Curious to know what you guys think.

I mean, how much better is the UPO selling for 300USD ?

Does it justify the price?


This one is only $60 and so the risk is minimal.

any comments welcome!

Avoid it like the plague!

The movement among the worst I've ever seen, and the seconds hand is all wrong. Not even close to a UPO.

If you want a cheapie, get in touch with Reg (Narikaa) or Lawrence (Houseofsouvenirs)

Good Luck

Has anyone compared the UPO to the genuine, side by side?

How much is the cheapie with Reg? and do they have websites?

I don't like the word 'cheapie'.

The Narikaa/Reg PO is a great watch at a great price but, in no terms, cheap in terms of quality.

When I say "cheapie", I speak solely in terms of price. Quality often varies, even amongst "ultimate" models.

You can drop Reg a line at [email protected] and ask him what he has in stock in terms of Planet Oceans.

My first rep came form bag12.
Total POS.

If you like the size, the UPO is the way to go.

Why don't you use the search-function? There are tons of threads about the UPO, the Poorika and the comparison with a gen. Just my 2c :boohoo:

Wow, this one is ALSO a "Grade 1 Genuine Japanese Watch".

Run away.

The image they provide is a generic GEN photo that dozens of websites are using. Also note the watch in the video is NOT the same as the one in the photo; it has a rubber strap and the 007 second hand.

Not to mention the fact that outside of a used watch I have never seen a PO with the curved link bracelet for less than $100.

If you are just curious about how a PO will look and feel on your wrist and want a cheap one then look at this one from Silix:

So to not clutter your thread, here's links (not IMG tagged) to the photos I took when I bought a couple of these as gifts:

Spent 1 second on this website, says fake straight away. Most trusted dealers would have a QC video.

Photos look like stok images, avoid the site.

Some trusted dealers do a QC video. Some never see the watch they have sent to you.

Having seen the video though, it has perked my interest in this watch... :)

I have purchased PO's from at least three different trusted dealers and all were very good.

I personally like the 42mm.

:popcorn:

I know I was the #2 post, can anyone specifically tell me or give me an idea why the movement was so rough in the video of the automatic?
