Now when I got some time togheter I figured I could update my current planet ocean situation!

This is what I my UPO looked like before when it was a "Mini franken".

But as with all the frankens It felt undone :facepalm:

Sent the watch to Wizz who did a full service, waterproofing and mounted the gen parts which I ordered, along with a new SunnyD crystal.

The difference is truly huge, the way the dial reflects light compared to the rep one is truly amazing.

This is the result (sorry for crappy pics):

Gen: Dial, hands, date wheel, tube, crown, pearl
Crystal from SunnyDale

Love the franken! What exactly was the pearl mod, how was it centered?

Thanks.

I ordered a new rep bezel insert and just fitted the a pearl from a SMP insert, it was a straight fit. I found the rep bezel better due to that the wholesaleoutlet insert wasn't snug and had gaps at the outer rim of the insert. The pearl isnt 100% centered in the triangle but it still looks good imo!:thumbsup:
