gipsy Posted September 5, 2010 Report Posted September 5, 2010 Here to display my first replica.. Month ago I bought Heritage Chrono 46 V2 Rep, and was so happy how it looks like, that I orderd the Genuine from my friend which is able to get nice discount for me. By the mistake from his secretary he brought NON chrono version and told me that I can swap it for chrono if I like. After few days, I decide it is keeper, looking more elegant but still very sporty look which I like. Now comparing Gen and Rep there are two diferences in real life; 1.Gen has softer strap rubber 2.Rep is running late for 2 minutes a day Yes, lume on Gen is wayyyyyy beter, but when I think that my Citizen Skyhawk has excelent lume on it's big hands and houre dots, which I never noticed(yes I did not noticed lume in 3 years wearing skyhawk), than lume is not real life issue for me. Quality of rep case, dial, strap, buckle etc. is so good this days, that I dont feel any beter wearing gen than rep. More so I feel diference on chrono(sporty)- non chrono(more elegant) Few pics taken from tripod with my alpha700, non macro lens, long exposition, and small apperture, bulb light
opti Posted September 6, 2010 Report Posted September 6, 2010 Great photos and thanks for the comparison
bonecollector Posted September 7, 2010 Report Posted September 7, 2010 Great shots! (Waives to fellow A700 user).
Member X Posted September 7, 2010 Report Posted September 7, 2010 Interesting to see how close the rep is to gen! The SOH Really is a super-rep IMO, just needs the lume dots sorting and it's near perfect! Can you get a picture in daylight to compare the AR?
FxrAndy Posted September 7, 2010 Report Posted September 7, 2010 2.Rep is running late for 2 minutes a day Thanks for the comparisons, but i would get the A7750 looked at with that much time loss in 24 hours, 20 seconds ok but 2 min is not in my oppion
StormTooper4 Posted September 7, 2010 Report Posted September 7, 2010 Both stunning watches , you have to smile at the quality of these reps, really outstanding
gipsy Posted September 8, 2010 Author Report Posted September 8, 2010 Interesting to see how close the rep is to gen! The SOH Really is a super-rep IMO, just needs the lume dots sorting and it's near perfect! Can you get a picture in daylight to compare the AR? Here is AR comparsion on Fake and genuine. I think, they are about same perfomance, slight diference in colour and transparency, but noticable only when pixel piping. Boath glasses are double coated as you can notice shade layers overlap on bluish/pinkish shade edge.It must be very similar technology.. BR Gipsy
frankpower88 Posted September 8, 2010 Report Posted September 8, 2010 What a great rep the v2 SOHC is. its unbelieveble, i think its the most accurate rep ever made. and the lume dots on these v2 are perfect too. i wonder if the other dial colors are that good too. And of course very nice gen too!
Member X Posted September 8, 2010 Report Posted September 8, 2010 Awesome comparison, thank you very much! There really is very little difference between the two, the factory has done a stunning job on these
envisagevi Posted September 8, 2010 Report Posted September 8, 2010 I can't fooking tell the difference!!!
