Found it posted on King's site:

Looks like they improved the sec hand - now the red color does not end before the H:

It is a beauty:

And this one comes with solid case back so the movemnt is no longer an easy tell:

Tempting... but I will wait for the rose gold version to become available first... :)

The '3' position subdial still has the '20' printed higher than the '10'.

That always jumps out at me on the dial, so easily fixable too......

Solid case back is cool, but still stickers on the rotor I bet.

Very sharp, but too bad about The Zigmeister's assessment.

Did The Zigmeister say the Asian 7750 was bad? I though he liked the newer high beat movement. Oil it, service it etc.... and it is a good movement, what did I miss?

Haha I'm aiming for this model too! Any other flaws other the subdial at 3 o'clock where the '20' is not on level with '10'? And by the way for HBB which model is a better replica?

Hi,

tempting with the solid caseback, that make the stickers flaw less obvious.

By the way, did they fix the price issue too..? :lol:

I remember someone mentioning that a big flaw with the rep is the recessed datewheel...

But I tried on a gen at Wempe today and it ALSO has a recessed datewheel.

(BTW, I went to inquire about the Bracelet as an accessory because the rubber is a tad uncomfortable...but it costs more than the watch [rep i mean]!)

Exactly, I have seen 2 Gens recently & both had a recessed wheel. Also have looked over pics on the gen forums that show it recessed regardless ot the color of the wheel, black or white.

Then again, I have seen shots of gens with a flush wheel?

Looks like we are cool with what ever...

Pizzanooo.
