The Met Gala - Unveiling the Celestial Craftsmanship of Meteorite Dials

[Vietkidd05]

I have had several dials from @Oascom now over the last year and have bought from many TD and non TD in general. LUCKY for me all have been smooth...and it's all personal opinion at the end I know. BUT from my own experience.. I can say @Oascom always delivers on my end and I'm very very satisfied and happy

Outstanding...thank you for the time, work, and education!

Nice post. I think the challenge here is there will be batch variations. Buff alone had at least three different variations ranging from light to dark.

I agree with this and on top of this for example shengshen alone will have different batch every 2 to 3 weeks or so..what I get this week might be totally different from what you get maybe 2 weeks from now .. welcome to the meteorite dial fan club

There is a lot of variation in batches but if you look at Buffs three color ways it was super dark like Nikz, super pale, too white and the middle ground. The middle ground is where they landed and haven’t seen anything else since. And you are right each batch is different but it’s most aesthetics. Some batches have better striations than others and this goes for all of the Chinese batches. So if you find a manufacturer, color and style met dial you like, then it’s just about finding the right pattern that suits you in the batches.

I am very grateful to have never been bitten by the meteorite bug (even though I have two in my collection lol but I’m not very picky about finding the perfect meteorite).

I give it 3 weeks.

What a great post! Love all the comparison shots, in the end I went with what I liked the most given all the different factors to consider. Modder called it “same OEM factory as SW factory”

Do any factories do a Pepsi meteorite OOTB?

Not any good ones as far as I am aware. I think of the "No Name" factories that concentrate on DDs might but I never looked into those.

Heard C+ does one?

Yes, but not well. C+ does it. Looks awful IMO.

The Trusty link shows a met dial resembling a birch tree, lol. A few Reddit links show it in a much better video. It's not the best, but I guess it could be serviceable if you were looking for something OOTB. Again, a lot of this comes down to personal preference. As with anything in the rep world, what can you live with? Obviously, people with more money to spend, they will look for higher-tier quality.

Looks like some kind of imprint... Definitely not a real Meteorite in my opinion

 

[Dr Fun Socks]

Got to say mad props on the post oceaon! This really is the holy bible of rep meteorite daytonas. My head loves it, my wallet is scared…

 

[Tommygunzzzz]

Thought I should add my pictures here for anyone contemplating this crazy journey as well!

“Same OEM factory as SW factory” my modder called it + white gold wrap

What's everyone's opinion on these ?
