  1. actually, the version i bought was the mineral glass version, but i got the glass badly scratched due to a nasty fall, so i got a replacement glass in sapphier from bigwatchforum in exactly same shape and look as the mineral glass.

  2. Thanks all of you for the detailed information!

    Somehow the "marina militaire" looks slightly different on the two watches posted here.Cougarees seems to be more white? Think that is just due to the photographs?

    yes could be the light/angle - you can still see color differents between marina militare and L SWISS L on cougarees dial :drinks:

  3. things to look out for

    Shape of the crownguard,there is a slight "v" shape inside the crownguard.

    on the Gen, the pin the crownguard have a small dent.

    "Marina Militare" and the bars marking the seconds on the dial is laser etched into the dial, and not printet so it apprears slight copper'ish in the color compare to the "L SWISS L" at the bottom that are printed in white letters.

    on the back, many of the rep's have not the correct "treefork", on the gen the bottom is filled out, on many reps this is missing

    and the MM20 showen earlier is a rep, as it is not a Swiss 6497, but it seems to be a russian copy movement.

    last, if it is a gen there should be a 3 part box "inner, outer, woodbox" plus the 2 straps, extra buckel, extra tubes, cloth
