jester69 Posted August 6, 2014 Report Share Posted August 6, 2014 Saw this post, freakin' nice watch. http://www.rwgforum.net/topic/113817-tribute-to-my-favorite-replica-watch-seamaster-chronograph/ Here's what I found. Which one do you guys think accurately represents the one in the link above? http://www.ttw888.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=35_66&products_id=6696 http://www.pf-818.com/000omse00111-300m-2008-chrono-blue-a7750-updated-p-9106.html http://www.puretime-asia.com/product/seamaster-chrono-diver-blue-2008-updated/ http://www.puretime-asia.com/product/seamaster-chrono-diver-ss-blue-dial-on-bracelet-a7750/ Also on Puretime I noticed lots of other models in a slightly larger size. Can anyone recommend a larger size that looks like the one in the first link? Maybe 43-45mm? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GenTLe Posted August 6, 2014 Report Share Posted August 6, 2014 Give a look at this stunning piece here: http://www.rwgforum.net/topic/161542-omega-seamaster-300m-ceramic-black-a-review-finally/ Not a chrono, but you gain in reliability, and mate, it's a wonderful piece... It's this one: http://www.pf-818.com/om300m101-2012-seamaster-300m-ssss-black-swiss-p-14487.html About your links: 1st and 2nd are exactly the same watch, so it's just a matter of TD choice. The other 2 @Puretime also looks incredibly similar, but one has a better pearl but bad hands... I'd ask Angus @ puretime what's the difference or if it's a double entry of the same watch...

icoopernicus Posted August 6, 2014 Report Share Posted August 6, 2014 I agree with GenTLe on the Seamaster Professional with ceramic bezel. I have this watch and it is absolutely stunning! Among the best reps ever made and a piece which I am proud to have in my collection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jester69 Posted August 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 6, 2014 I was also looking at that one as well, but the first Omega I want is the Chrono. Thanks for the help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pam007 Posted August 6, 2014 Report Share Posted August 6, 2014 I bought my Gen Omega Chrono back in 2001 and I never wore much it because I found it to be to top heavy. The chrono felt like I had a 1 pound weight tied to my wrist. I sold it last year and bought a Gen Ceramic SMP 300. The ceramic 300 has a slimmer profile and is much thinner and lighter. I barely know it's on my wrist. The best thing to do is to go to an Omega AD and try on both the watches and see which you like best. Good Luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jester69 Posted August 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 6, 2014 LOL I am literally on my way to a dealer now. Thanks for the suggestions. Believe it or not I like the heavy watches. I wear a pretty heavy automatic Invicta Reseve right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GenTLe Posted August 6, 2014 Report Share Posted August 6, 2014 (edited) Believe it or not I like the heavy watches. I wear a pretty heavy automatic Invicta Reseve right now. LOL, so take a Tag Calibre 36 (rep). I got it las Monday and wearing it from 2 days: it's amazing, but it's a bloody chunk of heavy steel. Put it on the company internal post office scale and it was 220g (0,49 pounds)!! Edited August 6, 2014 by GenTLe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jester69 Posted August 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 6, 2014 WOW, that's heavy. I think I have to go the bigger one, I think it's 44.5mm. The 41mm is bit small for my wrists, plus I like the bigger watches. Here are some wristies. They're not great, but the best I could do in a store without looking weird.

jester69 Posted August 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 6, 2014 Ok so I'm having trouble finding the model I want on Trusty Time or Perfect Clones, I'll try Pure Time and Toro's sites after posting this. If anyone knows if they make this particular model I'd appreciate it. Oh, and I want an automatic. The model number from the Store is 21230445003001 here the watch on Omega's site http://www.omegawatches.com/collection/seamaster/diver-300-m/co-axial-chronograph-44-mm/21230445003001 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jester69 Posted August 7, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 7, 2014 I emailed 'the boys' they don't make that model. So I think I'll go with one of these. The problem is I can find the chorono in the size I want but it's a planet ocean. I like the cuts near the crown on the seamaster pro better. http://www.pf-818.com/omse01021-planet-ocean-chrono-ssss-black-7750-p-15904.html http://www.pf-818.com/omse10012-divers-chrono-25945200-black-a7750-28800bph-p-2926.html http://www.pf-818.com/000omse00111-300m-2008-chrono-blue-a7750-updated-p-9106.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kernow Posted August 7, 2014 Report Share Posted August 7, 2014 As far as I know the older (pre ceramic) Seamasters have been out of stock with the TD's for some time now. I have a new yellow Seamaster chrono bought from a great member here. It's a little larger than the old versions, 44 or 45mm I'd say. There are two sizes of the new Seamaster chrono, 41 and 45 (if I remember correctly). I think the TD's stock the larger size, not sure about the smaller one. Mine is lovely Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jester69 Posted August 7, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 7, 2014 @Kernow, really? Seems like they only carry the smaller version and Seamaster Planet Ocean. I like the Seamaster Pro. Can you provide a link to any TD that you know of that carries the larger version? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GenTLe Posted August 7, 2014 Report Share Posted August 7, 2014 Look at the 2 pages herehttp://www.torobravos2014.com/index.php?route=product/category&path=37_128_129 But ask availability before to pull the trigger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jester69 Posted August 7, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 7, 2014 @Kernow, AH!! That's the one, just looking for the one with the bracelet. Did you get it from Toro? Also how nice of a rep is it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kernow Posted August 7, 2014 Report Share Posted August 7, 2014 I got it from a member on here in a M2M sale. I don't know where he got it from. Sorry. But, it proves that they are available.

kernow Posted August 7, 2014 Report Share Posted August 7, 2014 It's actually a nice rep, not quite a 'super rep' but it holds its own against most reps out there. I'll try and post a photo in the morning as its now bed time! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jester69 Posted August 7, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 7, 2014 Cool, thanks. I'd appreciate it. I'd rather have the blue, but I don't think it's available. But between the black and the yellow, I think the yellow gives it a little 'something'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jester69 Posted August 8, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 8, 2014 I found the watch, kind of. Correct one and size, but wrong color, but I'm going to get it anyway until the blue comes out. What do you guys think, Yellow or Black? I can't decide. http://www.puretime-asia.com/product/seamaster-300m-diver-ss-black-dial-yellow-inner-bezel-on-ss-bracelet-a7753/ http://www.puretime-asia.com/product/seamaster-300m-diver-ss-black-dial-black-inner-bezel-on-ss-bracelet-a7753/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GenTLe Posted August 8, 2014 Report Share Posted August 8, 2014 Black & red looks better, in my view. But it's just my taste. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kernow Posted August 8, 2014 Report Share Posted August 8, 2014 Here you go. You can compare the size against an earlier chrono. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
