not 42mm though like gen. and of course that pearl!:nah:

but does have the applied numbers and red "Seamaster" ... it's a start!



Sorry if this was posted before.

Has anyone seen this one in the flesh?. I'm surprised there hasn't been more of a buzz about this one.

Personally, I've been keeping my ear to the ground for this rep ever since I heard about the release of the gen. But I think, as the OP said, the ultimate let down with this for me is the size. I already have a 42mm PO, and I think the 45 would be too big for my wrists, as well as being inaccurate to the real thing.

That said, I'm now thinking I would like to create a fantasy of the liquid metal; I was a little disappointed that Omega didn't PVD/DLC/full ceramic this limited edition in the first place, and I'd so love an all black PO!

+1 All DLC would be drop dead sexy! I would be all over it. However, I still may try to grab one of these liquidmetal POs as I want a PO and dont have any yet, might as well start there.

They'll finally get it close to being right, but it will take a few revisions. You know how it goes. I'm looking forward to this one once they work the kinks out. Maybe the PO LM V7.2 will be worth it.

I'm sorry but that's not even close for a first try.

I don't really know where to start:

- the awful pearl (the could at least get the UPO one). I think they thought this was a DSSD.
- the bezel ridges are too wide
- the logo (really, how hard it is to get the new omega logo right?)
- the seconds hand (no red tip)
- the bezel insert looks strange but the ceramic photos are sometimes misleading but it should shine. The pics have a matte look.
- can't really tell but I wonder how thick the raised numbers and Omega name are. Based on my experience the Omega logo on the UPOs is not even close in thickness of the gen.
- The dial probably needs to be ceramic too (and it's not)
- The date window should not be beveled.

Pass ...
