801run Posted May 26, 2009 Report Share Posted May 26, 2009 can someone please post a wristshot of a white-faced on bracelet? Dalame, I'll try to post one after work today! You will love it, it's soo nice!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
801run Posted May 26, 2009 Report Share Posted May 26, 2009 Hi, no my crown isn't screw-down either. I don't think the gen is, since its "only" rated for 100M. Thanks, yes I think you are right, the "older" Carreras as well were not screw down. I did think that for a moment, but could it just be reflection of a dark object? If you look at the black watch (on that japanese website), some of the numbers are also dark due to reflection. Tough call isn't it? Though if the numerals were dark, i'm sure the official pics would show it as - just like the date window ??? Yes, I'm also curious about this. Will make sure to compare the REP with the GEN to check it out next time I'm at the AD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
digitalnrg Posted May 26, 2009 Report Share Posted May 26, 2009 Was checking out the brown dial version yesterday at AD and it looks impressive. I might have to pull the brown dial first . Just get the crystal after market AR and this is as good as gen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
importr Posted May 26, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 26, 2009 The black dial is also as good as gen. The TACHYMETER script is correct....its just the AR that needs sorting really Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was one of the first few who ordered the black dial. Btw, 3 employees at AD argued with me that this watch is definitely size 45mm, not 43mm. I was speechless. Wonder how they keep up with their job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
koolkul Posted June 1, 2009 Report Share Posted June 1, 2009 Mine arrived today - this is my first 'super' rep and I am totally amazed by the quality and feel of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arminvanbuuren Posted June 2, 2009 Report Share Posted June 2, 2009 so what is exactly wrong with the ar? and for those who's had it side by side with the gen (black dial).. how accurate are all the dial colours, feel, etc compared to the gen?

importr Posted June 2, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 2, 2009 Cant comment on the feel, but apart from the G arrow on the TAG badge, the Black dial looks exact to me. All this was detailed in b16a2's review? As for the AR, i was looking at the gen in the AD - which has colourless AR. Absolutely perfect like Chieftangs stuff. The rep AR has very strong blue tint. This is like the difference between the v1 Skyland and the v2 (which has the better AR) Sometimes I feel like removing the top coat on mine! (EDIT) the AR is not an issue with the white dial Day Date Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dvn Posted June 2, 2009 Report Share Posted June 2, 2009 Folks - in case you are interested, i have a brand new white dial for sale at $290 due to my financial constraint, check my for sale post. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arminvanbuuren Posted June 3, 2009 Report Share Posted June 3, 2009 i thought the v2 skyland ar has the blue strong tint.. but oh well.. i guess as long as the rep has that gen feeling.. u cant really notice the diff unless u have it side by side? since the black colour is close.. and well lets just say that even without the arrow i doubt anyone can see it from distance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
