First two things I notice are the logo and the bezel font. The logo is AGAIN wrong like in the UPO having the little legs and the bezel font seems a bit thinner compared to the gen. That's all I can see for now but didn't really look into it. Other please share your thoughts and any noticed flaws

 

[Seifert]

Nice! Finally! - But why can't they get that d*** logo right for one times sake?

 

[alvinado]

let's wait for v5..

here is the gen

 

[Seifert]

I don't think it is fair to compare the old Ploprof to the newly released rep.
I actually think it is pretty good, and especially when you have in mind that is the V1

The one on the left is the first Ploprof from about 1970 - The rep is of the 2009 model.

 

[trksh-bzr]

gotta own one though............

 

[QinetiQ]

that thing looks sick on an orange rubber strap!

Ok, Q just said "Wow what a great deal for 228 but is it too good to be true?" Then Andygt just told me that this may be the light version according to Trusty via FaceBook. What are the odds, 228= 2813 no AR lite version and Pics are of the 1:1? :thinking:

EDIT: Asian 2824 it is then. Great price.

I gotta have one.....Thanks for the link. Gotta have it just to see what the build quallity is like although I know that 49mm is going to be waaaay too big for my 6.75" wrist....ha! Curiousity if nothing else....

Wonder if the orange rubber is available? That is pretty sweet looking...

I really hope you're wrong. I do hope this is the Lite version since there are many thing to improve on it and hopefully they will be dealt with in the Ultimate or 1:1 version. I tend to think this is the Lite version due to the green-ish tint of the crystal which makes me think it's not even sapphire lol

on the wrist it actually is big, but not so big as the measurements would make you think. go to a gen dealer and test it on your wrist

the rep looks like a rep though, pity

 

[polaris]

cool.
Look forward to the reviews

 

[Dr.Verylong]

I really like the orange strap. But I'd never buy that ep because I'd hate it that I couldn't go scuba diving with that one.

 

[trailboss99]

Good done and dusted.
Now, where the hell is our correct subdial spacing Moonie?????

Totally agree on this one!
Don´t make me save up to buy the gen one...
I really want this one badly >.<

 

[amptor]

We need side by side caseback shots. I have a feeling that the engraving on the back is totally incorrect like on the 4th generation 42mm PO.

[avenger007]

Wow. That looks pretty close. They did a good job on this one, at least for a first pass at it.

 

[R2D4]

I agree and for the price I am kind of excited. Not enough to buy it, but just enough to have faith in the future of Omega replication. Fix that logo though.

I like this one in a "classic car" kind of way. I know its the new version, but it just screams 70's divers. Now if they could just get that mesh strap right.
