dadog13 Posted February 1, 2007 Report Share Posted February 1, 2007 it is a gorgeus rep...and with that gen dial installed is 99.9% accurate... i love mine...and it has become a collector item...since they stopped it's production... the value of the rep is increasing...A LOT!...in a few years it will be more valuable than the gen!

takashi Posted February 1, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 1, 2007 I received numerous PM for this one too. I guess it's becoming like a legendary SMP Pro from the closed down factory. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
takashi Posted February 1, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 1, 2007 Judging by the dial gap, the genuine case may be smaller in size. Also the 300M on the caseback is the dead giveaway. The model number of E19xxx is also wrong. This one should use Calibre 17. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r11co Posted February 1, 2007 Report Share Posted February 1, 2007 Judging by the dial gap, the genuine case may be smaller in size. Nope! This effect is as a result of the genuine crystal being massively thick!! 3000m depth capability requires it. The rep has a crystal that is the same thickness as that used on the Chrono Avenger gen, so knock a zero off the end. In this respect the caseback is accurate PS. To solve the problem of the gap between the inner bezel ring and the rep crystal just swap the one from your rep dial. I can assure you it is a perfect fit, and thanks to the good AR effect - no-one will ever notice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
takashi Posted February 1, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 1, 2007 Sure. I have been wondering why the gen dial is smaller. Anyhow, I will just leave it as it is. The gap is negligible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r11co Posted February 1, 2007 Report Share Posted February 1, 2007 Sure. I have been wondering why the gen dial is smaller. Then gen dial is identical in size to the rep. It is just the added inner bezel ring that is slightly shallower. The ring is attached to the dial by four little posts that match up to holes perfectly on both dials so the swap is a piece of cake - no need to remove the dial and hands from the movement.

AlexLeGrande Posted February 1, 2007 Report Share Posted February 1, 2007 I bouht this from Jos Nana a while ago. I wear it only with short sleeve shirts due to its great thickness. It can deflect bullets, like Wonder Woman's bracelets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r11co Posted February 1, 2007 Report Share Posted February 1, 2007 its great thickness. ....yet wonderous lightness. It's what titanium was invented for Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

takashi Posted February 2, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 2, 2007 It seems that the finishing on genuine dial rehaut ring is more matte than the rep version. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
