Posted April 18, 2013 Report Posted April 18, 2013 The back of the Gen watch is in glass or in solid metal? display (see through) caseback is on the gen, shows off the gorgeous calibre 8500 movement
talkingshadow Posted April 21, 2013 Report Posted April 21, 2013 Hi, just a new user here and planning on buying this beauty. One question in regard to the movement. I have never bought a high end replica which is automatic, my concern is regarding the accuracy of its movement. Would it tend to stop even if you keep it on your wrist. (A flaw in the other replicas i bought, may be too cheap hence this issue) or it will keep good time similiar to the gen. I am inclined to buying one in quartz but again automatic movement is so beautiful Any help for a newbie like me will be appreciated, Thanks
witch Posted April 21, 2013 Report Posted April 21, 2013 I got my PO 45mm from Trusty last week & it keeps perfect time, i put it against my gen seamaster pro & the sweep is the same, as to your question of stopping if you wear it every day it shoud'nt stop, but off the wrist mine lasted a good day nd a half. Its a gorgeous watch, buy it you wont be dissapointed.

Thought may be a new version will answer this concern. Should I wait or buy this one. I find the Titanium quite amazing? Thanks
SSTEEL Posted April 21, 2013 Report Posted April 21, 2013 Yes, there is a V2 with the LM left out, and double AR
talkingshadow Posted April 21, 2013 Report Posted April 21, 2013 Yes, there is a V2 with the LM left out, and double AR Sorry but excuse my ignorance. What is LM? Also is this the V2. http://www.ttw888.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=35_114&products_id=10442 Thanks for all your support. Just that I am new here and never bought a rep before. I really want the best as price is not that much of an issue. Would you guys recommend this one or should i wait for the next version with fewer issues. Thanks heaps
