No, you purchased an orange PO bezel and hated the fact that you had to pay a watchmaker to take off the black bezel and fit the orange one

Hello,

Im a bit late but for cjcar631, both the PO and the GMT are fakes. The He valve position on both watches is on or below 10 (need a straight on shot) where the genuine is slightly above and the pearl's on both are bulbs where as gen inserts go inwards. Quite sad that it was an "extended family member" that sold him both watches. I guess he didnt want to hear what everyone was telling him.

Ok, I have the exact model and I am wearing it now as I type. Below are my observation by looking at my wrist now, please do not get personal.

1. Don't agree, it is the same like mine.
2. Don't agree, they appear to be the same size like mine.
3. Agree. No way the PO is not showing Purple/Blue tinting under this lighting. Maybe the outer AR-Coating is removed intentionally.
4. Don't agree. The "CO" is bigger and bolder than the "Axial" on my watch too.
5. Don't agree. The are the same like mine with my bare eyes.
6. Agree. The whole Omega logo seems a bit out compare to mine.
7. Agree. The helium valve is higher than ten o'clock on my wrist.
8. Don't agree. Swiss-Made marker is same as mine.
9. Agree on the date. The different is huge. The date is too close to Three o'clock.

Mine just came out from Swatch group for Full maintenance Service so I assume it is authentic.
