pfran42 Posted July 29, 2008 Report Posted July 29, 2008 The pearl looked off IMHO. What do you think...REP or Gen?
jjfesq Posted July 29, 2008 Report Posted July 29, 2008 Clever pic hiding the CG's--Ill still go w/gen though
By-Tor Posted July 29, 2008 Report Posted July 29, 2008 Guys, please stop posting this kind of posts to the "General Discussion". We have brand-specific subforums for Rolex Panerai TAG Heuer Audemars Piguet Omega Breitling etc. And it's not just this post, I've moved hundreds of these. It's not a big deal, but moving them constantly to the correct areas gets a bit tiresome. It can't be that hard to post a Rolex-related post to the Rolex Area, right? Sorry for nagging about it... carry on! Thanks!
pfran42 Posted July 29, 2008 Author Report Posted July 29, 2008 Sorry By-Tor. I gave it some thought before posting and I was thinking along the general lines of rep vs. gen as opposed to "Rolex" rep vs. gen.
By-Tor Posted July 29, 2008 Report Posted July 29, 2008 Like I said, no biggie. It was more like a general observation, not specially directed at you. I think there are still about 1000 purely PAM-related posts in the "General Discussion" that I should move. It's beyond me why people can't post them to the correct section, which is called "The Panerai Area". Using the "General Discussion" is ok if people want to talk about multiple models at the same time... like "Should I choose TAG or Rolex?" Keeping the posts in the correct subforums helps searching the forum tremendously. The worst thing that other forums have is the separate "Eyecandy" section, which is just a useless duplicate that screws up the whole search function. PS: About the watch... very bad pic. But I think it's gen... the SEL looks good.
P4GTR Posted July 29, 2008 Report Posted July 29, 2008 Personally I can't be 100% sure from one extreme angled pic. Pearl looks good, insert sits nice, but the bezel teeth seem a little smooth. Pic is too grainy. The SEL bothers me a little, but again it could be the pic and I'm no expert.
pfran42 Posted July 29, 2008 Author Report Posted July 29, 2008 Everyone seems to agree that it is gen. And here I was thinking that the pearl looked somewhat like a "zit". I have a lot to learn....
freddy333 Posted July 29, 2008 Report Posted July 29, 2008 Hard to tell from that picture. But here is a good rule of thumb to follow for pictures posted on TZ...... If the poster joined recently (08) and/or has fewer than 50 posts, the watch may be suspect. But if the poster joined in 06 or earlier and/or has 100+posts, chances are that he has posted the pic before & it passed TZ's critical eye, so it is more than likely a gen.
watcher Posted July 29, 2008 Report Posted July 29, 2008 Absolutely gen. Nothing about this watch says rep
