I love my orange PO but I scratched the bezel. General wear. Can I get a new one somewhere?

Good luck finding gen. And yes there are (as mentioned) rep inserts on eBay. But your best move is to comb through M2M sales and see who has what. I recall someone selling a bunch of diff bezels, can't recall if gen it rep but worth a search!

It is.
It's very comfortable on the rubber as well.
All mine are 45. Need a 42mm as well soon.

Jealous!!! I'm still looking for a 45mm one, ordered a 42 to try it out since I can't seem to find a 45mm for some reason. Just reached out to another TD to see if he can find me one. I would have never considered putting it on the orange rubber strap but your pics make me re consider. I think I will order an orange rubber for the 42mm one to try it out. Did you get the band with the watch or ordered it separately from a TD or from another place?

I got the band with the watch off of member 2 member sales earlier this year.
I love the rubber strap. I also love the bracelet but I fell in love with the rubber strap because of seeing the orange rubber first on the genuine Omega at the Omega boutique. Here are some gens on orange rubber form that boutique.

I thought the color of the rep rubber wouldn't be close to the real thing but it looks spot on.

Btw, the pearl on the last pumpkin (on ss bracelet) seems off centered...boutique should have never accepted those qc pics :)

Haha! Bezel is one click off and covered in plastic or I'm sure they would have clicked it over.

Yea, I call bs on a lot of replica worries out there.
Most reps are pretty close these days in my somewhat short experience.
But I do know omega, and it's very close. Not exact on the stitching but close on the color.

I still think the pearl is off centered with the triangle that it sits on :) But yes, I completely agree. This forum is the reason I see/notice things that I otherwise would never. Especially love the photoshopped pics on grid lines that addresses the microscopic misalignments on 10000x zoomed scale lol [emoji23]

Haha!
And to my point,
If this pearl really is off center in the triangle (being a true omega) maybe we sweat it too much on our reps :)

(Also, now that you pointed it out, I think you are correct and I can not in-see it. Lol!)

Couldn't agree more! No one inspects the gens as hard as reps lol. I have seen many SEL or minute maker alignment issues in gens and would have never noticed them nor would I cared if I had not seen all these posts here before :)

[MENTION=132319]zethunder[/MENTION], yes that PO Chrono is an original but had to let go since felt too big and heavy for my lifestyle... Kebab was nice thank you!

Stunning collection [MENTION=88731]hasel53128[/MENTION]! I'm sure you're proud of it but you should reduce your sig pic size for a bit. :lol:
