Holy damn, is this a NICE watch!
DO NOT DELAY. BUY NOW!!!
It's been posted about before, but here's the deal:
Band is very heavy & solid & feels great out of the box. A little cleaning & a baby oil bath & it's butter. The only additional work was to radius some sharp edges on the clasp (2 minutes with a Dremel) and re-size (with a hammer, Vise Grip pliers and a paperclip - no B.S.).

The clasp & deployant work fine. The letters & logo are deeply engraved. "P" and "O" are larger than the rest of the letters in PLANET OCEAN.

The watch head is very nice. Well polished, 120 click bezel, rep-issue pearl, painted (thermographed?) orange numerals, blue tint on crystal (not really anti-reflective it seems). Caseback is nicely finished, again with the larger "P" and "O". Lume is Nicolas Cage (i.e. gone in 60 seconds).
Watch is delivered very securely wrapped & packed. 'Came with a velvet gift bag & a cleaning cloth.

'Wound the watch and it's lost only 5 seconds over a 24 hour period. Nice.

The flaws I have found with this rep: Are you kidding me? This watch was DELIVERED for 65 quid!!! I'd be a complete and total tool to even suggest that there is a flaw in a watch like this that cost little more than a Timex!

My pics suck, but a thread without pics sucks even more!

I just received my new 45.5 pumpkin last week from Reg.
As you can see there ae some differences in these 2 models

They do not look or feel very deep, could be laser etched on the clasp

No serial number or numbers on the band as in the UPO.

This is also different from the one posted above.

Overall I am very happy with it for the price paid. It took 1 week to get to the states
