SSTEEL Posted August 6, 2014 Report Share Posted August 6, 2014 Rep, date wheel is left justified, plus cyclops looks off. Also looks like the rounded TC Vintage Insert too, but maybe the lighting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wactch101 Posted August 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 6, 2014 So are you guys guessing rep because of the cyclops and bezel insert? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wactch101 Posted August 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 6, 2014 The bezel insert and crystal are gen, along with the crown. The rest is a rep. It's a BK TW sub Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wactch101 Posted August 7, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 7, 2014 Good good you should get a Sean case as Said the finish on this looks of to gen but Hey its only a couple of hundred watch and a a gen is in thousands It was more than a couple of hundred. Has lasted years and years, a few bad drops but nothing that couldn't be easily fixed. What's a Sean case? The only actual give away on this watch (if you no where to look) is the hand filed grown guards. Not that noticeable but still. A case upgrade might be nice.
