simzger Posted March 20, 2009 Report Share Posted March 20, 2009 hey guys i read around the board the reviews of the 42mm PO and i want to buy one. but i have some questions: 1) am i right that of the 42mm, the the 4th gen is the best one? 2) is this one a 4th gen one: http://www.silix-prime.com/product.asp?id=1501 3) if so, doesnt it have a wrong logo? omega logo with "feet"? i think by-tor said the non-feet one is the right one but that the silix rep is the best. can anyone help me to find the perfect 42mm PO? thanks so much simon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are correct that the feet on the logo are wrong, but the hands are short as well, that is the way it goes with these reps. There are a couple of dealers selling a 21j 42mm PO for around $100 that look pretty good, but they have the 45mm style of bezel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimster Posted March 21, 2009 Report Share Posted March 21, 2009 The watch seems to have the correct He placement just above the 10 marker which is correct. When the He marker is centered on the 10 it is a dead give away. You can change the hands for about $60 and the dial but you can't change an "off" case.

Jim hey guys, thanks for your help. so in other words, there is no 4th generation PO 42mm with correct logo, and the only way to get a correct logo is by ordering the 45mm ultimate version? i think i have seen a 42mm PO with a correct logo (from silix?) somewhere around here in a rewiew, but maybe i was wrong. EDIT: this is the review by by-tor i was talking about: 42mm 4th gen with correct logo. http://www.rwg.cc/members/Review-OMEGA-Pla...Ocea-t7483.html does anyone know where i can get this version? best, simon Edited March 21, 2009 by simzger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nnomad Posted March 21, 2009 Report Share Posted March 21, 2009 (edited) Ha ha.... im a freak now.. i like this...... feast yourself: The new ultimate version of the 45mm introduced a wrongly shaped logo, its been said the feet are shaped like the older seamasters ..good news is, if that bothers you, well... you're just like me, you'll need serious neurological evaluation: Unless you give to the person that examines the watch a nuclear molecular microscope...you wont be able to see the difference.. so... go for the 45mm!..it aint all that big if you go for the rubber strap..and if that is good enough for bond..i'll think you'll do just fine.. cheers A.

bosk Posted March 22, 2009 Report Share Posted March 22, 2009 The best u can do now is get a 4th gen somehow and stick in a gen dial (which will improve the entire watch tremendously due to the lume). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you sure he sells it? I am assuming you mean Trustytime? I found it on his webpage, however he says he doesn't have it anymore.

If you see Kay Posted March 23, 2009 Report Share Posted March 23, 2009 the fluting on the bezel is off and all versions of the PO will have the incorrect fluting. The gen also has very bright orange numbers and a dull orange, fine tip on the seconds hand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If those two don't carry it, then there are none left but some may show up used in the trading section from time to time. 4th generation ones aren't perfect. Usually the lume falls off the dial. if you can live with that or get it relumed, it is a nice watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

castlemountain Posted March 26, 2009 Report Share Posted March 26, 2009 which version is this? 4th gen?! Looks like a clone site of Trustytime. So this might be no version - just a scam? The web page has Trustytime-name and the picture has another name. Looks very suspicious to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
