This is an epic find! Everything looks pretty spot on, only thing I can't tell from our user subbed photos are if the date box is correct with the indented second level as per gen:

Can someone who's got one please shed some light?

Yep, that's the 45mm - I thought they would have the same feature since pretty much all the other features are identical, my bad!

Did anyone buy the 45mm and can shed light? (All the pics from that OmegaForums thread are 45mm btw).

Do any of you think they will make the New with 8900 movement? I kinda want to up grade to this from my Noob crpo. What are the differences in the 8500 and 8900 visually ? Just a new rotor?

I polished my Noob CRPO today, it’s come up like new. The crystal had gone milky and had scratches, polished that and it’s clear again.
it will be on M2M soon

What power reserve have people been getting out of these 8500 clones? Mine stops after 24 hours

I’m in the process of pulling the trigger on a LMPO Noob v5: is this genuinely good enough to compete?

Is the 45.5 mm out of stock also already? Asked from Sead and got this information.

It’s not with me anymore but I’ll tell the new owner to wind the hell out of it and test again

It’s down to personal preference but the 45mm is a big ass watch.

This is the 42mm vs the Submariner

I like my larger watches but I chose the 42mm.

What size did you get?

it’s 42mm, love Planet Oceans and I can wear this with formal and casual attire, I have many 45mm but with a suit they just look odd

The dial:hands:lume:bracelet quality is much better on the VSF IMO.

I don’t even class LMPO as a super-rep due to sloppy lume paint and finish on hour markers.

But I agree that the older 2500 PO wear better (less thick)....but size is a personal thing.
