Silix version has more flaws..wrong hands...wrong markers.

+1

But sort of an intermediate between the UPO Lite (with the stripping crown tubes) and the UPO. Price is $150 with an ETA movement. Not a bad deal, really, just not the "Ultimate".

JMHO.....YMMV

Not sure how wrong the Silix PO hands are, I have one, and they look 100% like the original... Also, their price is still 150 plus shipping, with an ETA, which I own...

check this out... As far as I can determine, the case is a UPO case, but the dial is not... The case has the serial number by lug at 7 (816880298) I removed the back, and the o-ring had been lubed... The watch runs a constant 4 seconds per day fast...hoping it will slow down a sec or two in the future... The band works perfectly, although my watch guy scratched one link during resizing... I have since purchased my own pin remover...

I like it enough to have already ordered the 42 mm version...

Cheers,

Rayman

I thought the Lite had a cloned movement, not an ETA movement?

Also, the lite have 20mm lugs, the UPO has 22mm.

Am I correct??
