Member X Posted May 18, 2009 Report Share Posted May 18, 2009 (edited) Differences apparent to me, a n00b, are DW font, Bezel font, colour of lume?, width of the lume surrounds?, feet on the text... I'm going with the one on the right being gen! Edited May 18, 2009 by Member X Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DemonSlayer Posted May 18, 2009 Report Share Posted May 18, 2009 I say left is genuine based on the rehaut and DW font. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bodster007@hotmail.com Posted May 18, 2009 Report Share Posted May 18, 2009 (edited) id go for one on left being the gen due to the date font, also being able to see the crown etched on the glass on the right one, didnt think that was supposed to be `that` noticable on a gen. probably got us stumped and theyre both reps !!!! lol Edited May 18, 2009 by bodster007@hotmail.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThinkBachs Posted May 18, 2009 Report Share Posted May 18, 2009 Left is the gen, final answer. The biggest give away for me is the difference in case edge finish, then there's that end link fit on the rep, date font... With that said, I'd be happy to wear either one, though preferably the one on the left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bwhitesox Posted May 19, 2009 Report Share Posted May 19, 2009 hhaha I'm going for the one in the middle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d-rock Posted January 25, 2011 Report Share Posted January 25, 2011 I realize this is a very old Thread but the poster never came back to confirm the answer. I'm far from a pro but I'm going with the left as being the gen...bezel font is thinner and cleaner and the gold outlining of the dial markers at 6, 9 and 12 are what I have based my decision on.
