Stu Pitt Posted June 18, 2008 Report Share Posted June 18, 2008 I have a gen silver faced Speedy date. These reps are brilliant. Only other difference that I see from pics is that the labelling on the clasp is a little off with placement but who will notice...no one. I ordered a black face with silver/white dials just compare in the flesh. Can't wait. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stu Pitt Posted June 24, 2008 Report Share Posted June 24, 2008 I have a gen silver faced Speedy date. These reps are brilliant. Only other difference that I see from pics is that the labelling on the clasp is a little off with placement but who will notice...no one. I ordered a black face with silver/white dials just compare in the flesh. Can't wait. Having just received my black dial silver sub dial rep, I compared it to my gen all silver. First, it is very, very close to the original and no one will pick it apart without having extensive knowledge of the original or a gen to compare it to side-by-side. Here are the little differences. small hour markers at 1,2,4,5,7,8,10 and 11 are a bit smaller than the gen and have a dab of paint lume on them which is larger and not square like the gen. The subdial font is bolder and slightly larger than the gen but looks good and more legible. The labeling is in a larger font and the chronometer writing almost touches the trim on the date which is not accurate. Keeping in mind, mine are sitting side-by-side not something someone admiring the watch would notice. The bracelet is dead on but the last link that enters the clasp is a little larger than the gen but no one will see that. And at least on mine the clasp doesn't close as crisp as the gen a little rough. Finish of the watch is amazing and looks exact to the gen. the case back is close but the etching on the 100/333 ft could be deeper and blasted better but for something that no one usually sees it is fairly good. I have no problem passing this one off as a gen. Very impressed! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PPN Posted August 16, 2011 Report Share Posted August 16, 2011 Beautiful. I want one one of these "super reps", but they seem to be out of stock everywhere! Anyone know where I can get one of these Speedies? Especially one in a more traditional black dial, 3210.50? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cougar1 Posted October 13, 2012 Report Share Posted October 13, 2012 Yeah old closed factory rep. Would love if they would get some factory to do them to that quality again. Probably never happen though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
