Any comments on the case back?
Engraving vs print?

How much was that Toro CRPO strap?

Mine come in later today.

not to cr@p on peoples purchases but I used to have a LMPO when they first came out. So far in the pictures I can immediately see the following QC issues.

Pearl is not as good as the older batch
Lume application is sloppy. I can see some lume overruns.

Can someone help me understand the full list of omega planet oceans as there seem to be so many models. LMPO, CRPO etc?

AR is good and the caseback is engraved.

Yeah I'm not sure what the fuss was over the bracelet but having a V6F CRPO I can say that there are screws near the head and not pins but not a biggie.

AR is nice, and overall quite nice. Markers are mostly spot on I think, might be off here and there by a hair.

This will probably be it for me for quite a while as this was my holy grail of reps.

Maybe I'll release one, still thinking whether I really need two, LOL :laugh:

It's good to hear the bracelet is actually nicer than anticipated. I didnt want to take a chance and ordered an extra noob CRPO bracelet with screws vs the pins but it seems like maybe it was unnecessary.

The post about the bracelet is confusing because it seems to be referring to the CRPO. The old LMPO bracelet was definitely a bitch. I don't know about the new one but it had pins not screws. If you have pins ... be careful, if you have screws ... then happy days. It wasn't a fuss it was a helpful tip.

Lagunax. I can see you changed the bracelet but did you try resizing it? That's when the problems start.

It has pins. Screws are more classy. Sorry. I agree, worth getting the screws. Actually the V6F metal bracelet looks better but is missing the 'Professional" lettering.

I'm on the fence whether to order a bracelet with screws or just take it in to my local watchsmith to do the pins as I'm gonna get it water treated anyways.

Kinda digging this 20mm Obris Morgan Isofrane style strap I had already as of now.
