UPO is a term for the 45.5mm PO. What you're looking for/at is a v5 PO.

Trevor uses screenshots from other dealers websites for his descriptions. The one in the link you posted already has a 2824 movement, so the price listed is what you'll pay.

The watch in your first post is the 5GPO 42mm. If you like the PO in that size, go for it.

If you want the 45.5mm get a UPO.

Either one you pick, I would ask for the Asian clone 2824. Saves you $$$ and allows you go use Gen parts down the road.

Good luck.

This is why I bought my V5 42mm piece with the clone 2824. I figured that if it was somehow FUBAR'd I could easily replace, or get parts for it.

Luckily I have not needed to do anything other than have Katt massage mine after I did the gen crown/tube mod.
