budjosh Posted September 21, 2008 Report Share Posted September 21, 2008 I hope this pictures can help us decided the quality of ROO ultimate rep edition. The white dial one is genuine one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CY0811 Posted September 21, 2008 Report Share Posted September 21, 2008 Date mag looks way different on the gen....however the black dial does hide the actual position well. Nice comparison! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iceberg1459 Posted September 21, 2008 Report Share Posted September 21, 2008 imho mag looks slight better in rep lol, in gen it looks somewhat recessed.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Sql_pl Posted September 21, 2008 Report Share Posted September 21, 2008 They did amazing job on that rep! Thanks for these shots! BTW - I guess not everyone knows that Angus has a black themes ROO with lume available now! Not as strong as in rubberclad or white dial but finally lumed!

ExtraExtra Posted September 21, 2008 Report Share Posted September 21, 2008 Thats a good comparison. I was bothered by the date window position and this comparison help reduce/remove that....I mean I can barely tell and would not at all from a few feet away.

rkdk Posted September 21, 2008 Report Share Posted September 21, 2008 holy crap. no one is gonna spot this one. The finish is super close. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rogerthat Posted September 21, 2008 Report Share Posted September 21, 2008 Great comparison, thanks for sharing. Looks great! I did hear these reps had [censored] poor lume, so I was quite happy when I received my White Thames. The lumeis very good, though does not stay bright for very long. Guess the white thames has better lume than the other dials. Cheers, M Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Watchmeister Posted September 21, 2008 Report Share Posted September 21, 2008 Thanks much for the comparison. And I guess the gen date wheel should look more recessed since it has the usual 2894 plate above the datewheel holding the cyclops. It is a great rep.

Emperor Penguin Posted September 22, 2008 Report Share Posted September 22, 2008 The fake looks great! I'm sure I'll be getting lots of poontang meeting chicks at the clubs with it. There are reports that the steel bracelet has an incorrect finish, so the best thing to do is get a gator strap and conversion kit and buckle from TTK. That way, the only way someone can spot the fake is to look specifically for the datewheel, which on the fake is about 1 mm too far to the right, and you must look specifically for that. Hell, I think the datewheel looks better in that position anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rosnik Posted September 22, 2008 Report Share Posted September 22, 2008 Can you please get two REP pictures, like the 3rd and 4th two pitures you get about the GEN? Thank you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubiquitous Posted September 22, 2008 Report Share Posted September 22, 2008 No doubt; this rep is a GREAT looking piece! Now, if only they'd do something to make these modified A7750's a little more reliable.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DuDro Posted September 22, 2008 Report Share Posted September 22, 2008 What happened to the thread that was "tracking" movement failures in these things? Anyone applied the "powdered graphite" approach to help with the reliability? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sander Posted September 22, 2008 Report Share Posted September 22, 2008 The biggest tell for me are the hands. On the gen there is just a thin line around the lume which is much thicker on the rep. Also the part of the hour hand which is connected to the hour wheel (I don Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

budjosh Posted October 11, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 11, 2008 Where do you get the REP Cocco strap? The white dial one is genuine. The croco strap colour is black, it's genuine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
