i've got this watch since April/may and found it on M2M sales (the guy was in Singapore and i'm in Europe)
here is a wristcheck :
i can definitely say it's really a good and accurate REP
The GMT function works well and the GMT hand is close to the GEN, as you see datewheel is black and correct (IMO) ;
at 1st sight, this wath is good looking and not easy to say "Hey, it's a REP !"
But, for the story, i did the same as you : asking TDs, getting no answer or getting strange answer ("just pay for it, i'll get it soon..."), and none of them was able to find it.
It's a very rare REP... and B&R watches are not easy to find (whatever the model).
