Omega Ultra Deep white dial, TF

[Foomanstu]

I currently own the VSF models of the Omega Ultra Deep dark blue dial, Seamaster Deep Black, Seamaster 300 and an Aquaterra green dial. I think they are all superb replica's. The ultra deep is one of my favorites as I constantly admire it and it really draws glances. So, I decided to purchase another.

The one I like is the white face with blue dial but was not made by the VSF but by the TF. I had not read any reviews of TF watches but decided to take a chance as I really liked the watch. I've been wearing it now for a week and the quality seems to be on par with VSF. It looks fantastic and the build quality seems top-notch. It is keeping very good time. I've not yet found anything I dislike about it. The one thing I do like about the ultra deep is it has no date. I change watches on a weekly basis and only adjust the time and never the date.

So anyone contemplating an ultra deep from the TF, I would recommend based on my experience.

What wrist circumference do you have?

 

[Foomanstu]

Roughly 7 inches or a mil or 2 less than 8 cm.

Ok.. I have asked you cause I reaaaally like the ultra but I have a 6.5 wrist circumference and I think it would be too much for my wrist unluckily

 

[Foomanstu]

One half inch smaller is not that much. Plus, the watch looks so good that you will always enjoy looking at it. The main reason I buy Omega reps is because I like the way Omega watches look. I think they are some of the most attractive watches and I buy them to please myself. My two ultra deeps easily attract the most attention, especially from younger guys. Not that I wear them to attract attention but it is such a big, bold and brash beauty. And even if you don't like it, you could likely easily sell it for what you paid for it.

I think you are right. I fell for ultra 75 th anniversary and think after this conversation I will buy it

Great looking watch! Is the dial color really snow-white?

VSF dark blue, TF white

Ok- looks really snow-white in the Texan sun-thanks so much. So after searching a long time for a complete white watch (with only blue or grey applications) this must be (beside my Pam778) the only sporty one. Why the hell they use also a black font and the black ring inside!

Are the incredible height of 18/18,5mm a problem for wearing for you?

 

[Foomanstu]

I consider the Ultra Deeps warmer weather watches. If you wear long sleeve shirts with button cuffs, like business shirts, for work or during the cool seasons, they will not fit under the cuff unless you leave the cuff unbuttoned. Here in Texas it is short sleeve shirt season most of the time so it is only an issue for me when I'm wearing a business shirt, when in this case I'll wear a thinner watch. Otherwise the ultra deeps have become my favorite watches. I like them because they are substantial, especially the thickness. It makes them stand out. I just love that big hunk of stainless steel protruding from my wrist. And like all watch lovers do, I enjoy admiring it repeatedly throughout the day. The combination of the white face with blue numbers and the blue bezel is presents a striking look. I was reluctant to get the white face UD but now I am so glad I did because it looks so good. So no I don't have a problem with the thickness or height of the watch, I like it because of this.

Great! Think the next one must come to me! Btw: I hate long sleeves

How often are you wearing these and how often are you screwing and unscrewing the crown ? On my VSF ultra deep the crown stripped after barely 6 months of light use…..

 

[Foomanstu]

My dark blue face VSF I have had for about a year and have probably worn it for a cumulative total of about 6 months. I have unscrewed and screwed in the crown quite a few times. In addition, I have several other VSF Seamasters I have adjusted adjusted on a regular basis. I have not had any issues with the stripping of any of the crowns. Recently, I read about others having this issue and now take special care when I tighten the crowns. When you stripped it was it when you were tightening it? I'm curious as to how people are stripping them.

I’m always very careful with all my watches reps or otherwise. Very gentle with the crown operation and I always make sure to engage the thread gently and then tighten up without any over tightening , just enough to close the crown up. My VSF Ultra deep worked fine for the 1st 3-4 months and then started having some issues. The turns to tighten the crown became less and less indicating the tube threads were beasically wearing out. A few months after that it stopped screwing in….
I’ve since had the threads on both crown and tube cleaned up completely and shit her end the stem, it’s now a push / pull crown and works flawlessly without any further issues. I’ve had this happen on 2 VSF seamasters now so I’m basically avoiding all VSF divers with threaded crown watches now…..
