Does anyone have a side by side of the 42mm wholesaleoutlet990 and rep insert?

I can't seem to see any noticeable differences?

Cheers!

As far as pearls, they both suck equally. The only difference I found was the fonts are slightly different and the main difference was the size of the inner silver ring was different with the WSO one closer to gen as I recall. I bought one about a year ago. Who knows if it's still the same.

I wish someone would make a decent insert for the 42 PO.

Thanks for the input. It's a cheap mod and is meant to be worth it so I might just suck it up and go for it

they got nice position but their pearls sucks big time so if you want to use it you have to use your rep pearl on that insert and if i remember right you have to drill a bigger hole to make the rep pearl fit the aftermarket bezel

good luck :)

Cool. If I go through with this i'll ask wiz to do it alongside waterproofing and relume. I'm happy with the watch overall but the greenish lume is a deal breaker for me!

Not the best pic, but I did an insert swap/relume for myself and here is a black rep insert next to the.blue WSO.

Thanks for that! I can definitely see the difference in fonts one the inner ring. Did the standard rep pearl fit the wso insert without drilling? How did you remove the insert?

Cheers
