I know that this one has been done to death but keeping with my macro shot theme, here is another one. *The Omega UPO. *I got this one from Lay. *Maybe someone will benefit from these pics.
** * * *If you like checking out the macro pics check my other threads. *I've been going through my collection and snapping away. *I'll have more Omegas, Breitlings, and Pams to come. *Got a few Rollies to do also. *Hopefully get my hands on a Blackbird soon and maybe even hunt down a Swissfish. *I'm in the market for one. *Enjoy!!!

Here's what were looking at.

I left mine on the rubber strap. *I like the look plus the ss bracelet is a pain in the arse to size.

Let's get a little closer

Thanks buddy. Do you think these macro shots are a waste of time? I figure maybe someone could benefit from these. I know when I was a noob and didn't know what to look for I would loved to see a macro shot.

As far as the watch goes I love it but I wish it had the proper beveled step down edge around the date window.

Hi, I personally like them... Do what you do... if members don't like them, I am sure they will just skip past them. Knowledge is power. Plus it looks like it is fun!

Watch looks great! But more importantly these are phenomenal photos, really brilliant work and it's obvious you have some talent. You should be an official photographer for Omega
judging by the quality of these :)

Awesome shots! As a noob myself, these shots are a great help. I just ordered this exact watch from Lay. Thanks to your pic's I'm more confident than ever in what I ordered. Thanks Snpr!

Wow...thank you but I wouldn't go that far. I'm just learning as I go. These were with a cell phone. I do more serious work with a DSLR. I did a post named Navitimer Fun in the Breitling section that's more my taste. But thank you again all the same. I'll keep snapping away.

Thanks for these macro shots Snpr9696. Like you said, for the average newcomer to rep watches, pictures like this really do help people like myself.

I've also been very interested in purchasing a UPO from Lay at ReplicaMake, so it's nice to see the quality of the watch in better detail.

Out of interest is this the 5th generation UPO, and what movement did you opt for, the Swiss ETA or the Asian ETA?

Thanks in advance.

My is the 45mm UPO lay currently offers with ETA movement. I think the 45mm is a V4 whereas the 42mm is a v5 version. Perhaps someone else can clarify. If you like the macros see the links in my sig line for others.

I'll be doing a Rollie sea dweller tomorrow. I'll also be doing a Chanel J12, Breitling SOSF, BlackBird, Seawolf too.

I've heard that the Swiss version is a better option because it has a more accurate datewheel, not sure if that's entirely true though.
