whitestripes Posted September 18, 2008 Report Posted September 18, 2008 hxxp://rolex2u.com/omega-seamaster-automatic-with-blue-dial-and-bezel-watch--12210.html The crownguards look great, the logo has lines through the middle, not bottom, engraved clasp. The caseback is wrong, though. What do you guys think?
DemonSlayer Posted September 18, 2008 Report Posted September 18, 2008 It uses the standard case and bracelet commonly found on the asian 21J SMP's. From what I can see the case is really good minus the HE valve. The dial has good wave pattern. Swap the movement out for the high beat DG4813, the datefont on that is more closer to ETA than this one. Change the bracelet to a better one and then you have a really good rep on your hands, not to mention for a good price.
fauxlex Posted September 18, 2008 Report Posted September 18, 2008 So is the logo with lines through the middle correct or not? What about the clasp? Are the engravings accurate? I ordered one of these from CQout, and I'll post pics when I get it. One other thing I noticed, is the lume at 3 o'clock is much larger than the gen.
whitestripes Posted September 19, 2008 Author Report Posted September 19, 2008 The lines should be through the middle. They f*ck this up on EVERY expensive Bond rep (and the Aqua Terras, too). It really gets me because it's quite obvious. This [censored]-poor flaw can be found on the new Seamaster chrono, and I hope to god that it doens't happen on the new non-chrono Bond. However, I am almost 100% sure that it will be f*cked up.
TeeJay Posted September 21, 2008 Report Posted September 21, 2008 I can't speak highly enough about Tony's professionalism as a dealer, and, barring a watch he can't source from his suppliers, I don't buy watches from anyone else. I have the previous version of the Co-Axial SMP (without the 3 marker, with 'Omega' as dial print rather than the metal attachment) and it's still going strong. I don't wear it anymore, but that's just because I've moved onto PAMs, not because of any issue with the watch. I don't think you'd be disappointed with it
whitestripes Posted September 22, 2008 Author Report Posted September 22, 2008 Who's tony? Is that who runs rolex2u.com, or are you talking about tonyxkf on cqout?
casanile Posted September 23, 2008 Report Posted September 23, 2008 My 2 cents 'cause I have the gen on my wrist. Dial is not bad but DW fonts are really innacurate, Hands are too short, Omega logo has funny feets and of course as usual the pearl is off...
mars08 Posted September 23, 2008 Report Posted September 23, 2008 Who's tony? Is that who runs rolex2u.com, or are you talking about tonyxkf on cqout? Same bloke apparently.
TeeJay Posted September 23, 2008 Report Posted September 23, 2008 Who's tony? Is that who runs rolex2u.com, or are you talking about tonyxkf on cqout? Yes, Tonyxkf on CQout. That's his own site
