For sure the Proplof's design is pretty polarizing.  But I suppose that's one thing that some owners really like about it.  It's anything but business-as-usual.  And I suppose that if you see the Ocean7 as a relatively inexpensive way to feel like you're experiencing the history of the original, it could be seen as quite a deal.

That being said, I don't think I'd wear it, unless I could do it when no one else is looking. toon1.gif

The case shape is just a little too intense for my tastes, eveything else looks great in my opinion. Im on the fence with this one.

I wear mine, I like mine due to the Case.
The dial needed a little bit of some new design to it, a Freshen Up.
I had troubles with my strap fitting into the Head of the Lugs, Molding Seam.
The Lume on this Dial is Amazing!
The clicks at 58 dont mean a thing to me, IM easysubtlelaugh.gif

I think people are dumping them on the sales forums because so much other stuff came out at the same time after a long wait.

I also think that simple economics made people part with them on over balanced credit cards.

Look at the sales forums now, Not a very big turn around, I see the same watches from one day to the next without anybody Re-Posting, or Bumping them.
Its slowin down for some of us.

Cheers

The world's most unlikely "hommage." It sure took guts (stupidity?) to put the money into this project. Chinese case, odd bezel priniting, 58 clicks. What's to like?

"Cool watch...what's the story behind it?"

"Oh! Thanks! It's a Chinese copy of an Omega..."

No thanks.

Well I just have to laugh after a WIS Buddy pm'd me another huge flame going on at the Dive watch forum/WUS over O7 and the LM-7...apparently if you want your defective 58 click bezel repaired as Mitch stated can be done before Feb.5th on the Flopprof you have to be one of the O7 Sheep!....Baaaasubtlelaugh.gif

Too bad if it was a gift or you bought it an hour after the original owner sold it!!! mistake.gif

Yeah after all the crap surrounding this model I'm wondering if it was a good move for them?:X

Well at least those WIS that held on to the LM-7 (both of them) can get a bezel replacement... oooh and a bracelet that looks just like every other O7 bracelet...subtlelaugh.gif
