NEW Narikaa 42mm PO & Gen SMP Pics

[Q5?]

The 42mm PO from Narikaa has been such a pleasure to own.
The quality of this piece is amazing!
I have given it quite a bit of wrist time since acquiring it.

This will not be my last purchase from Narkiaa.

Here is a a few pictures of the new younger brother:

And to show that I have at least a decent idea of what quality means....

The older brother (Gen SMP):

And the brothers together:

I'm sure I will post more pictures of this 42mm PO!!!!
I just have to keep practicing my photography and get creative.

Nice pictures.
You gotta love the SMP. Thanks for posting this pic with the watches side by side. Its clear to me now that i will get the Gen SMP. I was having doubts between the SMPO and SMP, now I dont.
Thanks!

Hi q5,

Good to see that you finally got a PO that has a better quality and that you're happy with. What happened now to your "other" PO?

Cheers,

Thanks for the positive review, I am waiting for mine (orange bezel). It shipped Sunday/Monday so I should see it soon.

Re: NEW Narikaa 42mm PO

the genuine PO doesn't have that kind of Omega symbol under the 12 o' clock does it? It is straight at the start and end of the symbol without the dash. Only the SMP has that dash at the end I believe am I correct?

EDIT: Hey I did some PO picture searching and saw that this guy's rep doesn't have that incorrect symbol. How did he do it!?!?!

the gen PO doesn't have the "happy feet" omega symbol. I know of one person who modded that and put on a non-happy footed omega symbol on.

Re: NEW Narikaa 42mm PO

Well I knew if I put some effort into my pictures and write up, I would get a few responses.
Thanks for reading my post and your comments.

I am on a hunt for a rubber strap for the other 42mm PO.(the timesshop $108 model)


I am hopping to get a few more Planet Oceans in the arsenal soon.
Probably the Casino Royale and the standard 45.5.

Thanks again.

I have a rubber strap for a 42mm PO if you are interested. PM me for details.

I HIGHLY recommend buying the 45.5mm Planet Ocean from Daytona4Me when you are ready to squeeze the trigger. I LOVE my orange/orange UPO!

Re: NEW Narikaa 42mm PO

Just got my 42mm PO from Reg. Question, the Omega symbol under 12 oclock on mine is very dark and almost invisible when looking straight at the watch. When looked at from an angle it shows up because of reflected light.

Is this correct? Is this an AR issue? Or is this just a small flaw....

 

[Q5?]

Re: NEW Narikaa 42mm PO

That is the correct Omega logo.

I have a few PO's and one of them is a poor version that looks chrome at every angle. (not good!!)

Here are a few pics of a gen.

Congrats on your new one!!!

Re: NEW Narikaa 42mm PO

Re: NEW Narikaa 42mm PO

Just received my PO from Reg. My first rep and goota say I'm hugely impressed. Looks great and feels great too! Thanks Reg for an excellent service.

I don't think it will be long before I have to go into rehab. Reg also picked up a black Aquaracer for me and I only started researching reps a couple of weeks ago. Will it ever end???

Nor does it have a fluted bezel, He valve directly at 10 o'clock, or a pearl that looks like it came from a cheap sub replica.. I'd be interested if those features were fixed, it'd probably cost the watchmaker nearly nothing to do that. Although the bezel issue might be another story.

 

[Q5?]

Hay amptor,

What does "fluted bezel" mean?

 

[samura]

Hello!

I'm also a happy Narikka's PO owner and regarding mods, the only one I'm really decided to do is the pearl one because even a Omega curious person will tell in a second "That's a replica". Now the thing is : How do we mod it? Is there a Tutorial?

 

[takashi]

Don't bother modding it. This one is not even the 4th gen PO 42.5mm. You have to live with wrong He valve placement, you need to change the dial, crown and bezel.

The rep 20mm rubber strap has the metal portion protruding out. This may not fit the replica. You need to cut it away.

 

[Q5?]

Taka,

Do you think the pearl is a hard fix.(believe me I like my PO the way it is and I don't care)
But couldn't he just move it to the center of the triangle like the gen?

You have given me good advice in the past, thanks!
