Here is mine no complaints. I chose the 42mm. I hate to say this but I like it overall more than the moonwatch I use to have



Scratches a different type of itch [for me] ... awesome on the wrist as a chrono too

Thanks I agree the stainless chrono version is a tank but very cool. The definition hits ya more than the non chrono if that makes sense

Holy moly that looks awesome everytime I see it in pics and in person. Are you looking at the new seamaster 300 when it comes out

I saw it in person. At the beginning which I still think I said the PO is a better look. But it's a cool dress up compliment to the PO if that makes sense. If a person can afford the blue liquid metal that looks awesome.

PO LM is a very desirable watch. I concur.
However a month ago during a GTG somebody bring both original PO LM and PO LM replica, a high quality one. It took me 2 minutes with a loupe to find minute differences. It was that scary.

I've only seen pics and discussion of it on the internet. Can you share what you saw as the differences under the loupe ? I guess the obvious one would be the serial number? I don't suppose that the counterfeiters take the trouble to number them individually? Not so sure about box and papers and cards - these would be easier to replicate compared to a caseback!

edit: i just noticed this little engraving on the back of mine. is this a security seal of some sort and did you see it on the replica?

Both serial number and globe logo seal are present in the replica. Few differences exists are in date window & quality of script font. If I don't have the original side by side, I wouldn't be able to tell the difference.
You are right I think the replica will have similar serial number and edition number. I am not sure about the box and papers, since my friend only brought the watch.

LOOvE the LM 2500. I have the standard 2500 with the orange 12,6,9 numbers. I love it but I would gets one in a second instead. I originally got that one because having an SM 300 and a speedy I thought the third one should be a little sportier. Get the LM, it's a perfect watch.

Do you guys bring the watch in for servicing before the 4 year warranty is up? If so what does the servicing cover and are there any charges beyond what is covered in the warranty?

Sorry to bring bad news, but the warranty is for things gone wrong - it doesn't get you a free service.

Ok I would understand that. If so what to expect in terms of costs for a relatively new piece ? I guess my concerns come from this having a 2500 movement (c or d) and I understand that there are service bulletins issued to fix recognized faults , should I expect them to fix it at no cost at least under warranty ?

Not sure what you are saying...is the watch currently functioning properly? If yes, there is no warranty issue, so if you want it serviced you will pay for that. The price for a full service would include the appropriate replacement parts that are needed.
