  1. The bezel is the biggest tell. Depper engravings and slightly silverish tint on the numbers on the GEN. So the gen is on the right. Also considering the lighting, the Rolex steel is slightly more yellow (warm) than rep steel. You can actually see that on the photos. Regardless, if not put together it is imposible to tell the difference...

  2. I just purchased this model but go a bit worried about the inner "facet" of the cg as opposed of it being square. After a lot of research it seems there are variations on the gen. Check this picture of a gen (unknown series) with inner edges much more "rounded" or faceted than our reps.... i think this one needs to be reevaluated to supre rep...IF and only if the series produced has rounded or faceted inner corners. If not... this model is a notch above first class and a notch below super rep...just because it may have a cg modeled after another series...i personally don´t mind...

    Chek out this gen:

    Did not attach pic sorry.... Here it is:

  4. Hi everyone I'm completely new to this forum and have just discovered it, what I would like to know is who is currently selling the best example of a rolex sea dweller deep sea, and who is the most trusted and best dealer, thanks all

    The best DSSD is from BK, check the trusted dealers section.

  5. Hi all, this is a great community and a great forum, and this is my first posti!! So here it is:

    I had the same problem and the fix is actually quite simple but requires a little skill. The rotor while it spins, "it Winds The watch" but it does it while it spins in one direction only. When the rotor spins in the other direction, the bearings allow it but the gear it winds is actually "parked" in place.

    The problem with MY watch was that the "parking break" was not engaging so when the rotor was winding in one direcion, it was unwinding the mechanism in the other.

    The solution is to bend the break a little to make it engage the gear properly. I did it and now i have a 2 day power reserve...

    When you remove the rotor you will clearly see the gear the rotor spins, and you will see a spy hole showing a tiny metal "needle" that is supposed to press against it. That needle is supposed to allow the gear to spin in only one direction. You'll get it when you see it. Bend it a little and it will be fixed..

    I also added a little grease to the bearings of the rotor to add a little bit of drag which is good...

    Hope this helps...
