Does anyone have one of these or can they point me to a thread related to the Planet Ocean GMT good planet Special Edition. As seen here. http://www.pf-818.com/omcpogmt103-pocean-ceramic-blue-ssss-swiss-2836-p-15038.html

I have seen a genuine version of this watch in person and it is stunning. I have two concerns. One the replica has a Swiss ETA 2836 which probably means rebuilt JUNK... Why not offer it with a A2836? My other concern is I believe I read somewhere that this watch has problems. I wonder is it worth the risk? Is it an accurate rep, I haven't had time to study genuine pictures compared to the rep and I'm to new to be an expert on anything.. Anyone lend a hand it would be much appreciated.

I have not seen a Gen/Rep comparison, but I think Mr. Pap has reviewed the Rep here, let me see if I can find it. I for one, I love it. I would get one soon.

Thank you I was just comparing pictures online and the spacing of the numbers on the bezel is poor but that may not be the case with all examples

Yeah. I'll still get it later on, there's little chance those things will get improved.

I got this one. The watch is good but not a super rep...gmt function doesn't work correctly(may be its only mine)
I ve got a gent pic, the major flaw is bracelet.

How is it the GMT function doesn't work? what's wrong? if its a 2836 gmt movement in proper order it should work, Your bezel insert looks good though the numbers are not consistently spaced from the inner circle. I may have to get one as your pictures look good to me.

I have one. The GMT should be applied on the dial but it is just printed, the only major flaw with the overall design, somthing you would never notice unless you were looking for it. My numbers are not consistent but much better than the one above, I no-goed the first set of QC pics due to this, the one I got isn't noticeable again unless you are looking for it. My bracelet is solid quality and finish (though I hate removing links on all the POs) the machining is fine on the screw caps. My 2836 works just as it should. I have been very happy with it, but I choose not to dwell on every inaccuracy. It is my favorite PO by far.

The numbers were changed(I sent it back to TD) can add pic later.
The GMT working but not correctly(it goes together with major hand but I few hours you realized that gmt hand points out wrong time.
Overall I like the design of this watch, will try to fix gmt with local watch smith
