Just got my QC pics on my 42mm PO. First rep I bought, I have been lurking around here for a while. Not expecting perfection but wanted to see what you guys thought. Hope I uploaded this right.

Looks pretty good except for the He placement, its way off.
Who is your dealer??

Looks like a Trevor $188 PO Ult?

I have recently had QC pics of my orange bezel PO from Trevor and to be honest I have picked up a couple of points that differ from the watch shown in their advert........namely, there is no serial number evident on the 7 o'clock lug, and secondly the position of the HE valve is lower than it is on the one in the advert pics.

These aspects might not bother you too much, however I would rather have one that is identical to the one shown in the advert.

It is your call........it does look like a nice PO though.

Absolutely agree with you on Trevors communication. Spot on and clear to understand.

I suspect they may be trying to clear some stock which has been lying around, which isnt necessarily as up to date as the version in their advert.

Not a bad watch at all, but not what I ordered.

What's going on with the HE valve lately ?

Are the factories gearing up for this ?

Can someone please clarify the correct position of the HE valve as they look very similar to me. both at the 10 position and starting at 55 on the bezel.... if anything the Gen starts a little higher on the 55 but only ever so slightly.

The new Gen Ceramic PO's have the HEV at 10.

The original Gen PO's had it sitting a bit higher.

The new ladies Gen PO's have the HEV sitting a bit lower than 10.
