Which rep is closest to resembling the actual functions of the original? I would have thought adding a GMT hand was a few gears, and the 30s counter is simply different gear ratios. Of course every gear train mod brings the datewheel lower and lower and lower...:)

That GMT really is beautiful...shame it goes for so much in Gen form. Might give it the once-over at an AD.

THis is what my rep looks like, never wear it.

It's for sale ;-)

yeah its gen guys. but seriously, comparing it to my franken SA, nobody could tell wich one is rep vs gen, apart of course geeks with trained eyes.

but built quality of reps is impressive today. they only lack quality control, like the lume dots on seawolf.

i have seen some seawolf's with relume dials and they could almost pass as gen.

Dave, the old 6.75 case has a smaller bezel and the pattern is not the same as the new 6.75 cases (rep and gen) you have to look closely to see the difference. i actually prefer the first version.

its the same with dials, the new 6.75 has bigger metal surronds around the subdials (gen and rep again)

i think that israg's 6.75 combines better of both, even if not accurate to gen.
