Reasons/responses that the case back says speedmaster rather than Seamaster:

"Rare version that slipped the omega factory QC, very collectable".

"High breed, Special version used when using very swift submersable craft".

"This watch caseback is very special it was the only part that survived of my old watch when I took a hit during ops".

Say nothing look at the person as though they are not quite right and take the watch back.

I have one too and I love it dispite this flaw. It has many flaws actually but the overall quality for the price is great. Enjoy, and don't let anyone spoil the fun! :D

so lets add up:
- hour markers not lumed but green coloured
- speedmaster logo on the back... then it went off
- it's 3 minutes fast per day
:(

should have chosen the ETA version from Paul/josh/andrew

Lume is only on the hands... the dials hour markers are green :(

The green lume on the face is funny, looks a little like REALLY GREAT lume in daylight. Like it's just shinning away, somewhat like my 111 gen. I still like the watch.

Thanks but actually my wife said something about it. She is about as interested in my watches as I am about face cream. She has heard me say yada yada lume this and yada yada lume that not really getting it (so I thought) then one afternoon last week she said out of nowhere "wow, the lume on that watch is really good, huh?". I just laughed and because I didn't want to throw her down on her first observation I said."oh yeah" and smiled. :D So optomistic but true.

how is the case material? maybe you can swap in another rep dial or go all out, get nate's caseback, gen dial, swiss mvoement, gen hands?

gen bracelet? :D :D :D

gen?!?!? :shock:

seriously though, how is the case? sharpie edgie?

i would say just wear it in good health - $100 reps are $100 reps. not the best but good intro or beater (though i keep hearing really good stuff about that 45 PO with asian ETA copy)

well of course 100$ is low quality but green dial, breaking case and +3minutes every day annoys me..

I have this watch from WBK. The case/bracelet are actually really nice. Mine doesn't have any sharp edges and is very comfortable to wear.

No sharp edges. Quality really quite nice minus the flaws that Pirate talked about.

As far as comparing to the 45 PO...No comparison. Hands down the PO is a winner. The only difference between the "ultimate and the regular (if you will) is the movement.
