eclass350 Posted December 7, 2013 Report Share Posted December 7, 2013 Looking for some guidance, newbie to the space and have determined that the Noob 1:1 Liquid Metal looks to be my first rep. Any thoughts/comments about that watch, Asain movement vs Swiss, any paticular dealer I should align with to purchase? any other watch I should consider vs the LMPO? Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knovako2 Posted December 7, 2013 Report Share Posted December 7, 2013 Welcome to the forum, eclass350! It seems that Asian clone movement is a great value for the money, but in my opinion Swill ETA is way to go and is worth the premium!

indywatchguy Posted December 8, 2013 Report Share Posted December 8, 2013 Welcome aboard E! LMPO is a great choice for a first rep! I have one on they way! I just answered the swiss asian question so here's my take http://www.rwgforum.net/topic/165497-lmle-po-42mm-asian-or-swiss/ Also consider the newly released Noob CrPO. I hear its got a much improved band over the LMPO. Angus has got a huge thread over on repgeek about it with a few QC pics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eclass350 Posted December 12, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 12, 2013 Thanks, you have one on the way which dealer did you order from? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
indywatchguy Posted December 12, 2013 Report Share Posted December 12, 2013 (edited) Ordered from Angus at Puretime. I received my LMPO and it is GLORIOUS I also have to say QC pics can be a blessing and a curse. The macro shots really over exaggerate small flaws that would not be visible to the naked eye. However they do help us to see that major flaws. I'm very satisfied with my LMPO and despite the difficulty in adjusting the band I would conside it to be a SUPER REP! I would have to say this is hands down the BEST Omega rep out the box. Just be prepared to either take it to a professional jeweler or you'll need a good watch repair kit with a small hammer, pin remover, and band holder to remove the links. Good luck and enjoy to the max!!!! Edited December 12, 2013 by indywatchguy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
