So you don't see many weight differences with the rep? I am increasingly addressed for the black dial, it seems to me the best in terms of color and black would also be the color I like best. Reading the whole thread I have some other questions: 1) Is black really the best? 2) Is the movement reliable (now some have owned it for 12/15 months)? 3) It does not cost like the gen (400 vs 4000) but it is not free, if you need a revision are there watchmakers who put their hands on it? 4) For $ 20 more you can buy a bracelet + strap, I could think of taking both but is it easy to replace them? I have seen that some users have dropped the Omega symbol from the strap, are there any news? 5) What are the things I need to pay attention to when buying it (it's the first purchase)?

Thank you because I have been "studying" for some time and I have read a lot but I still have doubts. I'm trying to understand how to move to choose a TD (I think everyone is more or less the same) and what are the first steps ... site registration or email / mp? I think I will go with the black dial and bracelet + strap. I have two more questions: 1) in the quality control photos I will receive I have to check the alignments between symbols and writings above all but are there other tips you can give me on what to observe carefully? 2) I have seen that some have posted photos of the quality control here to ask for advice, is it possible for me? I read that it cannot be done if there are no valid reasons but perhaps it refers only to opening a new thread?

Just got my QCs for the VSF green dial AT. Looks pretty good so far. I'll post some pics when I get the watch though I'm terrible at taking good pictures.

Post your pics if you've already accepted! (You are allowed to do this, just not posting ur pics asking for other to do your whole QC for you). Thannks

Here's a few of the pics. They're all pretty bad so I didn't bother posting the rest. I'll post better ones when the watch arrives.

[Alex22]

are the photos you received are these? How did you see if everything was okay?

 

[JYK52800]

It was a bit of a complicated situation. I was buying a couple of different things from the seller at the time and he sent me the QCs in one big batch. I okayed the other things and asked for better pics of the watch but the seller misunderstood me and just sent everything.
I can't really blame him because I was using Google translate to communicate with him and he gave me a truly amazing deal on the watch and the bags I ordered. Oh well, we'll see how it turns out. I'll post pics as soon as I get the watch.

can you only use reddit for advice on QC photos? I have seen several QC discussions on reddit but I don't know if it's worth it, what do you say? I am almost convinced of the black AT 8900. I just have to totally convince myself and understand if the price ratio is cheap (400 rep - 4000 gen).

What happens when you post QC photos and simply asking for help is that you inadvertently get a lot of unfounded comments from the peanut gallery lol. Which is why it's not allowed here... to limit spread of misinformation.

Besides, if you like it, isn't that what matters? If you don't see anything wrong, why ask someone to put doubt in your mind? Just my pseudo philosophical meanderings lol.

In any case, if you get QC and have a specific concern, thennn you can ask for help

Hi all,

New to that community, I'm about to buy an Omega AT Orange / white 8900 from PureTime.

Is it just an impression or Orange / white seems not to be the most love / buy here ?

So far, with all the QC I saw it seems to be a solid rep in that color. Any owner thoughts about that ?

Thanks.

I am convinced. AT 8900 black with bracelet + strap. I just have to decide which TD (I'm on the first purchase so I have the usual doubts). I read a lot and I seem to have understood that the movement is reliable even if it is a clone. Exact? If (I hope not) he has problems or sooner or later a revision can I fix it or do you think it is impossible?

Hi guys, thanks for all the information shared. Great thread!
After having read the thread twice (afraid of receiving any yellow cards ) I did not find the information I was looking for.

By looking at the gen pictures, it seems the rubber strap of the light blue dial is "lighter" then the rubber strap of the deep blue dial. Do you agree on that?

On the contrary, the strap in the two reps (light and deep blue) seems to be the same.

What's your idea?

thanks

 

[jdoc77]

I am noticing some of these come with black straps but the gen looks to be a dark gray strap. Has anyone else noticed this? Is this out of my control?

 

[BigFAT32]

Hi guys, I hope do not break any rules here...

I received my QC picture of my Aqua Terra white / orange from PT, so far everything looks good to me except for date wheel which seems to be off to the left... I asked for more pictures with different time and date.

All the rest seems to be aligned

Can you please let my know your thought about that ?

Here is the full QC album in case you're curious : https://imgur.com/gallery/vAGwjNs

Thank you !

I think about picking up one of these Aqua Terras, I'm just not sure about the size. My wrist size is 6.5"/16.5cm, so more towards the small side. Sadly there are no reps of the smaller Aqua Terra with 38.5mm and I'm afraid the big one might be a bit too big. Is there anyone with a similar sized wrist who is happy with the watch?
My pick would be the white dial with rubber strap as a Summer watch.

Try watching the reviews by Tim Mosso of Watchbox studios on YouTube. He has a 6.3" wrist.

I too have a 6.5" wrist and have a black dial AT 8900 on order.

Thanks! It's a bit on the larger side, but should be OK. So I guess I have to order one soon.
