I suppose that is a rule of thumb, but I am not so sure about that as advice to go on, thing that really bugs me is the rep which looks pretty good (even after ten seconds) but has non-functioning dials or chrono buttons, or can't be set to a time accurately, another bug bear is watches reps that go ten minutes a day out of synch (I have a beautiful PO, with correct logo, sharp printing, gen strap and it loses TEN minutes a day it is an Asian movement... can't wear it).

I know Baltic wrote this long long ago but this is one of the classic posts on this board, together with the comparison post he made later between the rep and the gen. I've just done the same thing, bought a gen (fraid I posted the story on RG), and I must agree with the sentiments that Baltic puts over so well in this post. The rep was good, but there is something oh-so-yee-haa special about the whole experience of going in and buying the gen of the rep you fell in love with. It also shows, once again, that these reps are in the end good for the gen companies - I would not have bought a real one without having had the rep first. Great Post, should have been pinned.... in fact, I think there should be a section about the various Moonies, it is THE watch in my opinion. If Baltic reads this - do you still wear the gen after what? Fifteen months? Update?!

Just wondering if anyone has an opinion on this: eBAY moon watch item number 130186279392 It has a crsytal 'display back' according to seller and pics. is this a genuine model? Interested to know as I would not mind one of these if it was genuine. Thanks!
