kronos twin Posted February 21, 2009 Report Posted February 21, 2009 I'm in for a Black Bezel 45.5mm with all the mods listed herein. Hoping is not a foregone conclusion.

MasterOfPuppets Posted March 3, 2009 Report Posted March 3, 2009 guys do u remember this thread no hope?!
spooky driver Posted March 5, 2009 Report Posted March 5, 2009 lets see some samples who are you talking to?
amptor1 Posted March 5, 2009 Report Posted March 5, 2009 (edited) Silix PO unfortunately have a lot of flaws but the logo. Best 42mm PO out of the box was the well known 4th gen. Main flaws to be corrected are: logo placement bracelet (there was a big gap between the firts two links if i remember right) pearl Ar (genuine has a very good ar coating) I'm not very confident in this kind of "projects" either. By the way, Silix already made an attemp and his PO was one of the worst, it had a very good logo but overall was full of mistakes . The worst flaw the 4th generation has is the lume falling off the markers, it happens to most people. Forgot to mention that the lume doesn't glow bright at all, they need to add more lume into their paint mix when they build this watch. People don't seem to realize that these are still replicas and due to that they are very cheaply made even though you are spending over $200 on it. I'd possibly be interested in the watch if this flaw was corrected and also a correct crown and proper omega logo without feet on it. Another flaw mentioned is there's a gap on the links by the lugs I think. ETA only for me though, no cheap asian movement. Go 5th gen. Edited March 5, 2009 by amptor1
MasterOfPuppets Posted March 5, 2009 Report Posted March 5, 2009 i personally wouldn't expect this to happen in the next 6 months, maybe even more i think that manufacturers already know about the mistakes that the UPO has, everybody has been critisizing it since it came out and fixing changing these details costs alo, however, people are still buying it, so the these small details dont matter to them so why make a whole new watch when the one u have is already selling well?
amptor1 Posted March 6, 2009 Report Posted March 6, 2009 I was told that the guy in charge of making the 42.5mm PO is "bored" with it and that's why he stopped. The cartel bought the last of his complete time pieces so they could hoard them and drive up the price, and some other dealers were able to get some parts that were left over and build franken watches out of those. It would be cool if the guy would give it another shot. I believe the 45mm is made in a different factory and that is why it was produced longer than the 42.5.

siesta181 Posted March 6, 2009 Report Posted March 6, 2009 Not gonna happen guys... The best alternative is organize a massive groupbuy and put pressure on the dealer to lower his price. Use money saved to mod whatever features that bugs you.
MasterOfPuppets Posted March 6, 2009 Report Posted March 6, 2009 true, or maybe one of the members who have a good relationship with one of our dealers, could ask them if its possible, cuz i dont think that the dealers have seen this thread, and im new here, so someone else has to do it
krpster Posted March 8, 2009 Report Posted March 8, 2009 Not gonna happen guys... The best alternative is organize a massive groupbuy and put pressure on the dealer to lower his price. Use money saved to mod whatever features that bugs you. Yup...second that
siesta181 Posted May 15, 2009 Report Posted May 15, 2009 This has the potential to be one of the longest threads ever.....
