jdkno Posted May 28, 2009 Report Share Posted May 28, 2009 I openend up my UPO a few weeks ago and noticed that the anti-mag cover is not there. How much does the anti-mag cover weigh, IOW would having it vs not having it make it feel any heavier / lighter in the hand? How does the anti-mag cover stay in place? Since my watch did not come with one if I was able to source one would I be able to make it stay in place? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
importr Posted May 28, 2009 Report Share Posted May 28, 2009 It seems that there must be a batch of UPOs without the anti-mag cover fitted. My recent (3 months ago) purchase didnt have one either. Yet a year or older UPO had one - which I duly liberated to fit to mine! The cover simply presses onto a lip on the movement ring. Yours should have the tiny lip present. The cover itself weighs next to nothing, less than a penny. Maybe a dealer can source one for you.....the next time you buy a watch from them!

chazglenn3 Posted May 28, 2009 Report Share Posted May 28, 2009 My Rolex Milgauss GV arrived without the anti-magnetic cover installed. Now, I'll have to crack open my UPO and see if the cover is there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HauteHippie Posted May 28, 2009 Report Share Posted May 28, 2009 It is a weightless (and IMO worthless) piece of tin. Don't worry about its absence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chazglenn3 Posted May 28, 2009 Report Share Posted May 28, 2009 Good point, Chief. It's not even worth opening the case to look. Thanks for the dose of reality! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jdkno Posted May 29, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 29, 2009 Well it seems the concensus is its worthless and does not add or take away from the watch so I guess I might as well live without one. Thanks for the help guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
