Trevor Ultimate UPO

[Lenny]

Finally.....it came today.....

I am sooooo glad I bought it ( having had a Reg POrikka just a few weeks ago which gave me the UPO bug)

It really is stunning !

Even the bracelet is a huge step up in size, comfort and quality !!

Strangely the bracelet was EVEN MORE difficult to resize and I have actually made a bit of a mess with some of the little pins....so I'll be asking Trev to supply a few for spares
I only snapped it on bracelet quickly....I did try on the rubber strap I have and its all good !!More photos with strap changes to follow soon!!

ENJOY

Nice one Lenny. You finally got it!

Looks great in the photos. You did a nice job there.

Question is.............will this sway you away from the curse of the Breitling!!

I just wish I could carry off the UPO. The 42mm was big enough for my wrists.

Wishing you many months of happy ownership.

 

[Lenny]

Cheers Colin I must admit I am chuffed with it....great job from Trevor.

I am swaying slowly but surely away from my loved Breitlings however I think I am always gonna have loyalty to them!!

Even I find this watch quite big to wear but it is just right in my opinion....

Pity the bracelets are such a pig resize.....I genuine thought I was beat tonight but two broken screrwdrivers later and persistence I got there )

Looks stunning! Appart from the bracelet and movement is there any other quality improvements? I have a POrikka and wondering if the upgrade is worth it?

 

[jms1977]

Nice piece, as above i have the POrikaa is it much of a step up? as i really like mine

 

[Lenny]

I would say in all honestly gents...yes.

the AR is better> dial crisper with better lume and better markers and no happy feet.

the pearl obviously too is closer to the gen....overall it juist looks much closer to the gen

Minor update
Have not taken the watch off since getting it - have changed strap after a day to leather / orange stitch

loving it !!!

Looks really nice Lenny! Where did you get the strap?

Any chance of a Lume shot ?

Strap came from another forum member but was never used by them - i dont know the brand as i threw the box out however turn your attention to ebay and you shall find.

Lume is adequate - it lights up enough to see the time from sunlight - however a recommended mod would be a relume I reckon.

these terrible photos might give you an idea....
