My Omegas - 42CrPO and Speedy reps & gen 300M

Recommended Posts

Hi,

 

yesterday it was like a christmas day to me, because I received my first new rep, a 42 Omega Seamaster CrPO, that I bought in TrustyTime/Andrew.

 

The watch it's in fact a very god rep, do not know if it's super rep, but for me it is!! :-) Can't find major flaws, and the looking and feeling it's really like a gen one.  

 

Now some photos (in  a gen case from my other Seamaster - just for a better looking :p)

 There is one thing that I need to resolve, the crystal sealant it's misaligned, and it's visible between 9h and 13h. For me I don't consider it a flaw.

The crown and the HE valve are just like the gen one in the look, however I do not like the feeling when I operate with it. It's something wrong with it.

The pearl it's a good pearl, considering the other versions of the rep PO's that I saw here, however when I touch it, the feeling it's very "rude":

The bracelet it's perfect!! Great building quality, very solid and the satin finish it's really spot on:

What I do not like is the movement. The balance it's very well made, but everything else it's very poor. I wish they have a closed version or the metal parts (chassis, etc) with a brushed finish just to give a better look:

And now my gen Seamaster that I bought new many years ago. On this case, it's the midsize version. I just love it!!! :-)

Really hope that Omega give a new look in the bracelet

Side-by-side of course the size difference it's very visible:

The lume, it's almost the same in the rep and the gen:

And now in the wrist:

I've got a 6,5 inches wrist (17.5cm), and I was concern about it. I do not like big watches, but this 42mm it's the perfect size!! :-)

And now, just to close this post, my other Omega. It's a rep that I bought in second hand, but it have many problems... Just hate the yellow crystal, and....it's not working... :p :p It's a future project. ;-)

However, it's a beautiful Omega

And that's all. :)
