looks great. shame about the dial print being wrong.


what do you mean "the dial print (swiss made) is wrong" ?
Can you please clarify this ?
Or do we need an electron microscope ?

thanks !

No special equipment required, just your eyes. Only you can decide if it bothers you or not...

QC accepted today.
Pearl is not perfectly centered, but the rest looks damn good..especially the critical 12. Therefore, I will take it.
I noticed that the pearl-ring is thinner
than the watch of cwfmon , post #192
In additon, my serial number is different too... ...strange

Did they sort the clasp out on these? I had one and it was the bollocks apart from link to the clasp always sort of folded a bit. Pissed me of enough to move it on

So how have you guys been resizing the bracelet? The last time I had an LMPO I put the CRPO bracelet with screws on it.

Do I simply push the pins out from one side to the other and resize? I have a pin to push these links out, but it seems like they're either in there really good or I'm doing it wrong. Doesn't help that the bracelet has no arrows indicating which direction to push the pins.

Any help appreciated!

You can push the link pins out from either side. The main issue is at the clasp links. I broke 3 of my pin removal tools and still no success. I replace the clasp and clasp links with Noob UPO clasp. If you can remove the clasp links, you can fix the folding links.

If you replace the LMPO bracelet, reused the SELs of the LMPO.

Sounds brutal. Hopefully I'm able to take a few links off successfully!

The regular removable link pins are very easy to remove. Just make sure you do NOT lose the metal center pin sleeve.

I used a bracelet block, a hammer, an a pin tool. Beforehand I ultrasonic cleaned the bracelet.

On the genuine bracelet it does matter which direction you push out or insert the pin, and there is also a front and back to the pin itself.

I resized the bracelet in my v6 yesterday without issue. I use a pin pushing tool to get the pin out a centimetre or two and then I grab hold of it with pliers or a vice grip. Then I pull it out the rest of the way being careful not to bend it.

To put it back in, I use a watch mallet to get it 90% in and the last bit I presser it hard down on a countertop.

This is the method I had to use. Although it was frustrating but I made it in the end.

My bracelet wasn't the best so I got another one .

Need to buy an ultrasonic cleaner next...

I could tell that the pins were stubborn compared to omega genuine omega band with pins, and a seiko. The lmpo band was my third time resizing this style of bracejet. I watched a video and read two tutorials before attempting the three. I found the lmpo trouble free to resize but one has to do it precisely.

I ended up purchasing a watch repair kit online after I got 2 links off my LMPO and broke my only tool to get pins out. Plus I was using ACTUAL tools like a hammer, etc. Hopefully the kit that's arriving today (thanks Amazon) will let me complete the job.

Finally got mine from InTime today. The wait was brutal but totally worth it. I was a able to resize the bracelet myself after reading the last few posts. Loving this thing...especially since this is my first rep!

I’ll post a pic as soon as I can figure out how.

Full-size version. Sorry for the duplicated picture post but figured the full res might be preferable to some.

On a side note, as I stated in a previous post, the incorrectly truncated hashes on each side of the 6 really bothered me in photos but once I put this thing on my wrist, I forgot all about them. This thing is beautiful.

It is gorgeous, its so close to gen. That minor detail will never be noticed by 99.9% of the worlds population. Wear it proudly my friend, its a thing of beauty.

While I don’t completely disagree with you, I doubt 70 million people could spot that error!

Where can I find gen bezel? I did a very good thing
