r11co Posted April 26, 2006 Report Share Posted April 26, 2006 Exactly what I was thinking. The 'slimmer' print is exactly as the Asian I am wearing at the moment. In other words this is a 'parts-bin' special. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cwai02 Posted April 26, 2006 Report Share Posted April 26, 2006 great. i just received the 4th gen PO from andrew......... Your PO is more accurate. I am going to post some comparison picture of the genuine 42.5mm I have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryaku Posted April 26, 2006 Report Share Posted April 26, 2006 Your PO is more accurate. I am going to post some comparison picture of the genuine 42.5mm I have. I agree...I wish Andrew fixed the logo position in the Eta version you belong. It would be enough for me...no need to change dial in my opinion. Also If he could change minute hand with a longer hand would be prefect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canuck88 Posted April 27, 2006 Report Share Posted April 27, 2006 i think this is great that you're doing this, but why can't the factory just fix the placement of the omega symbol??? Seems like a pretty easy fix on their end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems like a pretty easy fix on their end. Andrew, can you clarify whether this watch is 42.5mm with the crown or without? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubiquitous Posted April 27, 2006 Report Share Posted April 27, 2006 I believe it's 42.5mm w/o the crown. The only thing really holding me up from picking up this great watch is that damn minute hand. everytime I get close to pulling the trigger, my eye is instinctly drawn to it, and I start getting second thoughts...

The only thing really holding me up from picking up this great watch is that damn minute hand. everytime I get close to pulling the trigger, my eye is instinctly drawn to it, and I start getting second thoughts... I've seen posts saying it's both 40mm w/o crown and 42mm w/o crown, but no final word from Andrew. I haven't heard back from Ofrei yet about hands and inserts (which is why I want to know the size so badly). I'll post as soon as I hear from them. King says hers is 42.5 w/o crown, BTW. Jos's is 40mm w/o crown. Also, has anyone tried to fit an OEM crown and/or He on their rep PO yet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gran Posted April 28, 2006 Report Share Posted April 28, 2006 This is quite a drama and whats even more exiting is that I am waiting for this exact PO watch but in black...sure hope the modifications are real mprovements and not just hype Regards Gran Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ryaku Posted April 28, 2006 Report Share Posted April 28, 2006 Come on Andrew! Make us happy! Just 2 mods for your 4th gen PO: - change the logo position (just a little higher) - replace the minute hand with a longer one Don't change anything else, price included.

triplehd Posted April 28, 2006 Report Share Posted April 28, 2006 Anals How's this for Anal - Already contacted Ofrei about the dial and hands and was told parts coming in about 3 weeks. And of course, there's always Joe who can mod the dial....many many many choices...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trustywatchguy Posted April 29, 2006 Author Report Share Posted April 29, 2006 Minute Hand.... Logo.... Well..guys... I did heard you. But sometimes some things arent easy to do esp. talking with factory. =P Anyway, even without those things, I can tell you the next 8th shipment of Omega POs coming in next week is likely to be all snapped up again. =) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trustywatchguy Posted April 30, 2006 Author Report Share Posted April 30, 2006 Well.. I ever thought of making the 45mm PO but not worth the effort currently as although I can source good dials and case, the crystal cannot be gotten at all. We need a SAPPHIRE GLASS with AR tint to create the ULTIMATE EFFECT You can ask the owners of the 42.5mm PO which they got from me. It's the AR COATING that SHINES OUT the entire Planet Ocean... Right?!! Cheers, Andrew Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Estaban Posted April 30, 2006 Report Share Posted April 30, 2006 So am I waiting in vain for the 45mm Ultimate PO??? Andrew, did you post the price of your newest PO version? Is it currently listed at your website as the 4th edition or is there a 5th? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
