A problem for all UPO-owners that needs to get fixed

[Edgematic]

Hi all,

I see and hear more and more about owners of a UPO who lost their pearl etc...

So, when we need a new pearl, all we hear is "we can't get you one because it sits on the bezel"...

I think we need to get this fixed... Is there anyone who knows a source for pearls? Anyone who got one from a dealer?

At the moment, Precious Time is looking for a pearl for me.

Anyone else?

That''s odd... (d4m knocks on wood) I have sold just under 100 of these and have not heard of 1 problem with this. I also have my own from 2 years ago and have not had a problem. I would think that with all the aftermarket bezels out there.. you could pick up a pearl.

Yes indeed, I can source an aftermarket bezel, but they're not from the same quality... And the pearls do not fit our UPO bezel insert.

Do you still have some pearls for sale?

Kind regards,

[Edgematic]

and do you think you or we are able to source one

no, my supplier hates parts... does not want to touch them.. :?

I contacted all dealers and the "alpha-watch company" to ask if they are able to get me a new pearl.

It's a hard task looking for a damn pearl!

For $228 you can get the gen bezel and insert combo from Ofrei [Omega Bezel 082SU1703]:

That's if you want to start modding it to make it a Franken. After the bezel all you'll need is a gen dial and gen hands to make it truly Ultimate.
