Eta is always good! The watch itself looks also really good! Hope it arrives quick

It crossed the border last night. I'm expecting it to arrive on or after Wednesday...

F*ck Wednesday. It arrived today:

What do you guys think about my 1st ever high end rep?

I noticed two screws missing in the movement (visible in above photo). I wonder if this is due to the ETA swap.

Watch runs fine this far, but it's been just a few hours in my possession.

Well, as I'm interested in buying a Gen Seamaster, I'm probably going for a Seamaster Rep as my first Rep, to make the waiting time less painful. Although I'm kind of intrigued by the idea of getting a Speedy Rep first (I will later anyway lol).

I'm still investigating which Rep factory / Rep model to pick (VSF seem to be the 'Omega experts'..). As for the dealer, I'm considering Puretime from the TD list here.

Hi eboy, nice to meet you. You can also consider the Omega ploprof. Its one of my all time favourite. Good luck on your hunt !

Thanks. I will.

Thanks! Running perfectly so far, and am definitely enjoying it!

The Nato that came with it is 22mm though, while the lug width is 21. Found a VSF 21mm Bond Nato that should already be on the way to me. The 22 is now attached to one of my watches with 22mm lug width.

The Ploprof is a fascinating watch and I like the 'dramatic' design of it.

But the one I got now with the 43.5 case size is already pushing the limits on my 17cm wrist, so I'm wondering how the Ploprof (55mm x 48mm x 17.5mm) would work out for me.

Well the vintage ploprof is alot thinner. Here is how it looks like on my 17.7cm wrist...

Ahhhh the "Baby" Ploprof! Looks very beautiful! Is this a Gen?

Do they even make a Rep of this?

I just looked it up again, and that doesn't seem to be the Baby Ploprof (which doesn't have the crown protection frame). Goes to show you how little I know about watches. Lol

This is a gen ploprof 600m. The dimension of the Ploprof u posted earlier is the re-issue of this vintage ploprof. The baby ploprof has a round case and smaller than this.
