triplehd Posted March 28, 2006 Report Share Posted March 28, 2006 Ok guys.... Look at what i have here: "ETA" 2892 with Genuine Omega Black datewheel. Perfect for the Omega P.O projects and the Omega 2254.500 (Member Jsph, this may be of interest to you) Damn you marrick ! LOL...Adding another 2892 to your collection I see? I just sent Joe my Blue SMP tp swap out the dial with a gen and realign the bezel....I would have loved to add a 2892 movement to the mod process, but I'll stick with the 2824...unless you're in a giving mood ?

jsph Posted March 28, 2006 Report Share Posted March 28, 2006 ok, mvb -- suitably impressed and very intrigued. you've got to share the whole story now! and what you plan to do with it. [on a perhaps related note: what is just a _little_ bit of a shame, i would say, though, is that the really nice older versions of the seamaster reps, that came with the 2892, were in apparently _thinner_ cases as well, from what i hear. and the seamaster is supposed to be thinner and sleeker, due to this (you rascal!) thinner movement. upgrading a 2824 or 2836 rep with this guy is wild, no doubt, but one still has the thicker rep case. that said, i think the difference is only about a millimeter (current ones about 12.x mm thick, the 2892s might have been closer to 11mm*)... i guess this ranks around the same as other subtle things the real rep connoisseurs notice.] now, on with the story, sir! jsph * anyone who has a 2892 closed-factory 2254.50, i could offer my services as watch thickness measurer. i have a pair of high quality calipers, and for a small fee, would be delighted to measure the thickness of your superior rep. turn around time is approximately 12 - 36months -- but i do very good work!
