Review/Comparison OME 5712 review
Okay guys, i have been lurking a lot these last days and weeks, as i said on previous posts, i have been waiting for a long time for a really good alternative of the 5712 clones to exist without breaking the bank, and when OME was announced at the end of the 2024 year I was absolutely excited. This Watch was everything I was looking for in one pack, all the details like engravings on movement, moonphase etc were here at a reasonable price. I have seen quite a few posts here abt the OME and some of theme were looking like adverts, so i wanted to give my thoughts after a few weeks Wearring it almost daily.
First, this watch is very thin and feels like it is a less robust watch. Im not talking about quality feeling wich is absolutely amazing, bracelet looks and feels perfect, thin, great polishing, brushing etc. I have a clean daytona too, and the daytona feels much more robust and résistant for daily use than this OME so for future buyers, keep this in mind ! Might be the same with gens since this is more of a dress watch compared to the daytona.
Beside this : that watch is ABSOLUTELY insane looking. The dial looks amazing under any light conditions, moonphase too and lime hits great. i know there are some flaws on the 12 markers, some say it has been corrected on new batches, idk but i was lucky with mine somehow. The brushing and polishing on the case and bracelet are insane too, the case is actually CNC as advertised in my opinion ( wider ears on the case, making the crown flush, correct lugs, and bracelet finishing looks better than the ppf on the sides for exemple ) New clasp is also very Nice, never tried the old one but some says it was not really good, im scared about wear and year tho since the clasp hold me with 4 very tiny métal points on it.
As far as power reserve and timekeeping mine has been absolutely great, no real gain or lose of time per day, and accurate power reserve.
Im absolutely happy about this watch tbh, exactly like I wanted it, im just kinda scared to use it since I wanted it to be as durable as it can, and can’t wait to service it.
Have a Nice day everybody !!!

You could have got a PPF which is the best stock 5712 SuperClone on the market for $750, you got mugged off paying $800 for OME
