P4GTR Posted August 6, 2008 Report Posted August 6, 2008 Who's who when it comes to the in's and out's of Omega's around here? BT.. Who else?
P4GTR Posted August 6, 2008 Author Report Posted August 6, 2008 Just as I suspected! Am I the only one that thinks we need a new SMP? Do you like hearing that a new one will be coming soon?
b16a2 Posted August 6, 2008 Report Posted August 6, 2008 I would be very excited to hear about a new SMP rep. I think Omega's make some of the nicest watches around, especially some of the Deville range If they brought out a good SMP, it would sell like hot cakes!
piratedzeus Posted August 6, 2008 Report Posted August 6, 2008 Just as I suspected! Am I the only one that thinks we need a new SMP? Do you like hearing that a new one will be coming soon? Please copy all details in here, I am very interested.
takashi Posted August 6, 2008 Report Posted August 6, 2008 Agree... The new SMP non chrono is due... Don't have to replicate the newest coax version, the automatic classic bond will do as good.
By-Tor Posted August 6, 2008 Report Posted August 6, 2008 If they replicate the new one, it will be the red Co-Axial version of course. Does the new gens have AR these days? Either way, I'm happy with my old one. It's not bad at all... I'll source a new pearl for this eventually.
whitestripes Posted August 6, 2008 Report Posted August 6, 2008 Haha, I feel like I've been pushing and looking for a good Bond SMP for a while now. Here's to hoping... (along with the IWC Mark XVI!!!)
P4GTR Posted August 7, 2008 Author Report Posted August 7, 2008 BT, I toyed with a new co-axial SMP this week. If there was AR, I didn't notice it. Yours still hits the mark, very nice. Haha, I feel like I've been pushing and looking for a good Bond SMP for a while now. Here's to hoping... (along with the IWC Mark XVI!!!) So have I, you're not alone if you've recently been looking for a good (non chrono) SMP to add to the collection. I've got reason to believe we may not be waiting too much longer for an update. Just might be some decent versions left out there though. I'm going to see what I can find. Review will follow.
Shundi Posted August 7, 2008 Report Posted August 7, 2008 I love the new version of the gen... And fwiw, it has single sided AR (inside of the crystal)
b16a2 Posted August 7, 2008 Report Posted August 7, 2008 If they replicate the new one, it will be the red Co-Axial version of course. Does the new gens have AR these days? Either way, I'm happy with my old one. It's not bad at all... I'll source a new pearl for this eventually. There is an internal AR on the new ones. My 2005 model (pre-coaxial) also has this internal coating. There is no tint, but there is definitely an inner coating of AR. At the edges in some lights there is a purple ring, and you can just make out two refelection on the glass. One that is very obvious, and another that is very hard to see, reduced very much by the inner AR coating. None of the SMP line have double AR.
JBond Posted August 7, 2008 Report Posted August 7, 2008 Maybe the new SMP exist.... This one is bad but in my opinion we can found another best...!
fitmic Posted August 7, 2008 Report Posted August 7, 2008 I'm praying for the rep Gods to make these ones:
P4GTR Posted August 7, 2008 Author Report Posted August 7, 2008 The gold on leather there looks great Even the plain SS is nice. I like these much better then day date Rolex's. Elegant, but still a little Beefy.
doc savage Posted August 7, 2008 Report Posted August 7, 2008 Those are out, not on leather yet though: But you can get it in PVD, without the tuxedo dial: Maybe Narikaa, Jay, or Deltick can find it for you--most of our trusty dealers don't want to mess around with A21J reps.
P4GTR Posted August 7, 2008 Author Report Posted August 7, 2008 A21J They looked good, until you said A21J. No thanks.
