indywatchguy Posted December 14, 2013 Report Share Posted December 14, 2013 (edited) Hey fellas just received my Noob LMPO and I'm in awe!This is hands down the best Omega rep I have seen in my plus 20 years in the rep game!It surpasses BP CrPO in fit, finish, weight, AR, crown tube assembly, bezel, insert, dial, pear placement, etc and is on point with the gen. I'm very impressed at what noob has done despite the initial batch with the poor dials. The only cons I would say is sizing the band is a bear!The pins are super tight and I recommend taking it to a professional jeweler unless you have an hour or two to spare, patience, and a very good watch repair kit. Also the divers extension could be tighter and does come loose occasionally. Overall this watch is a go and the best Omega rep out there to date! I opted for the Asian ETA although Swiss is available as well from Puretime. Highly recommend pick one up. Enjoy to the max!

hazey Posted December 15, 2013 Report Share Posted December 15, 2013 Congrats Indy it sure looks great. I'd be all over it if LMPO was made in the 45mm. I remember trying on a 42mm PO and it just didnt look right. Pain about the bracelet pins, donnt know why Omega didnt use the screws of the CrPO, they look great and very easy!

indywatchguy Posted December 16, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 16, 2013 Kno the newly released Noob CrPO looks promising however the open case back is a deal breaker for me, instant tell. Overall though I think noob will nail it once again. Angus thread on rep geek has some pics. Lume triangle is a bit off but otherwise looks good.

knovako2 Posted December 16, 2013 Report Share Posted December 16, 2013 Indeed, the glass case back does give off the movement, but I hope they fixed the issue with fading bazel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

indywatchguy Posted December 18, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 18, 2013 Kno from what angus says noob used an entirely different process for the bezel so it won't fade. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whoever Posted December 18, 2013 Report Share Posted December 18, 2013 Who the pumpkin CrPO has not been released yet but is on the way Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk that is great news, thanks Indy! I cry every day since i sold my PuPo to a guy who never even gave me a glance of news....not even if he received it and was happy about it! That's how it goes if you sell to unknown guys from other forums. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pjsayer Posted December 18, 2013 Report Share Posted December 18, 2013 Agreed, Superb rep aided by the fact that gens out there in the wild are pretty rare. Only 'obvious' tells are the lower canon pinion and smoother beat rate of the 2824-2 movement (which I prefer anyway). I've got a gen bracelet on mine which fits the case like a glove...
